This is Markisan. And yes, Jay is not here, although he will be at some point, but we're recording on a Friday for a change and being in California, Jay's got to get home. So he'll be here when he's here. But who's here? Will's here. So Will. He's almost half a century. And he's fully 100% 00:01:25.440 --> 00:01:55.400 Cancer Free. I am. Yeah. Way to kick its ass, Will. That's right. Yeah. Yeah. Five rounds of radiation and two rounds of chemo. That may do it. It might just do it. I look like shit, but I'm cancer free. Well, we're glad to hear that. We're glad that you are here with us today. Are you sure? Because I'm pretty sure there was like a pool like 00:01:55.420 --> 00:02:25.080 What day is it going to die? Who's going to win the money? No. No Deadpool for you. We were little, but we're not that long. Actually, I'm a little disappointed in that. Somebody should have made some money off this shit. Oh, we did. My insurance is good, but my insurance is not that good. 00:02:25.440 --> 00:02:54.960 The amount of money that is spent to beat cancer, like, fuck, goddamn, thousand dollars. We believed in you, Will. Like, you know, we were going to do a death poll because we knew you were going to whip its ass. Oh, thank you. I appreciate it. I kind of wanted a death poll because I want to see what motherfucker thought I was going to die first. Well, obviously none of us. Well, thank you. I appreciate it. Actually, Jay probably. Yeah, I was just going to say. Yeah, Jay probably was like. I mean, he's always like that. You know, I think we're I think Ozzy's going to I don't think Ozzy's going to be around much longer. 00:02:55.440 --> 00:03:25.340 I don't think Will's going to be around much longer. He's friends with the chemist guys. Fuck him. Oh, I do have a great chemist story. I'll say later. Okay. You could say it now. There's no rules, man. We don't have a guest. No, no. Because I want to get the t-shirt and beer check because we usually do it like five hours in. He wants to do it the first 10 minutes. All right. Here we go. T-shirt and beer check. Like before we start recording, like we're going to do t-shirt and beer check and like the first, like we're going to do it. 00:03:25.440 --> 00:03:54.240 And here we are. Here we are. Mark us on. Okay. So my t-shirt, I am wearing an Iron Flame shirt. It's like Skull Warrior. You know, pretty standard metal stuff. What kind of band is Iron Flame? Power metal. Is it a power? I would say they're more traditional metal. You know, they straddle the line. But the singer, he doesn't go high ever. 00:03:55.000 --> 00:04:24.940 with his voice. So it's traditional metal. It's really good. Okay. And I'm drinking, I just got my brimming horn mead. So I'm drinking this lavender blossom traditional mead. And it's pretty good. The lavender is pretty light in it, but it has a nice delicate aroma. Does it have a bouquet? A bouquet, yes. Comes with flowers. This is kind of a bukkake. Oh my. Not in, 00:04:25.560 --> 00:04:54.520 I'm going to drink at least two of them. Not to anticipate that. All right. Wow. Holy Will can go from bouquet to bukkake. It's a short jump. You missed me. Yeah, man. I'm sticking with the bees. I'm wearing my long sleeve blood incantation shirt. I love how my death model shirts have long sleeves. Goes together like peanut butter and jelly and other stuff. I am drinking a beer called Mirror Universe. It's kind of a kind of staple. 00:04:54.979 --> 00:05:24.560 IPA from my neck of the woods. And then I poured this beer at six o'clock because I thought we were starting at six o'clock, but I didn't want to drink it. And so, John, I'm dedicating this beer to you because it's called Saxy Machismo. It is a bourbon barrel aged quadruple ale with something and habanero peppers. So I'm in for a treat. Matt, I will give you a million dollars if you mail one of those to me. If I can get one, I will. You had me at smoked and then everything else. 00:05:24.620 --> 00:05:54.480 That sounded delicious. Jalapenos and smoked penis. Yeah, it's from Tavor and I only ordered one, but as soon as it comes back up, I'm going to get some. Hey, Matt. Yeah. You can literally pour an IPA, stick a cigarette in that thing, filter it, put it back in the can and set it to a welding bag. It's smoky. In fact, you should do that immediately. Well, weirdly enough, my taste buds are garbage right now. Shoot. So why aren't you just drinking like Bud Light? Right. Well, no, weirdly enough. 00:05:54.640 --> 00:06:24.580 When I eat, everything just tastes like shit. It really does. But one thing that does not taste like crap or shit, if I can say it. Can I say that on this podcast? No, we've cleaned up since you've been here. Oh, really? Yeah, minus the bukkake, you can say whatever you want. No, it was bouquet. Bouquet-key. Bouquet-key. Bouquet-key. None of that's better. No, liquid. Liquid is fine. I can taste orange juice, iced tea. 00:06:24.660 --> 00:06:53.700 I can taste all that stuff. I can taste beer. Wine, though. Wine does not taste great to me. I went up to New York last weekend. I had a nice bottle of wine. I shared it with a special friend. But it did not taste that good. Beer tastes good. Nice. Liquid diet. Good to know. So everything's normal again, is what you're saying. Yes. Everything is normal, Mark Sutton. That's right. 00:06:57.099 --> 00:06:58.260 Okay, Gian. 00:06:59.140 --> 00:07:01.160 All right, so I'm wearing my new 00:07:02.900 --> 00:07:03.620 Death Halloween 00:07:05.020 --> 00:07:05.500 shirt. 00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:09.600 I left my fucking 00:07:09.840 --> 00:07:10.820 death shirt in Michigan and 00:07:11.320 --> 00:07:12.520 the motherfucker hasn't mailed it to me yet. 00:07:12.540 --> 00:07:13.840 You should live on Sleepy Hollow. 00:07:14.680 --> 00:07:15.420 Hell yeah, man. 00:07:16.140 --> 00:07:18.140 The Grim Reaper has been replaced with 00:07:18.280 --> 00:07:20.080 Pumpkinhead, which is kind of cool. 00:07:20.740 --> 00:07:22.200 And then I'm drinking 00:07:23.220 --> 00:07:24.240 now in Virginia. 00:07:25.820 --> 00:07:26.700 Permanent Funeral. 00:07:28.400 --> 00:07:28.660 Nice. 00:07:29.060 --> 00:07:29.940 I have one of those on deck. 00:07:30.520 --> 00:07:30.960 Yes, you do. 00:07:31.290 --> 00:07:35.980 From Three Floyds, which is a club with the band Pig Destroyer. 00:07:36.400 --> 00:07:37.280 Oh, yeah. 00:07:37.580 --> 00:07:38.700 Yeah, and that's all over here. 00:07:39.520 --> 00:07:47.060 I almost bought it, but then I got a beer called Crushing Mass, which was like an imperial coffee stout, and I drank it last night. 00:07:47.070 --> 00:07:49.360 It's like 15.1%. 00:07:49.360 --> 00:07:50.480 I never had that thing before. 00:07:51.040 --> 00:07:51.460 Yes. 00:07:52.639 --> 00:08:21.300 We've been getting three Floyds in small doses the last, I guess, what, three or four years now, Will? No, three or four years now. The last six months, I think. No, no, no. But we've had zombie dust longer than that. About three years. Maybe a year. No, no. Maybe a year. I mean, unless you're doing some bootleg crazy stuff. No, I think Dominion's gotten stuff in the past. They have. Yeah. But maybe not a full release. 00:08:21.500 --> 00:08:51.360 to the whole region. Yeah. Yeah. Maybe that's what it is. Okay. Well, cool that you got that one. Cause it's a really good beer. Yeah. It's showing up everywhere here now. Yum, yum, yum. Yeah. I can usually get zombie dust, which I find that in the can, it is super old and undrinkable. I see gumball head. And then sometimes I see the, uh, the Bavarian hazy, whatever IPA. I'm like, Nope. But if I go to total wine, you can usually get a little bit more variety and get a permanent funeral. 00:08:51.500 --> 00:09:21.460 I have like 60 bottles of gumball head because I had a couple parties here and people just kept bringing that for some reason and I like it but I just have way too much yeah yeah is that the wheat yeah yeah no it's really good but it's not a traditional wheat no no sure like their slogan it's not normal all right well uh well uh you're gonna be checked for me so I'm wearing an Iron Maiden shirt that says 00:09:21.500 --> 00:09:50.500 I'm going to read this backwards. I can't. Some of us grew up listening to Iron Maiden. The cool ones still do. I actually wore this to work today. It was awesome. And then I'm drinking the Victory Golden Monkey, which has been one of my go-to beers because I can actually taste it. I like that. John, you'll be super happy to notice that I've just been crushing a lot of Belgians. 00:09:51.480 --> 00:09:56.240 Yeah, it seems to be with all my taste buds with cancer and radiation that 00:09:57.660 --> 00:10:00.540 Belgium is just something that I can taste consistently. 00:10:01.260 --> 00:10:02.540 Nice. That's well. 00:10:02.740 --> 00:10:17.020 And, you know, going through the Phillies World Series, drinking a local hometown beer right outside Philadelphia, Victories from Downingtown, which is like 20 minutes outside Philadelphia. Like, yeah, I'm drinking this. 00:10:18.260 --> 00:10:46.940 Well, I had a beer the other day that you and I shared a long time ago. I'm trying to get the name of it here for you so I can tell you. And it was in the Brutal Truth Guide to Beer from Cascade. Vlad the Imp had that on tap. Oh, where at? Casual pint. No kidding. Yeah, they had it. Yeah. It's almost like we should go there tomorrow and have one. If only we weren't going somewhere else. Yeah. 00:10:48.260 --> 00:11:16.320 We'll show you the air first and then we go someplace else. We'll shall decide. Well, let me know. Day of birth. I don't like what you're thinking. James and I are talking about getting there, you know, at two, like you said. So if there's pre-gaming, then, you know, let me know. Just get with me in the morning so we can make sure that it's worth doing. I'll just tap you when I'm spooning you. Yeah. 00:11:18.280 --> 00:11:19.060 from across the room. 00:11:19.480 --> 00:11:20.220 Tap again. 00:11:20.220 --> 00:11:20.360 Stop poking me. 00:11:24.500 --> 00:11:25.240 Slow responses. 00:11:25.620 --> 00:11:27.240 That's my half century cock. 00:11:31.620 --> 00:11:33.720 Will, why does your voice sound like Markisan? 00:11:34.020 --> 00:11:34.760 What's going on here? 00:11:36.520 --> 00:11:37.180 It's the chemo. 00:11:37.400 --> 00:11:38.520 Way sexier than me. 00:11:39.340 --> 00:11:41.640 It's like we're going to have a planes, trains, and automobiles scene. 00:11:42.500 --> 00:11:43.480 Those are pillows. 00:11:44.520 --> 00:11:44.780 All right. 00:11:45.060 --> 00:11:46.460 That's not a log of wood. 00:12:17.900 --> 00:12:20.600 I will be getting into the the 00:12:20.980 --> 00:12:24.880 pig destroyer beer next but right now I 00:12:24.940 --> 00:12:28.420 have from Pariah Brewing something 00:12:28.580 --> 00:12:34.020 called juicin Voorhees which is a 00:12:34.020 --> 00:12:37.660 double IPA and if you're using Jason 00:12:37.840 --> 00:12:42.160 Voorhees to market your shitty ass 00:12:42.520 --> 00:12:46.699 juicy hazy IPA fuck you that's pretty 00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:51.620 It's got the hockey mask on the front, but it's like an orange 00:12:52.220 --> 00:12:55.660 that's a hockey mask. It has a little leaf in the stem coming off it 00:12:55.660 --> 00:12:59.120 and eye holes. So I saw that. I was like, well, we've got to buy that. 00:13:00.020 --> 00:13:00.280 You know. 00:13:01.200 --> 00:13:03.360 Hey, George, seeing your shirt, I saw a meme today 00:13:03.720 --> 00:13:05.660 that said, Bed Bathory and Beyond. 00:13:07.040 --> 00:13:08.120 Ooh, that's awesome. 00:13:09.320 --> 00:13:11.060 I had a good laugh. I was like, I like it. 00:13:11.340 --> 00:13:12.160 Ooh, that's good. 00:13:14.000 --> 00:13:43.520 All right, well, we're done with t-shirt and beer check already. Imagine that. Now what do we do? Now we do news. At this point, we'd be about three hours in. Yeah, I know. Good guy. Let's get some news. All right. So first up, 00:13:45.439 --> 00:14:13.240 I heard about this happening, but I didn't realize it was going to be as completely lame as it ended up being. The Metaverse Ozfest, which I heard advertised, and it was a free thing, so I guess you get what you pay for, but I thought it was just going to be like one of these online things, you know, where they do a show and film it and people see it or whatever, but it was basically like Guitar Hero from the videos that I've seen. 00:14:13.980 --> 00:14:43.740 It looked like it was Star Fox from Nintendo 64. It was bad. I watched some of those videos. Yeah, and they even had Motorhead there because, you know, Lemmy's not dead or anything. So if you're not going to have real people there, you can bring in whoever you want. It was like the Wii when you make your little guy or girl. That's what it was like because sometimes they had people in the audience. I mean, not people, but they were, you know, 00:14:43.780 --> 00:15:13.720 digital versions of people. Yeah. And they would have Aussie digital in a cage. And sometimes they would just show videos. Like they had that screen and they would show. I saw a mega dead video. Yeah. It was really weird. I watched a couple of them. I'm like, yeah, it was free. I didn't see the point. She was idea. Probably. Isn't she a bitching about Bruce Dickinson again? Yeah. Yeah. I saw that. So funny. At least she wasn't with an egg throwing distance. Yeah. Just shut off. 00:15:15.620 --> 00:15:42.000 Yeah. Haven't you left the country yet? Oh, wait. She's going to the country where he lives. So I didn't even hear about this metaverse Ozzfest until you put it in the news, George. Yeah. I just saw like a headline or something like on Facebook or something talking about it. And I was like, oh, okay, whatever. And then I paid no attention to it until it was after it happened. And then I started seeing the reviews of how bad it was and said, all right, well, let me look at some of these videos. 