    Ep. 108 - Metallica in Blacksburg Setlist Preview

    This week, Adam and Orion are joined by TMO fans Matt and Terry. In preparation for their trek to see Metallica take over Lane Stadium in Blacksburg, VA the boys dive into the setlist. Since Metallica has been playing a large variety of songs on this tour, there are a lot of questions to what unique setlist will be played for the rowdy fans of Virginia Tech Football. This is a mix of a fantasy setlist but using frequency data to curate and predict the perfect setlist.     Thanks to setlist.fm for providing all the analytical data for every song that Metallica has played on the M72 One Repeat Weekend tour.     Don't forget to leave us a 5-star review!   Follow us on our Facebook page, The Metal Oasis, on Twitter @themetaloasis, on Instagram @themetaloasispodcast and email themetaloasis@gmail.com

  4. Ep. 105 - Cowboys From Hell by Pantera - Classic Rewind

    Ep. 105 - Cowboys From Hell by Pantera - Classic Rewind

    This week the boys finally dive into the mighty Pantera with their "debut" release Cowboys From Hell! With the album coming up on its 35th anniversary, it is still held in high regard as it continued to wave the metal flag in a tumultuous period in metal history. CFH finds Pantera shedding their glam metal sound and drive head on into groovy trash metal that would ultimately define their sound. With Dimebag's shredding guitars, Rex's locked in bass tone, Vinnie's bombastic drums, and Phil's growling wails, there is no wonder why this catapulted the band into halls of infamy.     So join us as we continue the metal journey and get back to our metal root!   Don't forget to leave us a 5-star review!   Follow us on our Facebook page, The Metal Oasis, on Twitter @themetaloasis, on Instagram @themetaloasispodcast and email themetaloasis@gmail.com

    Ep. 104 - March of the Unheard by The Halo Effect - Album Dive

    Beware the Ides of March! This week the metal journey continues as the boys delve into the In Flames supergroup The Halo Effect with their second album, March of the Unheard! In an effort to move away from the pop sound that In Flames had adopted and back to a harder melodic death metal sound, and this album delivers.  After the redemption Orion gave In Flames last week, will he find a new band to get behind? Join us as we dive into the channel of darkness! Stay tuned to the end of the episode to hear what is our favorite day of the week!  Dont be cruel and leave us a 5-star review!   Follow us on our Facebook page, The Metal Oasis, on Twitter @themetaloasis, on Instagram @themetaloasispodcast and email themetaloasis@gmail.com

    This week the boys are diving into the 2023 release of Foregone by In Flames!

    Ep. 101 - Ascendancy by Trivium - Album Dive

    As the boys kick off the road to 200, where else better to start than back at the roots to dive into Ascendancy by Trivium! On the eve of the album's 20th anniversary, the 2005 metalcore nostalgia is strong with this album. Moving onto the 5th Trivium album review, most TMO listeners know where Adam and Orion stand with this band, but Aaron holds no punches with his honest feelings for what some view as a metalcore classic. Join us as we keep diving through the metal journey, tangents and all! Stay tuned until the end for an interesting dragon story!
