    11: Metal and Religion

    The professors explore the various ways in which metal and religion interact, including discussions of religious bands, stigmas on both sides, and the ways in which metal and religion might not be as diametrically opposed as some might think.

    10: Subgenre Series -- Thrash

    The professors continue their series exploring the many subgenres of heavy metal. This time: thrash.