00:15:42.600 --> 00:16:11.980 Was it bad because it was the metaverse? It was bad because it was the metaverse. It was just all animated bullshit of, you know. That's why, like, when I saw the Motorhead thing, I was like, I thought Motorhead, like, doesn't play anymore. And then, like, nobody said anything. And I was like, is this, like, a cover being or something? And then, like, no, it's Motorhead. And it was only Lemmy. You know, they only had visuals of Lemmy. Sure, sure. Yeah, they didn't have any of the other band members. 00:16:12.100 --> 00:16:41.700 Same thing with Ozzy too. Just Ozzy on there. So. It was really weird. I don't know if anybody. I don't know why you'd want to watch that. I don't know if anybody actually. Played live or not. I would assume not. That it was all just. Here's some content. Put it up there. I don't know. That's why it gets a super, super lame. I got one word for you. Sharon. Sharon. And I'm wondering if they're going to do more of these because it doesn't seem like it was well received. 00:16:42.120 --> 00:16:42.960 Yeah, let's hope not. 00:16:45.060 --> 00:16:46.220 We've talked about her enough. 00:16:46.480 --> 00:16:51.560 Yeah, so moving on to another artist that has never been contentious. 00:16:52.780 --> 00:16:59.180 Judas Priest performed with K.K. Downing at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and Rob called it magical. 00:17:01.180 --> 00:17:04.480 So what sort of odds are we placing on reunion here with K.K.? 00:17:04.480 --> 00:17:05.000 Oh, it's happening. 00:17:05.480 --> 00:17:05.620 Yeah. 00:17:06.180 --> 00:17:06.819 I'm convinced. 00:17:07.020 --> 00:17:09.220 I mean, they all took pictures together. 00:17:09.300 --> 00:17:09.839 They got along. 00:17:10.699 --> 00:17:40.100 They just got to finish their current tour and then it's going to happen. So who does he replace? Faulkner or? Oh, no. Richie still. Sneak. They just keep them all. I actually joke they should just do the Iron Maiden thing and have all three of them. Yeah. I mean, it's going to happen. It just everyone seemed to get along. Maybe it was just the event and it won't happen, but I hope it does. But it was cool to see them all on stage. 00:17:40.700 --> 00:18:08.860 It's cool to see Les Binks and Scott Travis playing together too at the same time. And Glenn got out there and actually played, which he's looking really hard on stage. You said hot. Hot and hot. I was going to say hot mess, to be honest with you, but I felt that might be a poor taste considering his physical condition. Yeah, he looked hot and hard. He looked good. Okay, you feel better? 00:18:10.700 --> 00:18:40.640 It just was sad to see him. Look, they're playing. I mean, it was cool to see him playing, but I remember seeing him early on and he was just so into the shows now he can barely stay out there that long. So it's too bad. But who knows? Maybe they all made up finally. Or made up. Made out, made up. Who cares? Whatever works. It could have just been cordial because it's only, you know, a couple hours or whatever. I suppose they had to practice though. Yeah. So they spent more time together than we know. It's just the dumbest fight. 00:18:40.680 --> 00:18:41.540 in the world ever. 00:18:43.280 --> 00:18:45.480 I saw that Richie wasn't inducted. 00:18:46.420 --> 00:18:46.540 Yeah. 00:18:47.000 --> 00:18:47.640 And it's, 00:18:47.800 --> 00:18:48.180 it's a, 00:18:48.920 --> 00:18:49.100 the, 00:18:49.180 --> 00:18:51.040 the excuse for it is, 00:18:51.200 --> 00:18:51.320 Oh, 00:18:51.400 --> 00:18:52.880 he didn't play any classic albums. 00:18:53.640 --> 00:18:53.980 And so he, 00:18:54.040 --> 00:18:55.240 so he's been in a band for like, 00:18:55.340 --> 00:18:55.480 what? 00:18:56.260 --> 00:18:56.720 10 years, 00:18:57.120 --> 00:18:57.420 12 years. 00:18:58.040 --> 00:18:59.660 Les Binks was in the band for like three years, 00:18:59.820 --> 00:19:01.020 but he was on a classic album. 00:19:01.360 --> 00:19:03.980 It's like everyone in the grateful dead, 00:19:04.160 --> 00:19:05.560 literally anyone has played with them. 00:19:06.560 --> 00:19:07.060 Some dude, 00:19:07.400 --> 00:19:10.340 like in a loincloth hitting a triangle is in, 00:19:10.380 --> 00:19:11.160 in the Hall of Fame. 00:19:12.780 --> 00:19:13.560 You know, so. 00:19:14.980 --> 00:19:17.100 Yeah, the whole band should just get inducted. 00:19:17.380 --> 00:19:17.760 Exactly. 00:19:18.760 --> 00:19:19.560 It's stupid. 00:19:19.960 --> 00:19:23.480 I mean, here's the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, so you know they're going to fuck everything up anyways. 00:19:23.800 --> 00:19:25.440 Yeah, I mean, exactly. 00:19:25.660 --> 00:19:26.620 It's the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. 00:19:28.580 --> 00:19:34.260 Along the same lines, you guys notice that if you listen to SiriusXM and Ozzy's Boneyard, 00:19:34.920 --> 00:19:36.740 that now that the 00:19:37.800 --> 00:19:38.880 black album, 00:19:39.880 --> 00:19:40.820 the worst fucking 00:19:41.340 --> 00:19:42.780 piece of garbage shit ever 00:19:44.260 --> 00:19:45.280 vomited forth 00:19:45.820 --> 00:19:46.520 on planet Earth 00:19:47.340 --> 00:19:49.580 is now being played 00:19:49.630 --> 00:19:50.160 in rotation 00:19:50.820 --> 00:19:52.220 because it hit that 00:19:52.290 --> 00:19:52.960 like whatever, 00:19:53.110 --> 00:19:53.860 20-year mark? 00:19:54.200 --> 00:19:54.440 30. 00:19:54.770 --> 00:19:54.920 30. 00:19:55.260 --> 00:19:55.420 30. 00:19:55.450 --> 00:19:56.160 Or whatever, 00:19:56.440 --> 00:19:56.540 30. 00:19:56.730 --> 00:19:58.480 So I think... 00:19:59.580 --> 00:20:00.380 Now it's classic 00:20:01.140 --> 00:20:01.740 that you're saying? 00:20:02.070 --> 00:20:02.700 Yeah, sorry. 00:20:02.740 --> 00:20:05.960 I'm like I can't do the math right now 00:20:06.760 --> 00:20:08.200 but yeah now they hit that like 00:20:08.380 --> 00:20:10.700 20 year mark or 30 year mark 00:20:10.780 --> 00:20:12.560 he's like oh yeah it's classic so now we're gonna play 00:20:12.720 --> 00:20:14.520 all the fucking time and now they start 00:20:14.640 --> 00:20:16.600 playing newer stuff they played 00:20:16.700 --> 00:20:18.360 something on like load or reload 00:20:18.840 --> 00:20:20.500 and I was guessing this by the 00:20:21.080 --> 00:20:22.740 like little avatar 00:20:23.880 --> 00:20:24.520 that they played 00:20:24.700 --> 00:20:25.300 and I 00:20:26.780 --> 00:20:28.480 William was in the car with me and my son 00:20:29.280 --> 00:20:30.580 and like this is new italica 00:20:30.700 --> 00:20:32.720 he's like is this pop 00:20:32.740 --> 00:21:02.660 It was like some ballad garbage bullshit. Anyway, now Ozzy's Boat Yard is kind of ruined for me now because now they play all this crap. Oh, was Jose on? No, he wasn't on. It was just whoever. He was like, hey, it's 30 years now. We can play this. Well, if it's Jim Florentine, maybe it's on his metal budget show or something. Yeah, he plays some stupid shit on there. He'll pull out cool tunes. 00:21:02.740 --> 00:21:32.600 And you're like, damn it. He always plays accept. And I hate that. Yeah, always. Which is cool once in a while, but not every episode. Unless you have young kids and they say balls to the wall. I was going to say, was accept quoted in our group message today? Or was that ACDC? No, it was Bells. Damn it. Okay. You're right. That was off of Dirty Deeds. That's right. Correct. 00:21:33.500 --> 00:22:00.260 And they're done. Dirt motherfucking cheap. Just like that. I don't remember the motherfucking being in there, John. That was the live version from... So, Marcus, you know how they're redoing every show and they're changing characters and making things look not the same for shows that shouldn't be redone. And I just kind of brought that back or brought that into modern times. That's all. Let's hope it makes its way into the metaverse. Yeah. 00:22:04.480 --> 00:22:31.440 The Meta Heads Podcast. Fucking Metaverse. I'm actually kind of surprised that Metallica was not the first one to jump in that Metaverse. They seem like, hey, this sounds like a great idea, even though it's garbage. Like, let's do this. Let's play St. Anger in the Metaverse and everyone will love it. I could just see Lars, you know how he likes to sit and lean forward when he talks? I could just see him trying to explain it and just be like, just stop talking. 00:22:31.620 --> 00:22:33.240 We don't want a hologram clip. 00:22:33.640 --> 00:22:41.360 Like, I have this art painting here and this bottle of Chianti that has been aging together. 00:22:41.620 --> 00:22:59.500 And I thought it would be a great idea that if we take this Chianti that's from 1999 and this thing that if we play this song and James goes, oh yeah, 500 times, I think it would be a great thing in the metaverse. 00:23:02.580 --> 00:23:27.720 George doesn't look thrilled by our intelligent talk. I'm just like, Will, why are you holding back? Tell us what you really think. Literally, we were listening to Ozzy's Boneyard and something off Load or Reload came on and I said, kids, listen to this. I didn't say anything. I just said, kids, listen to this. And the first thing my son says, this sounds like pop garbage. He ain't saying garbage. He says, this sounds like pop music, dad. It's like comparable to Taylor Swift. 00:23:29.540 --> 00:23:58.300 I said, this is Metallica and his soul died. He's on life support now. Thank you, James. My son's about to die. In the first four letters of Metallica are meta. There it is right there. It's like anytime you've missed well, you're just packing it in in these first 30 minutes. It's all how Hanson 00:23:58.320 --> 00:23:59.980 I'll be quiet now. 00:24:00.190 --> 00:24:01.740 And I was, 00:24:02.500 --> 00:24:02.780 I was, 00:24:02.810 --> 00:24:03.940 is there another stand back? 00:24:04.120 --> 00:24:05.180 Cause I want to give you guys enough, 00:24:05.950 --> 00:24:06.040 uh, 00:24:06.800 --> 00:24:09.640 intellectual room to trash Metallica as well. 00:24:11.240 --> 00:24:12.580 I just want to hear you do math again. 00:24:14.100 --> 00:24:15.260 I suck at math. 00:24:17.400 --> 00:24:18.240 That's not the only thing. 00:24:19.660 --> 00:24:19.940 Oh, 00:24:20.400 --> 00:24:20.640 Oh boy. 00:24:21.240 --> 00:24:21.700 Oh my. 00:24:22.160 --> 00:24:22.860 Testy in here. 00:24:23.220 --> 00:24:23.400 Hello. 00:24:24.180 --> 00:24:24.440 Testy, 00:24:24.640 --> 00:24:24.860 testy. 00:24:24.940 --> 00:24:25.100 One, 00:24:25.260 --> 00:24:25.340 two, 00:24:25.580 --> 00:24:25.660 three. 00:24:26.180 --> 00:24:26.340 Yeah. 00:24:26.620 --> 00:24:27.020 I mean, 00:24:27.070 --> 00:24:28.060 as long as I don't have to like, 00:24:31.580 --> 00:24:33.260 He only works in meters. 00:24:36.800 --> 00:24:37.080 All right. 00:24:37.130 --> 00:24:47.540 So the next one, unfortunately, Jay's not here for, but apparently Merciful Fate is planning to release two new songs. 