Customer Reviews
Good dudes and great coverage.
Just wrapped up listening to episode 2 and my head’s reeling. I have a weird relationship with music, so genres and “big albums” that I have no experience with are typically very unapproachable for me. But listening to Matt & Brian explain (in a very approachable way from a place of great reverence, knowledge, and/or open-mindedness) some of their number ones, coming in alternatingly as new & experienced fans, is enlightening and makes me a million times more interested in stuff I had bounced off before. Nice work dudes.
If there was one album I’d like to hear da boys weigh in on, it’d be Hot 97 Summer Jam, the only full album by Chumped. It was a formative pop-punk experience for me, an album that hit at just the right time. But Chumped was a flash in the pan in the grand scheme of things— only around for ~3 years, give or take, before moving on. You can get through their entire discography in about an hour. What kind of legacy can a band leave behind if they only briefly touch down, and do y’all have any favorite one-album wonders?
Album
Check out Mammoth WVH-Eddie’s son. Played every instrument, very talented.
Album suggestion
Guns and Roses/Appetite for Destruction
One of the top 5 selling albums of all time, not a wasted song on the record.