00:24:48.280 --> 00:24:55.160 One they've been playing live that everybody's been hearing, and then another one that they've been working on. 00:24:56.640 --> 00:25:24.800 And then King Diamond's going to do an album. I don't know why they have to go back and forth like that, but that is what is happening, and I'm looking forward to hearing it. So I'm going to make a few super ignorant statements. I'm going to ask a couple of super ignorant questions. I'm not the biggest Merciful Fate King Diamond fan because the vocals are just a little too much for me. However, 00:25:26.640 --> 00:25:56.180 Is King Diamond completely separate entity from Merciful Fate? Yes. Okay. I think they share one musician other than King Diamond. Wait, sorry. Isn't King Diamond like the main guy? Yes. But then I think they share a guitar player. Otherwise, he has a dude from entities. Yeah. More kind of solo stuff. How different is King Diamond from Merciful Fate? Or is it the same? 00:25:56.620 --> 00:26:26.320 Well, I don't know about more recently, but back in the day, when the first couple, like the first Kicking Diamond one, Fatal Portrait, his vocals shot through the roof on that album. Merciful Fate was a lot more mid-range with the occasional highs, a better mix. And then he put out Fatal Portrait, which to this day I'm not a big fan of because it was just super high the whole time. 00:26:26.640 --> 00:26:28.440 And then like Abigail, 00:26:28.980 --> 00:26:30.360 he brought it back down into a more 00:26:31.420 --> 00:26:32.420 listenable range for me. 00:26:33.880 --> 00:26:34.220 And 00:26:35.360 --> 00:26:36.220 then from there on out, 00:26:36.340 --> 00:26:37.220 he's kind of mixed it up a bit. 00:26:37.300 --> 00:26:38.780 So I would guess like now it's, 00:26:39.060 --> 00:26:40.080 they're probably about equal. 00:26:41.980 --> 00:26:42.160 Yeah. 00:26:43.260 --> 00:26:43.520 Okay. 00:26:44.820 --> 00:26:45.500 One thing to note, 00:26:45.740 --> 00:26:45.820 George, 00:26:46.660 --> 00:26:48.020 on the question we were talking about, 00:26:48.700 --> 00:26:49.860 I think what you were talking about, 00:26:50.360 --> 00:26:51.060 you have Big Dig. 00:26:52.760 --> 00:26:54.480 Didn't King have like the Institute album 00:26:54.940 --> 00:26:55.700 he was working on? 00:26:55.740 --> 00:27:25.720 I know we got like a track when he did that tour back in you know before the pandemic that's true I saw I felt like he was pushing towards an album and then I never did that and then I feel like after the fact the whole merciful fate thing kind of came up and that's where that's where I'm figuring where well we'll get a King Diamond album before we get a merciful fate album that makes sense but you know I don't know shit about shit no that's very good point I had forgotten about that yeah I mean it was it feels like decades ago 00:27:25.760 --> 00:27:55.340 With it being pretty epidemic. I know. So, Marcus, I just want to slip this in before I forget. I want to slip it in with my French fried potatoes. Sometimes I like tater tots. They're yummy. Sometimes. Tater tots are always good. I think in honor of both Elton John and Will's return, this episode, 00:27:55.780 --> 00:27:57.000 The Bitch Is Back. 00:28:00.700 --> 00:28:00.960 Okay. 00:28:01.980 --> 00:28:04.520 I don't understand why you're talking about him, John. 00:28:05.760 --> 00:28:06.100 How? 00:28:07.180 --> 00:28:08.420 Because that's the name of his song? 00:28:08.580 --> 00:28:10.420 Why has Will gone Sling Blade? 00:28:11.620 --> 00:28:12.520 What's going on? 00:28:12.980 --> 00:28:13.500 Yeah, I know. 00:28:13.620 --> 00:28:14.740 You never go full Sling Blade. 00:28:14.820 --> 00:28:15.460 This is what happens. 00:28:16.000 --> 00:28:18.100 Everybody knows you don't go full Sling Blade. 00:28:21.780 --> 00:28:25.180 The rest of this episode will be played by Billy Bob Thornton. 00:28:29.140 --> 00:28:55.140 All right. All right. So our last news item. George likes it when I come in his face. Oh, boy. Which I think he's about to do based on this next and final news item. Oh, yeah. He's going to be pretty excited that the new obituary album is arriving in January on the 13th of January, which is not that far away. 00:28:55.560 --> 00:29:24.400 There's some heavy hitters knocking off the start of 2023 already. Heavy hitters. Yeah. Sorry. Will is just losing his shit over there. He can't stop laughing. He forgot how to be on the Metalheads podcast. He's turning purple. What am I supposed to do? So, Will, are you excited for the new obituary? Oh, geez. 00:29:30.800 --> 00:29:54.600 They're just boys. Boys not talk about their penises. I'll talk about a little bit. I mean, Will is turning 50 tomorrow, so I guess we've got to let this go. In a couple of hours. We only have a few hours. That's true. We're almost there. We're on the cusp. 00:29:55.560 --> 00:30:25.260 We were moving at a nice clip there. The edge of 15. You're like the edge of your skin right now. Yeah. So, obituary? Anything? Anything? I will have a very, very, very proud moment tonight. So, obituary has been playing on liquid metal, I guess. Along with Metallica. Oh, wait, that's funny. I have obituary, like starred in my series. 00:30:25.560 --> 00:30:55.520 I like radio you know this so pops up so I do this game with my kids where if they can guess like certain songs they either get money or something like that so it's like so for example tonight was like if they play master puppets I'm like you need to know the song you know the band the song and the album and they're like oh man okay and they usually get it like something like master puppets they know that but tonight obituary played because it played last night and I 00:30:55.520 --> 00:31:25.360 I said, like, you guys get this. Just the name of the band, you get 30 bucks. They didn't get it. So tonight, I think it was Wrong Time, which is the single that came out for obituary play tonight on Liquid Metal. I said, all right, guys, 25 bucks. You guys get this? 25 bucks. Laying it out there, 25 bucks. Almost immediately, both of them, like, obituary. I'm like, yes. I've never been so happy to lose $50. 00:31:25.360 --> 00:31:54.780 My children, you know. Why don't they get $12.50? Huh? No, when you're that, so I do the same thing with my kids, Will, and I will give them as much money as they want if they know. Granted, we're more in the classic rock era, but when they can tell me like a song by Led Zeppelin and the name of it, I'm a happy dad. If we get to obituary, I would probably have to wear a diaper with that love. My kids are very good with like anything Black Sabbath, 00:31:55.380 --> 00:31:55.580 Oh, 00:31:55.580 --> 00:31:56.680 old Metallica, 00:31:58.440 --> 00:31:58.760 Megadeth. 00:31:58.820 --> 00:31:59.840 They're not good with Slayer. 00:32:00.020 --> 00:32:01.080 They're not good with Anthrax. 00:32:01.600 --> 00:32:02.420 So like motorhead, 00:32:02.500 --> 00:32:02.940 like the other day, 00:32:03.000 --> 00:32:03.260 I'm like, 00:32:03.480 --> 00:32:03.720 okay. 00:32:04.460 --> 00:32:04.780 Uh, 00:32:05.200 --> 00:32:05.660 and it was, 00:32:05.720 --> 00:32:05.820 uh, 00:32:06.160 --> 00:32:06.740 killed by death. 00:32:06.940 --> 00:32:07.580 They came on the radio. 00:32:07.960 --> 00:32:09.240 So I blank out the screen. 00:32:09.440 --> 00:32:09.660 I'm like, 00:32:09.780 --> 00:32:09.920 okay, 00:32:10.060 --> 00:32:10.180 guys, 00:32:10.980 --> 00:32:11.680 I turn it down. 00:32:11.740 --> 00:32:11.960 I'm like, 00:32:12.080 --> 00:32:12.240 okay, 00:32:13.560 --> 00:32:14.440 you guys get a dollar. 00:32:14.620 --> 00:32:17.520 If you can tell me the band and the name of the song. 00:32:17.760 --> 00:32:18.520 And like, 00:32:18.520 --> 00:32:19.180 I turn it up, 00:32:19.500 --> 00:32:20.060 turn the screen off. 00:32:20.060 --> 00:32:20.420 It was like, 00:32:22.040 --> 00:32:22.140 uh, 00:32:23.080 --> 00:32:23.200 yeah. 00:32:24.220 --> 00:32:24.280 Uh, 00:32:24.960 --> 00:32:54.900 I'm like, okay. My kids, my kids are becoming savants. That's all I want to know. That's all I care about. Wait, you go from a dollar to $50? Wow. Like if they know, like, like if they've heard like Metallica, if they've heard Master of Puppets, they know. They've heard that a million times. They know it. These songs are weighted, Marcus, based on the popularity of the band. I mean, obituary is not as popular as Metallica. Right. But like, but they've heard obituary a million times. 00:32:56.360 --> 00:33:23.580 So it's like if you can identify obituary in this new song, just, and this is what I tell my kids, like listen to the guitar tone, listen to the vocals, listen to all that stuff, like listen to all of it. Don't just throw out like Iron Maiden, Juice, Priest, whatever, like listen to it. Tell me, like okay, you know it's Metallica, listen to the guitar tone. Which album is it? This is what I'm trying to teach my kids and it's slowly creeping in. 00:33:24.300 --> 00:33:53.980 I'm waiting for them to be able to identify the cannibal corpse songs. Oh, that's fucked with a knife. Well, weirdly enough tonight, there was carcass that came on. I said, hey, this is a band that's from the night king that starts to the sea. And the first thing that Evelyn said was cannibal corpse. I'm like, nope. They are from Buffalo slash Tampa. It's not them, but they know it. But my kids have both said that we don't like death metal. We want to be able to understand what they're saying. 00:33:56.640 --> 00:34:23.700 That breaks your heart a little, right? It's got to. It's going to take time. Yeah, you still have some training to do. The kids are going to be posers, man. It's not like they said, like, oh, we like Taylor Swift because we like this. It's more like, no, we're not the biggest fan of Death Model. We want to hear what they're saying. All right, so they can hang out with TR. Yeah, they're good. They're still listening to Maiden and Dio and Chemist, so they're good. Yeah. I took them to Iron Man the other night. Yeah, I took Evelyn to Chemist the other night. 00:34:24.300 --> 00:34:44.600 Yeah. No, my kids are good. Have no fear. All right. And I mean, I don't know that Taylor Swift's lyrics are really all that understandable. So whatever. Yeah. True enough. All right. All right. Let's move on to new releases. 00:34:54.300 --> 00:35:24.200 First up is the new Black Anvil album, Regenesis. It's their fifth album, and they're a New York black thrash band. Did anybody listen to this? I know we've had the promo for a little while, I think. Yeah, I gave it a spin. Yeah? What'd you think? So I was a big fan of their last one. It was called As Was, and they've kind of ventured away from that kind of black and thrash to be a little more black and prog. But without getting overly prog, 00:35:24.300 --> 00:35:54.260 I thought it was nice balance and they kind of reverted back a little bit on this one they keep honing their sounding job it was fine I just need to give it more time it did pretty well on a certain magazines list that eventually we'll talk about but I think I kind of preferred them as was I didn't really didn't really get into this that much I wasn't nothing caught me and hooked me in I should say it's not that it's a bad 00:35:54.300 --> 00:35:57.360 get hooked onto it so yeah well it's a good thing we don't have anything like an old 00:35:57.540 --> 00:36:02.200 proggy coming up there's just a lot more going on i think it's one of those things you got to spin it 00:36:02.950 --> 00:36:07.560 more because as was is a lot more immediate which which i liked about that um but i like they're doing 00:36:07.720 --> 00:36:12.080 something different it just it'll probably take multiple spins to really get into it but i thought it 00:36:12.080 --> 00:36:18.180 was pretty solid the first couple listens i was i was totally expecting as was part two and so i was a 00:36:18.240 --> 00:36:23.000 little little shocked but like to what you guys are saying i probably only spun it once just because i 00:36:23.000 --> 00:36:51.940 I mean, to me, it felt a little bit longer. And so I just haven't come back around. So it does need some more time. Okay. So next up, we have Candlemas and their new album, Sweet Evil Sons, their 12th album, I believe. And that just came out today. Hours ago. Yes, yes. I bought it this morning. I was only able to get about halfway through, but I'm definitely digging it. I like Johan back in the saddle again. 00:36:54.020 --> 00:36:56.700 You know, I mean, Messiah is always going to be my man, but 00:36:58.140 --> 00:37:00.980 and you know, and Robert Lowe's no slouch either, but 00:37:02.160 --> 00:37:03.160 I'm digging it. So 00:37:03.980 --> 00:37:06.640 I mean, I think this incarnation of Johan's the best 00:37:07.420 --> 00:37:11.860 because he's got that deeper voice. It's like weathered, but I was really 00:37:12.660 --> 00:37:16.380 underwhelmed by the first single they put out. I just, I didn't think it was very good 00:37:17.280 --> 00:37:21.800 and I was worried that I'd have to write this album off, but I listened to it today and I think 00:37:21.800 --> 00:37:51.780 as a whole the LP is much better than that one track. So it's got a pretty great occult feel to it. Johan's vocals are really good. The guitar work is thunderous, stirring on almost all the tracks. So I was really getting into it, listening. It's like an hour long, so it's a pretty good length. Hey, there's a soundbite. But yeah, I think it's 00:37:51.820 --> 00:38:20.560 It affected me more than I thought. I thought it wasn't going to be as good as the last one. Jay, what do you think? I think it's pretty good. I really like it. It's pretty good. Okay, thanks, Jay. You doing John Candy there from one of his old films? I think maybe. Jay with the deep voice suddenly becomes a chipmunk. That was Uncle Buck. Yes, I'm glad somebody got that. Thank you, Matt. Is there a little similarity there, huh? 00:38:25.180 --> 00:38:51.580 Next up, we have the brand new Devin Townsend album, Lightwork. It's his 9,251st album. I wasn't even going to try and figure that out. I just guessed. I think it's like his 22nd with his name on it. Yeah, I don't know. Between Devin Townsend, Devin Townsend Project, Devin Townsend Band. I don't fucking know. I can't keep up. Yeah, so we're there. 00:38:51.820 --> 00:39:21.780 will be no official count. But hello, Devin Townsend, Lightwork. There's a second part called Nightwork, or if you just get the deluxe edition, it's just one giant Lightwork. And I fucking love this album. So, John, what do you think? Yeah, I do too. I mean, I'm a super fan. You guys know that already. So I like almost everything he does. There's some things I'm not big on, but he has so many damn albums and 00:39:22.320 --> 00:39:51.240 He's so prolific. I actually thought of this the other day, and I'm sure that... I don't know. It just depends on how many people we think actually listen to us. But I'm going to make a statement about him that I'm sure some ass clown out in the world somewhere would be pissed about. But he's almost like a modern-day David Bowie in the sense that his catalog keeps changing every couple of albums. And after a while, when you've got like 30 albums out, you realize, maybe I like half of them, the other half I don't, but the half I like, I love. 00:39:51.300 --> 00:40:21.280 He just is all over the place. And he's again, and I'm not saying he sounds like David Bowie. He's that popular. It's just he has that kind of mentality for putting out work. It's cool. Evolving. Yes. It's a positive album. And I actually, the reason why I like it as much is because it is positive. I'm so sick of all the complaining and bitching. Are you really? Because you're going to love our top five. Yeah, exactly. No, I mean, I get it. Some people aren't big because it's 00:40:22.340 --> 00:40:51.240 It's got heavy moments in the second album. Nightwork has more heavy songs and metal songs on it. If you listen with your headphones, you can hear heavy guitars, but it's not immediate. You have to actually focus on it. That's one of the things I like is that at first glance, even though it's at first listen, you might go, wow, this is super poppy because there's a lot of audio fluff on top. 00:40:51.300 --> 00:41:20.720 that's light and easy to listen to. But if you listen, most of these songs have a pretty heavy foundation with a lot of chunka, chunka, chunka and some riffs in there that are kind of, you know, taking second fiddle to the synths and the things like that. But it's still pretty heavy. If you took that stuff off, you'd go, oh yeah, this is a heavy record. It's almost like he's simmering underneath, like he's magma in a volcano and he's waiting to blow up again. 00:41:20.840 --> 00:41:50.800 because he throws a few hints out there in the second disc but it's his COVID album. He gets a little screamy on the second disc. It's his COVID album so it was him managing himself through COVID and he wrote a lot of these songs there and that so that's why it ended up being fairly a positive uplifting theme to the album. I have people I know that think it's absolutely tremendous and there's other people like it didn't do anything for me so it's 00:41:51.359 --> 00:42:17.660 What is the expression? Six of one, half of another? That's how I look at it. I like it. I enjoy it. I haven't listened to it because I'm not a huge Devin Townsend fan. Does it qualify for metal, in your opinions? Go ahead, John. I'll let you, George, because I think you first said to me it qualified for you before I did, I think. I said, I'm allowing it because, first of all, 00:42:20.840 --> 00:42:50.360 the music does not come off to you as metal. That does not mean, you know, metal is more than just a genre. It's a feeling. It's an aura. It's something you exude. And you cannot tell me that Devin Townsend is not one metal motherfucker because he is, he is very metal. But then again, like I said, there's a lot of heaviness in this album. You just have to look for it. Yeah. You know what, Marcus, if you were going to listen to it, and I know you, 00:42:50.420 --> 00:43:20.320 like some stuff and some stuff you're not as big on. I would give it a headphones listen. I think you might enjoy it more that way because like George said on the surface you might not get some of that underlying because there's some heavy riffs but they're layered. It's weird. All his albums are layered like Motorhead but on the industrial side. So you listen it's like a wall of sound and you have to navigate through kind of like you do with Motorhead when you listen to them. It's a wall of sound. But this one's a little cleaner and you can pick all the sounds out. George is right. There's some 00:43:20.400 --> 00:43:48.060 heavy fucking guitars, but you don't get them as much because it's got all the kind of floral arrangements. It's subtle. The vocals. The Bukkake of vocals. Yeah. But, you know, you might find something on there. I mean, there's some stuff that are, there's some quirky stuff on the second disc, which is kind of funny, but that's him. You know, so. I think his next album is going to be called Joy Bukkake. Yeah. I'm just waiting for him to just unload. 00:43:50.420 --> 00:44:19.640 I'm waiting for his next album just to beat balls out. He's working his way around again. So who knows? I think he's earned the right to do whatever he wants. Exactly. Exactly. So yeah, I love it. I think it's great. Matt, you listened to it at all? I did. I liked it. You know, I know. I mean, I really appreciate Devin Townsend. I think he's a crazy dude. And I think, you know, I love someone that's that prolific and that into music. I mean, even if you don't love his sound, you have to appreciate what he does. 00:44:19.840 --> 00:44:48.740 And I really dug the album. And he's fucking crazy. I would say metal is what you define metal as. And so it's definitely a state of mind. And so if you feel like it's metal, it's metal. And again, I'm not disputing that. I totally would agree with you. There's a lot of stuff on there that is metal, unquestionably. So definitely worth a spin. Yeah. You know, I mean, you can say, oh, well, this band isn't metal. And it's something that's like stupid, like poison. 00:44:50.320 --> 00:45:18.680 And you know, people are like, yeah, okay, I get why you're saying that. But the key word you just said there is something that's stupid. Stupid is the key word. Right. And so, but if it's something that is respectable and has a catalog that is beloved by many, then people tend to be a little more accepting of, I mean, there's always going to be somebody that hates it, but you know. Yeah, I mean, it's just where we are now. 00:45:18.780 --> 00:45:47.800 It's like, okay, I get where this is going. I understand why this is what it is, and I dig it. Will just got up and left the room as soon as we started talking about it, so we're not getting an opinion from him. So let's speed demon through the rest of these and trick him. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. James Hetfield, welcome to the Metallica Hens podcast. Today we're talking about the Black Album. 00:45:49.380 --> 00:46:17.960 We do a couple years and Will shows up. Yeah. Yeah. Did somebody say, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. All right. Will, did you listen to the Devon Townsend at all? No. What? No, I did not. Yeah. Okay. That's cool. Do I need to? No. No, you probably won't like it. You won't like it. No. Yeah. That's fine. It's cool. So the next album. 00:46:18.760 --> 00:46:20.860 is the band Disillusion. 00:46:21.620 --> 00:46:24.440 And their fourth album, which I'm calling I Am. 00:46:25.220 --> 00:46:26.240 Yeah, I am. 00:46:26.400 --> 00:46:27.040 I am. 00:46:27.900 --> 00:46:28.680 A-Y-A-M. 00:46:28.700 --> 00:46:29.660 I'm like a ruse. 00:46:30.400 --> 00:46:30.800 Yeah. 00:46:32.060 --> 00:46:34.240 They're a German prog death band. 00:46:35.200 --> 00:46:36.000 And damn. 00:46:36.720 --> 00:46:37.000 You know. 00:46:37.240 --> 00:46:37.400 Yeah. 00:46:37.700 --> 00:46:41.480 I loved these guys back in, I don't know, the fucking early days. 00:46:41.760 --> 00:46:43.160 What was it, like 2003? 00:46:43.840 --> 00:46:44.040 2004. 00:46:44.120 --> 00:46:44.420 2004. 00:46:44.420 --> 00:46:45.260 2004, I think, yeah. 00:46:45.580 --> 00:46:47.900 When Back to Times of Splendor came out. 00:46:47.980 --> 00:47:17.940 And I was like, these guys are amazing. And then I like, they disappeared forever. And then they came back and I didn't like them as much. Well, actually, no, they did a second album that I didn't like so much. Then they came back. Then they came back. And that was cool. And I really liked this album a lot. Yeah, I'm digging it too. I mean, it's got a pretty unique sound to me. Like it's got death and heavy and kind of prog too, but it has a very distinct sound that I 00:47:17.980 --> 00:47:22.100 I'm like I could identify this you know like you know a year from now you play this 00:47:22.180 --> 00:47:27.300 oh yeah it's disillusioned whereas so much stuff like this it just kind of all blends together 00:47:29.160 --> 00:47:34.160 yeah they I think they definitely have their own unique sound that um you don't hear too many bands 00:47:35.020 --> 00:47:40.680 they they meld the metal the prong and the melodic death pretty well together I think 00:47:41.560 --> 00:47:47.940 so I like it too I'm enjoying it he's got a unique voice what did you say he 00:47:47.960 --> 00:48:16.740 I like to you that you had forgotten it was. Oh, it was a, what's a V pray thing. Yes. Yeah. He had this like David gold. Like when he, he was doing these like deep cleans. Yeah. And I was like, Oh my gosh, it's like David gold. I mean, it was only like maybe part of one song, but I was just like, Oh, and, uh, I feel like his harsh vocals are more on this album than the last one. I think so too. There's a little bit more, I think so. Yeah. Yeah. I'm digging it. Anyone else? 00:48:17.940 --> 00:48:47.780 Yeah, I thought it was pretty good. Yeah. Some of the, um, they have like those epic choruses on it. I don't know if I like that part as much, but I like the atmosphere of the album a lot. Yeah. I think you hit on some, Marcus. This one feels more epic in some parts more than the previous album. Especially with the choruses. Yeah. It's a little symphonic in some spots, but not overly. It's not that cheesy shit. It's just, it's added flavor. Right. It's just, 00:48:47.960 --> 00:49:17.860 A lot. It's a, I guess I didn't expect it to be like that, that, that epic. So sometimes that takes a little time for me to digest. Um, but I really liked the music in it. And like I said, the atmosphere of it. So many sound bites there. I didn't expect it to be so epic. It took me a while to swallow it all. It's a lot to digest. Swallow. I don't know. I'm just, but yeah, we're definitely making some clips out of that. If all, if all. It's cool though. 00:49:17.960 --> 00:49:47.600 If only we had the rights to all of Mike Judge's soundbites, this could be out of control right now. But that disillusionment, nothing sounds like that this year. Yeah, nothing. Nobody sounds like that at all. Yeah, I like that. Cool. All right. Matt, do you like it? You know, I spun it once, and I should probably do it again. Nothing really kind of stuck with me, but, you know. It's definitely not immediate. You got to put a little time in with it, so. 00:49:47.960 --> 00:49:48.320 Yeah. 00:49:50.520 --> 00:49:51.540 So next up. 00:49:51.820 --> 00:49:53.460 It's just the way the albums fell. 00:49:53.780 --> 00:49:53.860 Yeah. 00:49:55.720 --> 00:50:01.380 So next up we have Dream Unending and their second album, Song of Salvation, Death Doom. 00:50:01.550 --> 00:50:01.960 Hello, Will. 00:50:03.180 --> 00:50:04.120 Did you listen to this one? 00:50:05.500 --> 00:50:07.100 I'm going back to sleep. 00:50:08.200 --> 00:50:08.340 Okay. 00:50:08.660 --> 00:50:10.480 Will, you might actually like this, Will. 00:50:13.240 --> 00:50:14.940 I just didn't have time. 00:50:15.350 --> 00:50:17.380 Sleep well in Dream of French Fried Taters. 00:50:17.820 --> 00:50:47.440 Yeah, I'm going to list this. Atmospheric Doom and Taters. I'm going to get some Doom Taters. These Taters are so good, they make me cry. It's sad and doom. Has anyone listened to this? I love this album. I listened to some of it once. I really dug the last one, so I know I will like this one. I just have not had the time to listen and focus. Yeah, it did sound kind of cool, but I just didn't have time to give it a 00:50:48.920 --> 00:51:17.180 I loved it. Yeah. So I think Markisan you and I were kind of enjoying it when it came out. It's not immediate. You need to, you need to put the headphones on for this one. Cause it's atmospheric as hell. Oh, atmospheric. Yeah. A lot of psychedelic reverb in there. You know, I like the first album a lot. It didn't quite, it didn't make my list. It was on the cusp. It was on mine. Yeah. Because I just felt like that first album, 00:51:17.500 --> 00:51:46.820 a bit too much for my taste. This one still has those long introspective songs, but for some reason it hooked me. There's something about the textures on this album that I really like. And the guitar soloing is just gorgeous on it. Yeah. It's really good. Yeah. If you're not familiar and it's, I wouldn't say they, they kind of, they're one of the few bands that are venturing into the Peaceful Three type early nineties doom. 00:51:47.460 --> 00:52:16.440 The Paradise Lost, Anathema, My Dying Bride. They don't have any of the early Catatonia in them. So they're more the other three. But they're way more atmospheric. They kind of fall more on the Anathema side. But then they get very Death Doomy, like My Dying Bride at some point, and parts too. But they still sound like their own band. If you're not familiar, it's one guy from Tumult, and then another guy from, is it Immutable Forms? Innumerable. 00:52:16.680 --> 00:52:46.340 Enumerable, thank you. And he's also the drummer from Summerlands. Oh, shit, that's right. Yeah. So it's pedigree. It's cool. I mean, two albums in two years, but it's only what? Yeah. Twelve songs, I think, total. So, but just cool. It's really good. I love the atmosphere on this one. There's just something about it. It definitely transports you to another place. Yeah. The first album had that, but not like this one. This one's like another level. I feel like they've definitely. A new level. 00:52:48.000 --> 00:52:48.480 Yeah. 00:52:48.920 --> 00:52:49.800 Of Death Doom. 00:52:53.820 --> 00:52:54.140 All right. 00:52:54.240 --> 00:52:56.360 You've been listening to the James Hetfield podcast. 00:52:56.700 --> 00:52:57.900 That was supposed to be Pantera. 00:52:57.900 --> 00:52:58.480 Welcome to Pantera. 00:53:00.020 --> 00:53:02.320 James Hetfield doing Pantera with Billy Bob Thornton. 00:53:02.640 --> 00:53:04.160 It's a celebration of Pantera. 00:53:04.240 --> 00:53:05.440 I don't like Pantera, so. 00:53:05.560 --> 00:53:06.080 I don't need it. 00:53:06.560 --> 00:53:07.040 Anyway. 00:53:08.940 --> 00:53:09.200 All right. 00:53:09.340 --> 00:53:09.820 Last one. 00:53:10.340 --> 00:53:15.560 Threshold and Dividing Lines, their 12th album, UK prog metal band. 00:53:18.860 --> 00:53:45.040 Will's favorite. I put this one on here because I know John likes them and I kind of like them too. I was telling John I was listening to this earlier today and I was like, I'm really digging this. Wow, I was happy to hear that. I didn't think anyone else would like them. I bet a big fan back to the 90s. It's prog metal. It's not wankery prog metal at all though. They solo and stuff, but it's they're classy progs. I know Jay would get this comment. 00:53:45.100 --> 00:54:13.460 I liken them a little bit to Vandamplass. He's a big Vandamplass fan like I am, which is they focus more on songwriting and everyone signs on the album. It's not just a bunch of soloing and wankery. So I like it. They're one of the more consistent bands for the bands I listen to on my side of the spectrum. I don't think I have an album by them, 12 albums that I dislike by them at all. Awesome. Yeah, I thought it was all right. 00:54:15.100 --> 00:54:44.840 for me. And it's so, it sounds very produced to me. So I think it's good for that sound, but it's just not like my style. You're literally the only person I've heard, and I'm like, no critique. I've just, I thought it was interesting that you said it's happy. Literally everyone is deemed it as one of their darker albums, which is kind of funny. Yeah. But I get that. I mean, you know, as not a deep fan, but someone that has appreciated them over the years, yeah, I'd say it's kind of happy. I mean, compared to what I usually listen to. 00:54:45.100 --> 00:54:46.660 It's very upbeat. I don't know. 00:54:47.040 --> 00:54:47.160 Yeah. 00:54:47.780 --> 00:54:52.880 I haven't looked at the lyrics, but the music itself feels very upbeat and happy. 00:54:52.880 --> 00:54:53.640 Oh, it's no Devin. 00:54:54.240 --> 00:54:55.000 That's I'm happy. 00:54:55.580 --> 00:54:55.900 Oh, boy. 00:54:56.000 --> 00:54:56.120 Yeah. 00:54:56.580 --> 00:54:56.720 Yeah. 00:54:56.980 --> 00:55:03.560 But, you know, if for my friends, Julian Lance that love Prague, they probably will like this. 00:55:03.920 --> 00:55:06.140 So two people outside of the podcast. 00:55:06.580 --> 00:55:06.980 Two, two. 00:55:07.880 --> 00:55:08.320 Maybe TR. 00:55:09.600 --> 00:55:13.360 Yeah, but I don't know the last time he's listening, you know, so shame him when you see him. 00:55:13.740 --> 00:55:14.060 I will. 00:55:14.280 --> 00:55:14.580 Shame. 00:55:37.880 --> 00:55:37.900 Sabe, mas o mesmo, mas o mesmo, mas o mesmo. 00:55:46.200 --> 00:56:14.700 Black Sabbath, Born Again, or Motorheads, Another Perfect Day? Who picked this garbage? John. Jay. Jay. Sorry. Yeah, Jay. It was somebody with a J letter. Yeah, that's all I gotta say. Have you listened to both albums? No, but I do know that anything Black Sabbath without either Ozzy or... 00:56:14.720 --> 00:56:43.940 GDO is going to suck big floppy donkey dick. I'm not sure why everyone hates this particular. Actually, I thought boarding is actually pretty good. Believe it or not, it is. It's just the production sucks a bag of dirt. That's included. So I'm going to have to go with Motorhead just because everybody else did get on. And I have no idea why did the motorhead. I mean, was this a bad album? 00:56:44.080 --> 00:56:45.620 It's one that's considered 00:56:47.300 --> 00:56:49.020 different from the rest of the catalog. 00:56:49.320 --> 00:56:50.540 That was the point of his thing. 00:56:51.180 --> 00:56:52.220 There were solos on it. 00:56:52.560 --> 00:56:52.960 Yeah. 00:56:54.560 --> 00:56:56.080 Classy, tasteful solos. 00:56:56.360 --> 00:56:56.480 Yep. 00:56:57.000 --> 00:56:58.400 He sounds awesome on the album. 00:56:58.420 --> 00:56:59.820 I love the record, to be honest. 00:57:00.260 --> 00:57:00.960 I love it. 00:57:01.260 --> 00:57:04.640 Well, the final tally, minus Will's vote, was... 00:57:05.960 --> 00:57:06.580 No, no, no. 00:57:06.700 --> 00:57:07.980 I vote for Motorhead. 00:57:08.100 --> 00:57:08.280 Okay. 00:57:08.360 --> 00:57:12.640 Well, for the podcast, the final vote is... 00:57:12.920 --> 00:57:13.040 Yeah. 00:57:13.900 --> 00:57:14.040 Oops. 00:57:15.359 --> 00:57:20.940 For five to two for Motorhead. Jay and I were the only ones that went with Black Sabbath. 00:57:22.240 --> 00:57:24.720 And we only have six people on the cast. 00:57:25.740 --> 00:57:26.460 What did I say? 00:57:26.860 --> 00:57:27.560 Five to two. 00:57:30.060 --> 00:57:31.880 Math is really strong this episode. 00:57:32.220 --> 00:57:32.360 Yeah. 00:57:33.010 --> 00:57:33.960 I like math. 00:57:37.000 --> 00:57:37.160 Okay. 00:57:37.800 --> 00:57:38.500 Four to two then. 00:57:40.160 --> 00:57:41.740 And so goes the podcast. 00:57:42.100 --> 00:57:43.020 So goes the listeners. 00:57:43.740 --> 00:58:13.160 On the website, it was 61% Motorhead, 39% Black Sabbath. So Motorhead carries the day. That actually, six to four is pretty what I would think it would be. And if we get a new version of the Black Sabbath album. I agree, 100%. It could be different. I would actually consider redoing it just to see what we would pick. Me too. All right. Well, you know, it's funny because 00:58:13.200 --> 00:58:30.460 Jay's probably thinking, oh, I'll show up, then they'll be doing t-shirt and beer check, and we're going to be like, and the album of the episode is. That guy takes a long time to eat pizza. I know. Drink his coffee. All right, well, we're moving on to what we're listening to. 00:58:43.200 --> 00:58:46.860 What a real estate show 00:58:49.160 --> 00:58:51.760 What a real estate show 00:58:54.120 --> 00:58:55.580 And let's start with Markisan 00:58:56.620 --> 00:58:58.700 Alright, wow, this is so fast 00:58:59.060 --> 00:59:00.900 It's gonna be record time 00:59:01.400 --> 00:59:04.260 We got a lot of complaints coming up, Markisan, so let's just roll 00:59:04.320 --> 00:59:04.880 Oh, that's true 00:59:06.060 --> 00:59:10.740 Alright, so the first one on my list is Chrome Ghost, House of Falling Ash 00:59:11.120 --> 00:59:12.459 Seeing Red Records 00:59:12.480 --> 00:59:42.060 This is my album of the month for October. And it just, it immediately grabbed me the first time I heard it and would not let go. It's heavy, sad, doom metal with these really gorgeous, forlorn sung vocals. And then they also do these stunning vocal harmonies that sometimes remind me of Alice in Chains a little bit. There's progressiveness in it, noise rock, post-metal. I just, I love this record so much. I feel like it's one that'll probably, 00:59:42.460 --> 01:00:12.440 I'm under the radar. I love their last record too. Uh, the diving ball, but that one actually fell under my radar as well. Cause I didn't really listen to it until after the year concluded or else it probably would have been on my list. So this time around, I'm in on it. Um, Lamentations, passion of depression. Um, Willowtip records. This is a colorful cinematic progressive death metal album. A lot of progressive metal on this cast. It's pretty great. Uh, intricate shifting 01:00:13.100 --> 01:00:42.440 It's also full of really groovy passages and ripping guitars. And it has a bunch of guest musicians on here. There's some ex-members of Cynic, I think, and X-Toll. So I'm really digging this album. It just came out maybe last week, so it's pretty new. Devenial Verdict, Ash Blind on Transcending Obscurity. I think this is one of the best death metal records this year. It's like Ulcerate and Morbid Angel tossed in a 01:00:42.460 --> 01:01:12.120 Metal Meat Grinder. It's crushing, it's haunting, and it's just full of this really great sense of space that lures you in and then just fucking punishes you. I need to listen to that. I got the free download from, what was it, Transcending Obscurity? And I haven't listened to it yet. Listen to it, because it's going to be, it's a sleeper. Like, you know, there's a lot of death metal, and I don't think this one's getting as much recognition, and it should, because it's one of the best ones. Worm, Blue Nothing. 01:01:12.520 --> 01:01:42.440 is an EP from 20 Buck Spin. I didn't really spin this one that much until very recently because I got the vinyl in the mail. And when I put it on, I was blown away by this record. The vibe on this mini album is perfect. It's black and death doom, but with like sludgy synth. There's symphonic elements mixed into it. They're like really hard to categorize at this point, but I feel like they get better with every single release. And I only wish this EP was like maybe 01:01:42.480 --> 01:02:12.440 be a couple minutes longer because if it was it would be it would be my top 10 no doubt i love this ep it's like at 26 minutes we're talking it's right there i was so sad when i saw it was an ep yeah i almost mini lp which is just an ep yeah exactly yeah i i would consider it's like maybe i should just break my rule for this because it's only like two minutes but i'm not gonna do it it's Markisan it's outside i absolutely 01:02:12.460 --> 01:02:42.400 I know, right? Not only that, the cover art could be the best cover art this year, too. I actually thought Decimal might put it on their list because it was so close, but they didn't, and I know how much they love that record. It's good stuff. More prog. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Psychonaut, Violate Consensus Reality. Nice. Nice. Just an intense mix of progressive and technical post-metal. Yeah. Really gorgeous. 01:02:42.480 --> 01:03:08.140 Just melodies, epic, heavy guitar work. I don't even know how to describe how good this record is, but I have to tell you guys, I think this might be my top progressive metal album of the year. I love this record so much. And then the last thing on my list, this is going to make George really happy. I have been doing a deep dive on the woods of E-Price. 01:03:12.480 --> 01:03:42.340 It's a fantastic start to finish change. Yes, it is. Yes. I haven't spent much time with this band. I think it's mostly because you just like jizz all over them. It's just too gooey to listen to. Right. I don't know what I think. So they put out. They're putting out vinyl of the fourth record. They're re-putting out vinyl. I have the original vinyl. And I was like, oh, yeah, it's not cheap. I forgot about that band. I was like, let me. I want to listen. 01:03:42.480 --> 01:04:12.160 that. So I listened to it and it's just, you know, they do change a lot, but the core is really beautiful, black and doom majesty, really. Yeah. That was the one, that was the album that got me into the band. Cause when that came out, the, the, uh, uh, what do you call it? Uh, the publicist was like, you got to check this out. And I was like, Oh, and then I, I, I did a, an email interview with David because, 01:04:12.960 --> 01:04:42.400 I don't think there was a podcast yet. No, there couldn't have been because he died in 2012. But I was still like doing like written, you know, reviews and stuff like that. And I sent questions for a interview to David through the publicist that turned me on to him. And I did. Actually, I did a review and he liked it and thanked me. He wrote me, emailed me and thanked me. And so then she was like, you do want to do an interview. So I sent questions and then I never got them back. 01:04:42.480 --> 01:05:10.760 and then he died. Oh, man. Wow. Yeah. That's pretty sad. Because it was a car accident, right? Yeah. The music's really good. So I'm glad I'm, I mean, I've listened to a little bit of it, but I didn't really go into it like this. Doesn't it feel good to venture into something you missed and go back to it? Yeah, it really does. Wow. Did you listen to four? I've listened to all of them. I mean, not four, five. Did you like five? 01:05:12.080 --> 01:05:39.960 That's probably my least favorite one. Interesting. Brouin' on the podcast. It's got a lot more going on in it. It does. It's a little poppier. I like the doomier aspect of it. Just listen to Modern Day Architecture. That is the most slow, glacier-grinding fucking song on that album. It's just crazy. 01:05:42.619 --> 01:05:49.100 It doesn't mean I don't like it. I love all the records. It's not the Black 01:05:49.270 --> 01:05:50.340 album. You know what I'm saying? Right. 01:05:53.160 --> 01:05:57.360 Okay. Well, since we're on the subject, then what did you think of three? What did you think of two? What did you think of one? 01:06:01.180 --> 01:06:03.760 Are you serious? If you want to say it, I'm listening. 01:06:05.350 --> 01:06:07.340 I think I like four the best. 01:06:07.590 --> 01:06:07.840 Uh-huh. 01:06:10.380 --> 01:06:39.779 I don't know I like all of them George it's hard to tell I still you know I've only spun them a couple times each so I still have to process if I was going to do like a ranking or how I feel about them but I like all of those those albums quite a bit but I think four is probably my favorite one I don't know what it is I think it's the the vocals on the songs in the very beginning yeah like kind of like deep yeah I really like that because I think sometimes they can come across as cheesy you know if people can't do it well but he does it really well 01:06:39.780 --> 01:07:07.740 Yeah. First time I heard it. I think that really drew me in. I was like, wow, this is so like Peter Steele deep. You know? Exactly. That's a good, yeah, exactly a good way to describe it. Yeah. So. But, but yeah, but I'm going to, I got all the albums I've spun a couple times and I'm going to keep spinning. I'm probably through the weekend. Sweet. So I'll give you a ranking if you want when I'm done. I think, yeah, that'd be great. I think I'm pretty much like five, four, three, two, one. Are you serious? Yeah. 01:07:09.800 --> 01:07:39.640 You thought they got better every single record. Interesting. Yeah. Yeah. And the fifth one is quite a departure. It's just so much. Well, Joel was Joel was on that. Right. He's that's the only one he was on. Right. Yeah. He he was in the video for I was at Mount Pleasant Cemetery, whatever. But I don't think he was actually on the album. He joined after it was recorded. But he did a lot of the music on five. Okay. So. Yeah. No, it's a shame. I mean, 01:07:39.800 --> 01:08:07.840 At least they have the five records plus the, you know, EPs and stuff. I mean, you would not believe the amount of money I had to spend to get the home seven inch. Oh, really? How much, George? I don't, I don't even know. Home or the whole? Home. It was a, it was a, it was, I believe a two song seven inch vinyl that came out between four and five. And I mean, just go on Discogs and try to find one. Go on, try. 01:08:09.780 --> 01:08:39.759 You know, it took me a while and it was not cheap. I don't remember what it was, but it was not cheap. I did look because, you know, obviously before they've re-released it and you can get five, no problem too. But the other ones, you know, they go for a pretty penny even on Discogs. I think I have them all. Oh, I wouldn't doubt that. I mean, I know I have them on CD even, but I think they did. I think Eric did 01:08:39.799 --> 01:08:40.960 issues for the first couple. 01:08:41.720 --> 01:08:42.520 I don't have to look. 01:08:44.480 --> 01:08:44.620 Yeah. 01:08:45.040 --> 01:08:45.640 But yeah, it's great. 01:08:45.880 --> 01:08:49.279 It's like, it's funny too, because obviously you've talked about them so much 01:08:49.310 --> 01:08:52.339 on the podcast and I've been on the podcast for a while, but it's taken me this 01:08:52.480 --> 01:08:53.980 long to get back. 01:08:54.839 --> 01:08:55.480 Well, I'm glad you did. 01:08:55.609 --> 01:08:56.700 Again and really getting into it. 01:08:58.120 --> 01:08:58.480 Excellent. 01:08:58.640 --> 01:09:00.460 Let me tell you about this little band called Thrasenblad. 01:09:02.020 --> 01:09:05.100 Well, I just listened to that new EP coming out and they have a song. 01:09:05.600 --> 01:09:05.700 Yeah. 01:09:05.920 --> 01:09:06.740 A track that's up. 01:09:06.779 --> 01:09:36.740 I just listened to that it's really good yeah all right anyways Matt most excellent most excellent um my deep dive has been on my year-end list which I will not say anything about uh we'll keep that secret for another couple of weeks couple weeks uh strangely enough I have listened to gate creepers and unexpected reality a shit ton um this last month I love that album her are uh 01:09:38.240 --> 01:10:06.740 I've listened to a ton of Motorhead, starting with... What is the album that was on? Perfect Day? Another Perfect Day. Another Perfect Day. Good stuff. A band called Disagnostic. The album is called Scar Echoes. Really good death metal on the brutal side. A band called 16, their album Into Dust. I believe there was a write-up in Decibel on the last issue. And honestly, I did not realize that 16 was... 01:10:06.780 --> 01:10:36.680 It's a band that had this career that has lasted for years. And I'm literally just getting into them. And this album is the first I've heard. Really dig it. Really like the new obituary single. Jamming that a lot this week. And then we got three songs, I believe, from Ashton Horde with an album called Antimony coming out. And that's it for me. John. All right. So it's weird. I really don't have much to say. 01:10:36.760 --> 01:10:39.020 because surprisingly, 01:10:39.620 --> 01:10:41.460 so many of my albums were in the new releases. 01:10:42.980 --> 01:10:45.040 I get one a year and this is my one. 01:10:45.840 --> 01:10:46.480 So yes, 01:10:46.540 --> 01:10:47.800 we mentioned Devin Townsend, 01:10:48.740 --> 01:10:51.020 Lightwork Nightwork or Lightwork Deluxe, 01:10:51.200 --> 01:10:52.080 whatever you want to call it. 01:10:52.740 --> 01:10:53.960 We mentioned Disillusion. 01:10:54.780 --> 01:10:55.180 I am. 01:10:55.400 --> 01:10:55.580 Yeah. 01:10:56.040 --> 01:10:56.240 Yeah. 01:10:57.720 --> 01:10:58.680 Dream Unending, 01:10:59.260 --> 01:11:00.300 Song of Salvation we've mentioned. 01:11:00.560 --> 01:11:01.160 So listen to that. 01:11:01.440 --> 01:11:02.960 Markisan mentioned Limitations, 01:11:04.040 --> 01:11:05.400 Passion of Depression. 01:11:05.720 --> 01:11:35.240 It's a cool album and I agree with them. It's got some interesting proggy death stuff. Proggy death in the vein of Cynic and Death. But they don't sound like those bands, but it's that type of prog metal, prog death metal. And it does have members, either current or former of Cynic Black Crown Initiative, exist and extol. So that's interesting. We already talked about Threshold, Dividing Lines. I've been spinning that a lot. Marc Hassan mentioned Worm, Blue Nothing. Love that. Mini E. 01:11:35.720 --> 01:12:05.540 P, mini LP. No, a mini EP is a single. A mini LP is an EP. Yeah, that's true. Yeah. Whatever it's called. A mini single doesn't exist. That's just like Napalm Death. That's just like... No, I love that song. Something that hasn't been mentioned yet, and it was just like boner alert city this morning for me. Oh, yeah. Fuck yeah. New Enslaved dropped today. Oh, yeah. That was me doing the Kool-Aid guy. Yeah. 01:12:05.720 --> 01:12:35.420 Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. But Frosty. They should bring the Kool-Aid guy back, but James Headfield should be the face in the Kool-Aid guy. Give him a little mustache. I guess it's called Hemdale. Heimdall. Heimdall, yep. Two of the songs have already been released. They released two of them previously last year. But fuck, yeah, let's bring it. That's like not till March, though. Yeah. Oh, jeez. 01:12:35.740 --> 01:13:05.700 Surprisingly, that's only like four months away, three months away. I won't mention this EP. I'm going to save it for somebody else to talk about. And then I found, and I only found this out because there was a cat on the album cover. And I was like, well, if there's a cat, I got to check this shit out. Meow. And Guapa, Myrid. This is a stoner rock band from Sweden, which I'm really 01:13:05.740 --> 01:13:35.540 not big on stone or rock or metal anymore. I mean, I like spiritual beggars, but I like the early stuff better than the more recent stuff. I hate how they venture into the bluesy, and I like blues, but I hate when stone or rock ventures bluesy. It just sounds stale to me. This was a kick-ass fucking album. The vocalist, she's amazing. Everyone's comparing her to Bjork, but I was surprised at how non-fuzzy it sounded, which is why I really liked it, I think. The guitar tones, I actually thought were, 01:13:35.720 --> 01:14:05.480 were much better than usual on the stone and rock stuff, but never heard of them. I'm going to be spinning this a lot more. I only got one spin in today because work sucks a bag of dirt right now. So I'm really busy, but killer, killer out. So it was good, you know, and it's not a metal album, but it's, it's heavy though. But without the fuzz kind of, there's none of that stuff on it, which is good at doom in it, but yeah, a little bit, but no, it's a stone and rock, but yeah, a little bit of tune, but it's just, there's, there's grooves. 01:14:05.740 --> 01:14:35.700 which are really cool um and again she's a fabulous singer and she's not that kind of high pitch whiny thing either she's got her own kind of nice mid-range vocals so right and their name is like it means lynx which is the cat yes they got cats and album covers that that that hooked me it's like hey it's all john needs well hey there little feline how you doing yeah exactly i marcus i actually for my birthday got a book is it's called metal heads and they're 01:14:36.160 --> 01:15:05.680 And it's just all these musicians with their cats. Oh, man. Well, I was just out there. So I wanted to get a beer. But my cat, he's on his tower and he saw me and he jumped on and ran over to me and I had to hold him. And so Tracy's laying on the couch watching television and he loves laying on her because she has this really soft blanket. So I was like, all right, Kitty, I had to put you down. I tried to put him down on her and he wouldn't stay. He just kept coming running back to me. Wasn't having any of it. Yeah. And he was sitting right outside the door. 01:15:05.720 --> 01:15:12.780 He's just so needy. 01:15:15.680 --> 01:15:16.440 Anyway. 01:15:17.250 --> 01:15:19.340 So what am I listening to? I don't have a very long list. 01:15:20.730 --> 01:15:21.260 Neither do I. 01:15:23.620 --> 01:15:29.100 First up, the new stuff from Ashen Horde and Timony, as mentioned. 01:15:30.520 --> 01:15:34.920 I pre-ordered the vinyl on Indiegogo today. 01:15:35.360 --> 01:16:04.960 And you should too. So go find Ash and Horde on Indiegogo and pre-order the vinyl so that we can get this shit made. Yeah. And they even have an option where you can get the vinyl and you can get a seven inch with extra tracks on it, which is pretty cool. Who doesn't love an extra seven inches? Seven inches. So go out there, pre-order that shit on Indiegogo and get yourself some good metal, some French fried metal. 01:16:05.160 --> 01:16:05.780 Yeah. 01:16:06.280 --> 01:16:06.560 Yeah. 01:16:07.330 --> 01:16:07.680 All right. 01:16:08.400 --> 01:16:16.240 Next up, this is an album that I did not know about until the Decibel Year Endless came out. 01:16:17.220 --> 01:16:17.360 What? 01:16:18.080 --> 01:16:19.480 Yeah, I actually learned something. 01:16:21.860 --> 01:16:25.720 And there's actually a couple more on there that I haven't heard and I haven't listened to yet either. 01:16:25.810 --> 01:16:32.140 But this is a band called Chat Pile and their first album called God's Country. 01:16:32.580 --> 01:17:02.140 They're an Oklahoma band that I'm just scared to try and put into a category. I was talking to Stacy about them. And actually, no, I was talking to James about them, too. Actually, it was probably James that I said this to, but from Decibel. To me, it sounds like cake meets corn meets napalm death. Okay. I could see that from the little bit I listened to. Yeah, I could see it. Yeah. Well, there's definitely the noise rock. 01:17:02.520 --> 01:17:32.500 element to it. I still don't know what the fuck noise rock is. I don't know. It's like noisy rock. And I don't generally like that. But there's just something about this combination of it's like it's got the corn thing. It's just like a heavy bass and like a bit of a groove to it. And the way he screams like a heavier corn. Okay. And cake because of the way he kind of, you know, talks some of the time over the lyrics, you know, I feel your arms are 01:17:32.540 --> 01:18:00.580 You know, kind of cake-ish. And then... The drums like Korn, too, on the album? I didn't listen enough to... I'd have to listen to it again. They do have a unique drum sound. Yeah, it's very interesting sounding album. And then, you know, they get really heavy and screamy, so that's where the grind sound would come in, or noise, if you want. So, I'm really digging that. Cool. That was the surprise of the week. 01:18:01.560 --> 01:18:02.560 Only two other things. 01:18:03.340 --> 01:18:03.740 Hmm. 01:18:04.900 --> 01:18:05.280 Hmm. 01:18:05.940 --> 01:18:06.600 Two there are. 01:18:06.900 --> 01:18:07.300 Yeah. 01:18:07.920 --> 01:18:12.620 One is the, it's not brand new or anything, but the Sabaton, the War to End All Wars. 01:18:13.300 --> 01:18:13.540 Really? 01:18:13.780 --> 01:18:14.460 The 10th album. 01:18:14.760 --> 01:18:18.660 I, you know, I was just like, hey, I haven't listened to this. 01:18:18.680 --> 01:18:19.620 I haven't listened to them in a while. 01:18:19.700 --> 01:18:20.260 Let me listen to this. 01:18:20.300 --> 01:18:24.660 And I really like this album enough that I'm actually going to talk about it on here. 01:18:25.780 --> 01:18:26.100 Wow. 01:18:26.280 --> 01:18:26.960 I like it. 01:18:27.200 --> 01:18:56.760 I have to say, I'm not, I don't listen to power metal, but they seem to be a band that puts out quality every time because they have so many devoted fans. But maybe I'm wrong about that. I don't know. Well, now I want to know what John was going to ask me. Oh, I was just going to say, Marcus, about the Lamentations album that you mentioned to the bands that the guests are on. It was also, 01:18:57.220 --> 01:19:27.180 The Bandit Exist. Where's my list? I can't remember. I was going to say that. Yeah, I like that you brought that up. Oh, Black Crown Initiate. They have an unbelievable amount of guests on the album, which is kind of cool. That's all I was going to say. Such a good record. I mean, that's the kind of prog I like where it's guitar forward. It's always my favorite. So we've got a lot of that this year. I'll meet you. Go ahead, George. What's that last one? That last one is 01:19:27.220 --> 01:19:57.180 John alluded to earlier is the new Thross and Blot EP, which Markson did mention, uh, Excelsior. It's their sixth EP. The pre-orders were up today. It releases next Friday. I, uh, I've had the ultimate honor and, and, and, uh, privilege of listening to these songs come together from the beginning. Uh, Joel's been sending me like, you know, Hey, here's this guitar and drum 01:19:57.700 --> 01:20:27.180 Hey, I added bass. Hey, I added guitar solos. Hey, I added vocals. Here's a totally done pre-mastered mixed version. And, you know, through the whole thing, I've been hearing it as it grows. And that is just about the coolest fucking thing for a music fan to be able to do. That's awesome. I truly appreciate that. And, you know, this is heavy thrust and blot. This is not folky thrust and blot. Not that there's anything wrong with folky thrust and blot. But people sometimes ask, well, which version 01:20:29.560 --> 01:20:57.140 So, um, go on to band camp and pre-order that shit now. So I would have got it today, but was today not band camp Friday? Cause I got every indication that it wasn't. And at the next one's next month. Well, yeah. Cause it's like the third Friday or whatever. I'm sorry. Yeah. That's how bad my fucking month has been for work. I apologize. I'm that late. Jesus. So George, is this the, 01:20:57.260 --> 01:21:27.180 the album you were talking about that you were listening to that you couldn't tell anyone about you mentioned that i think on the new music friday yeah nick was all like oh you're just trying to hold back and get another uh uh what the hell is that band i'm so old a something abigore abigore yeah um and i was like nah i just wasn't feeling that i was because i was hearing stuff that he hadn't announced yet i didn't want to talk about it and i think 01:21:27.220 --> 01:21:55.820 I figured that's what it was. But regarding Nick, to quote John McLaughlin, for those who remember the show, wrong. Yes, exactly. It was totally thralls and blot. It was not avatarium or whatever else there was. So if you want it, Bandcamp Friday is coming. Now that I know what part of the month we're in, Bandcamp Friday is coming up in a couple weeks. But get it now. Do it now. Do it. 01:21:57.200 --> 01:22:24.640 Yeah. Oh, Jay's here. Oh, my gosh. Finally. Just in time. Boy. Wow. How much pizza did this guy eat? Jesus. What are you, get a stuffed crust pizza or something? Jesus. I wanted to join like this. Yeah. Jay's been frozen for an hour. All right. So. Yeah. 01:22:27.180 --> 01:22:56.720 It's been delayed until the 29th. How is that possible? I ordered mine first and mine's delayed. So Jay... It actually writes it wrong for me too because I know it's well known that we like that record very much but it replaces what I tried to actually have in my collection which is a bootleg but it's from Manhattan on the Peace of Mind tour but I'm so happy to have that. Well Jay, what have you been listening to? Sure. Yeah. Let's see. 01:22:57.200 --> 01:23:26.120 The New Sog Record is great. It's different than... Every record they do is different from the last record they did. But this one's a little bit more traditional, and it's really good. I love how that guy sings, man. I think they're such good songwriters. So, the New Sog Record. I'm still listening to the new Behemoths, the new Goat Horror, and I always peruse the stuff you guys put in the new music thing and stuff. So, lots of different stuff, but those are probably the ones that we've been listening to a lot. 01:23:27.200 --> 01:23:56.860 That and everything else I listen to every day. You've got to be like, it's only now 40 minutes in. How are they possibly to what we're listening to already? I'm shocked. It's moved pretty fast. You know, life moves pretty fast. And if you don't. And actually, you know what? I'm going to say, and soon I will be listening to these stuff over Hammer's message is what I did not say out loud when I got on. So people didn't know what I was holding up, but so happy to have this man. Really nice. 01:23:58.560 --> 01:24:26.980 Yeah, it's really nice. You know, they got the, it is a triple album. And they did the proper cover on this. And oh, for those of you who don't know, they restored what was they had hoped would be the original soundtrack listing, which it has Total Eclipse on it instead of Gangland. Yep. Oh, fuck up, because Gangland only was on there because they sort of accidentally put Eclipse as the B side, which by the way, he covers. 01:24:27.200 --> 01:24:28.860 the liner notes, 01:24:29.040 --> 01:24:30.020 a message from Aerie. 01:24:30.540 --> 01:24:30.620 Right. 01:24:30.860 --> 01:24:33.260 And it's like an infinitely better song too. 01:24:33.900 --> 01:24:35.000 It's way better. 01:24:35.040 --> 01:24:35.360 I mean, 01:24:35.500 --> 01:24:38.840 a good proof of that, 01:24:38.900 --> 01:24:39.020 John, 01:24:39.200 --> 01:24:41.540 is that it's on the live album and gangland is not, 01:24:41.740 --> 01:24:41.980 you know? 01:24:42.540 --> 01:24:42.700 Well, 01:24:42.840 --> 01:24:43.000 I've, 01:24:43.100 --> 01:24:46.020 I've always said the two best songs on that album are that in the 01:24:46.280 --> 01:24:46.380 prisoner. 01:24:46.960 --> 01:24:51.020 They just sound so vicious and heavy and cool. 01:24:52.120 --> 01:24:52.960 I'm glad you guys got it. 01:24:53.020 --> 01:24:53.820 I'm still waiting for mine. 01:24:54.340 --> 01:24:54.440 Well, 01:24:54.600 --> 01:24:55.440 that stated though, 01:24:55.580 --> 01:24:55.880 by the way, 01:24:56.020 --> 01:24:56.740 the album itself, 01:24:56.940 --> 01:25:26.780 I don't imagine is any different. I'm suspecting this. Weren't those remasters that all came out a few years ago? They've remastered their stuff so many or it seems like they reissue so many remasters for so much. You just want that live album, which is Jay and I go on and on about how we think it's their best live album. It's really one of my holy grails though. Like I always thought I'll never have that album. Yeah, because it was in that box set. Yeah. So this is the day. You got it now. That's awesome. You guys got it. Very cool. Yeah. 01:25:26.840 --> 01:25:56.380 Yeah, it's got a rather extensive writing by Steve Harris and John, which I haven't read the whole of yet. I just opened the box. I include that now because this will most definitely be going on the record player this weekend. So Jay's number one and number two albums of the year, I'm going to predict right now, is going to be number one, Exit Stage Left, Rush Live, YYZ, and Be Silver Hammersmith, number two. Followed by the Holy Diver, 01:25:56.840 --> 01:26:20.020 Yeah, the holy diver, Parisi Mix. I'm fighting with myself over that one. Honestly, it's going to be hard to keep that off the list. But I swear to you, John, I just listened to YYZ again. Oh, it's so fucking good. I haven't listened to it in a little while. It's so good. All right, well, I think that covers me. All right. So, we're going to move on to our top five now. 01:26:43.000 --> 01:26:52.180 And I want to preface this. Okay, so the top five is top five complaints about decibels year and list. 01:26:52.300 --> 01:27:19.740 And I want to be absolutely clear here that we are not trying to insult Decibel. Decibel are our pals and we like them. The point of this is to sort of poke fun at the complainers that complain about things like this. In the social media world. In the social media world. So because Decibel is the first list of any consequence that comes out, 01:27:22.320 --> 01:27:52.000 the one that we chose for this. So, uh, and because we know them, uh, they know we're kidding. So that said, top five complaints about decibels year and list Markisan go. Yeah. So my number five is, or I only know like five of the albums on this list. So this one drives me nuts because whoever makes this comment and we get it a lot, or I see it a lot should be celebrating the fact that decibels top 25, 01:27:52.320 --> 01:28:22.280 gives them a shit ton of new albums to spin. You only know like five. You need to broaden your horizon. Here's some more stuff that maybe would make your list if you got to spin it. And if not, you can always go and read Revolver if that's more your speed. Yeah, exactly. Metal hammer. Yeah. Yeah. All right, Matt. So I literally pulled quotes off of Facebook. Okay. Enrage beyond recovery that Conan and artificial brain 01:28:22.320 --> 01:28:23.580 on here. Yep. 01:28:24.140 --> 01:28:25.620 Y'all owe me a new pair of pants. 01:28:25.900 --> 01:28:26.680 I saw that. 01:28:29.700 --> 01:28:29.920 Yep. 01:28:30.400 --> 01:28:30.540 Yep. 01:28:31.420 --> 01:28:31.780 Yeah. 01:28:32.640 --> 01:28:32.840 Yeah. 01:28:33.400 --> 01:28:33.500 John. 01:28:34.320 --> 01:28:34.540 All right. 01:28:34.700 --> 01:28:35.820 I have three lists actually, 01:28:36.040 --> 01:28:36.600 believe it or not. 01:28:36.860 --> 01:28:37.020 Yeah. 01:28:37.020 --> 01:28:37.480 Oh my gosh. 01:28:37.820 --> 01:28:38.340 I have, 01:28:38.940 --> 01:28:39.040 uh, 01:28:39.780 --> 01:28:44.140 my top five complaints in social media from readers or listeners, 01:28:44.220 --> 01:28:44.720 whatever you call it. 01:28:44.780 --> 01:28:48.180 I have my own personal top five complaints about their lists. 01:28:48.920 --> 01:29:16.320 And then I have my top five complaints about complaints from the readers. John with the deep dive. So I don't know how you want to do it. Do you want to just do these five and I'll just do the other ones as like honorable mention? Yeah, you should do the other ones countdown as a bonus afterwards. Or you could just do three of them right now and then three of them and then three of them. Okay, I'll do these real quick. So this is my top. This is my number five complaints from readers. Number 39? 01:29:18.900 --> 01:29:48.740 You always got to get a nine in there, George. Yeah. All right. So my my number five, my personal complaint. We're the prog bands. All right. Yep. And then here's my first complaint regarding the complainers. Did you even read the introduction before you looked at the list? Because that'll come up again later. All right. Stay with that one. Jay. All right. I don't necessarily hear all the complaints, but I know. 01:29:48.920 --> 01:29:50.100 What complaints people do 01:29:50.620 --> 01:29:52.700 And so my number five will be 01:29:52.880 --> 01:29:54.380 Just because a band has been around forever 01:29:54.740 --> 01:29:56.180 Doesn't mean they make a good album every year 01:29:56.760 --> 01:29:57.460 That's a good one 01:29:57.460 --> 01:29:57.980 That's a good one 01:29:58.100 --> 01:30:01.060 I think that's one that people might even do to me 01:30:01.220 --> 01:30:03.380 Because sometimes I feel like my list is full of bands 01:30:03.520 --> 01:30:04.200 And it just seems like 01:30:04.210 --> 01:30:05.500 Jay are you trying to find new music? 01:30:05.800 --> 01:30:07.000 But hey man 01:30:07.600 --> 01:30:08.840 Some of these bands have been around forever 01:30:08.960 --> 01:30:10.260 Been around forever for good reason 01:30:10.760 --> 01:30:10.900 Yeah 01:30:11.180 --> 01:30:11.240 Exactly 01:30:12.160 --> 01:30:12.740 True that 01:30:12.920 --> 01:30:13.180 Exactly 01:30:13.960 --> 01:30:14.180 Alright 01:30:14.960 --> 01:30:15.880 My number five 01:30:16.340 --> 01:30:17.760 Is one that we hear a lot 01:30:17.760 --> 01:30:47.620 And I wouldn't be surprised if somebody else put this down, but it's don't they care about the albums that come out for the rest of the year? Because their album or their list comes out in early November and people can't fathom that they get the promos ahead of time for the things that are coming out later in the year. So yeah, promos. Somebody always gets bent about that. God, like really fucking bent about it. Yeah. Which is crazy too, 01:30:47.780 --> 01:31:17.700 because if they read the magazine, they probably read the review sections. And a lot of those reviews come out before the albums come out. So they know they're getting shit early and they just forget conveniently. As I like to say, Albert gets the albums before they're even recorded. Yes. No, he gets throst and blotted for every single band. Yeah. All right. All right. Back to you, Markison. Yeah. So my number four is, hey, that, 01:31:17.760 --> 01:31:47.240 Number two album on your list is even metal. What the fuck? Oh, no, we're going to repeat ourselves. Yeah, we always have repeats. So it's good. Oh, yeah. I figured that was going to come up at least three or four times. Yeah. And, you know, I agree with that. We all agree with that at some point, because especially the number two, which is why I put it. Yeah, it wasn't random. So, you know, but we talked about this earlier. 01:31:47.420 --> 01:32:16.920 Sometimes it's like a feeling of metal or maybe they've been doing metal and then something they're doing now isn't quite metal and then it's what they decide. It's all about their writers and their lists and then trying to combine it just like we do. Yeah, you know, like over they haven't been metal for years, but their shit is still fucking metal as far as I'm concerned and it still shows up on metal lists too. I know. I know. They're actually the best example that George said put two metal albums of their whole catalog. Yeah. 01:32:17.400 --> 01:32:47.380 The First and Third, yeah. That one's a little bit tough for me because if I see an album and I don't consider it metal and it's on the list, it's like, I kind of wish they would take it off just so you could put another album on the list that I would consider metal. But of course, this is my preferences. So like the Decibel List this year, they had the little, you know how they do the little top fives in the columns and stuff? Number 41 was a tie and like Goat Horror was on there. Like they could have been on the list if they took off Oceans of 01:32:47.440 --> 01:33:17.380 Slumber, which is not a metal album to me. Even though they've done metal in the past. That's some of my favorite. They rated that record so hard, too. The Go-Hor record. Yeah. Those are some of my favorite things are the silly things they write on the sides of the pages. They're little top fives. And I wanted this to be sort of like one of those. So I have decibel envy. All right, Matt. My number four. So 01:33:17.420 --> 01:33:47.380 Nothing Good Comes Out in November and December then? Yeah. There you go. Right. Exactly. All right, John. All right, I'll do my three quick again. So this is the complainers on Facebook. Where the fuck is Insert Your Favorite Band? If they're not on the list. Where's this band? All right. My personal angry is how can you give an album a nine and you refuse and they don't even make the top 01:33:47.500 --> 01:33:47.900 40. 01:33:49.400 --> 01:33:49.680 Word. 01:33:50.160 --> 01:33:51.720 Every album, they give these nines. 01:33:51.840 --> 01:33:53.660 They're glowing reviews, and you don't see them ever again. 01:33:54.740 --> 01:33:59.240 And then my complaints about the complaints, would you be happy if they published a list in mid-January? 01:33:59.420 --> 01:33:59.760 No. 01:34:00.100 --> 01:34:00.660 You would bitch. 01:34:00.720 --> 01:34:01.420 It's too late then. 01:34:03.860 --> 01:34:13.080 The nines is a good one because in the newest decimal where they have the list, in the back where they do reviews, the hammers of Misfortune got a nine, but they're not on the list. 01:34:13.600 --> 01:34:13.740 Nope. 01:34:14.060 --> 01:34:43.720 So yeah, but again, it's like they have a lot of writers and people and they, they put out their list of what they like and then they have to do some kind of math to figure out what's going to go on there. So even, and again, and you mentioned this too, John, if you read the introduction, you know, Albert even said, he's like, there's albums that I love. That's not on the list. It's just the way it happens. How many, how many times have we done a year end where your favorite record of the year kind of got tanked by the rest of us? Oh yeah. It's happened to all of us. Yeah. 01:34:44.080 --> 01:35:12.300 It happens. As the podcast editor-in-chief, I'm just going to make some executive decisions from now on and just put my shit at the top. I'm like, oops, I made a typo. Is this still edited out right now? Are you editing this out right now? No. Okay. I won't say anything then. You can say something if you want, and I will. Nope. Awkward. No, no. 01:35:14.080 --> 01:35:42.780 My complaints. Okay. All right, then Jay. Okay. So let's see here. It's too, the list is too varied and all over the place. You know, and I think that, I feel that, I personally, I don't know if anybody says that, but I feel that keen because I always sort of feel like my taste is varied and all over the place. So it's super possible for a thrash record or something to be my number one. 01:35:43.080 --> 01:36:12.500 and something weird and avant-garde to be number two. You know what I mean? Like completely different things within the genre. And it really is like, I mean, I would call to mind here that they have like Ken Mode on there and stuff, which there are albums we all disagree with that they put on there. But if you really look at it, it's all over the place. And that's fine with me. But I bet you some people can't stand that. Yeah. People that don't like them straight from their lane, they're just like, I only like this. The gatekeepers get pissed about that stuff. Yeah. 01:36:12.580 --> 01:36:42.480 Yeah, exactly. Well, my number four is one that we have received this complaint. I know this one. In the reverse, and that is there isn't enough Death Doom music on this list. Yes. The reverse of that being is that we have too much Death Doom on the podcast. Which isn't really true. It's not really true, but it's funny. Not even close to it. It's true, but no. 01:36:42.960 --> 01:37:12.000 I think I've only been like 15% death doom every year. Yeah. Before we move on to, and we probably should have made a conversation out of this, but we don't have to. I don't know if you guys followed any of the controversy, which seems to follow this guy around. But I do have a question, George. I don't guess you did go see Wasp at Baltimore. That's next week. Or sorry, not next week. It's the 29th. Are you going? I have tickets. Will does too. Okay, cool. Yeah, there's been slight controversy around it because they were all like, it's going to be the biggest thing you ever saw. 01:37:12.060 --> 01:37:41.920 They're really just going off quite a bunch of songs. Now that stated apparently, I mean, well, I've seen footage and they sound great. That's good because I was considering skipping it just because I didn't feel like going. Watch some of the footage and it might change your mind just because he sounds so good, dude. I love his voice. I'll do it. I mean, it'll be interesting too because it's in Leesburg, which is like where that Total Wine and that Chinese place that we went to, for those of you that I took on, Matt, which is only like a half hour from my house. 01:37:42.060 --> 01:38:12.040 and no place that I've ever seen a band before. That's wild. Yeah. Well, they, I mean, if you really want to test your own dedication, you could look at the set list or something if you haven't done that. True. True. I'm also curious whether John Bush is going to be singing for Armand St. by then because that would be a possible deal breaker if he's not better by then. Oh, was he sick or something? Yeah. He was replaced 01:38:44.460 --> 01:39:11.420 Yes, number three. I think John mentioned this and exactly the way I'm about to say it too, and that is where the fuck is insert favorite band name here. Yeah, where are they? Exactly. It's probably the most common complaint because everybody has their favorites and they want to see them on the list, of course, but the thing of it is is that they people seem to get personally offended. Yes, their top record doesn't make the cut. It's an affront to them. It really is. 01:39:12.080 --> 01:39:41.620 They just can't wrap their brain around it. What the fuck? Exactly. You can just see them like grrrr. List rage. It would be nice to submit those people to when they're right. It didn't happen the way it does that, but like year-end lists from, you know, 85 or something. You might be surprised some of the shits it didn't make, you know, that everybody didn't recognize as great as it was when it was first out. Yeah, right. Yeah. 01:39:42.080 --> 01:40:11.040 Good one. Matt. Without Time Wave Zero by Blood Incantation. Well, that covers a couple of points there because it's both a where the hell is this band and also it's not a metal album. Yeah, that was kind of my theme with that one is like insert metal album that's not necessarily metal. 01:40:12.080 --> 01:40:41.980 Yep. Yep. I really like that record though. I know. Me too. Me too. John. Okay. So I'm going to preface this one. This is actually from our Facebook page. And so if the person who said this is listening, I am not coming after you. I just found this. Yes, he is. An interesting complaint about the list. Because it never dawned on me. 01:40:42.060 --> 01:40:43.120 that this was an issue. 01:40:45.620 --> 01:40:48.380 It's obvious this list is biased towards American bands. 01:40:48.660 --> 01:40:49.780 I'm like, what? 01:40:50.580 --> 01:40:51.680 I never even thought of that. 01:40:52.260 --> 01:40:55.040 So that's one of our, on our Facebook page. 01:40:55.200 --> 01:40:56.320 I'm not coming after you. 01:40:56.380 --> 01:40:59.600 I just thought it was an interesting take on the list. 01:40:59.980 --> 01:41:00.160 Right. 01:41:00.960 --> 01:41:01.260 All right. 01:41:01.780 --> 01:41:02.020 All right. 01:41:02.140 --> 01:41:04.740 My number three, I think we can all appreciate this. 01:41:05.280 --> 01:41:09.220 Why is Paradise Lost and Napalm Death always ranked in the top five when they release an album? 01:41:10.920 --> 01:41:12.000 That would be Albert. 01:41:14.520 --> 01:41:14.820 All right. 01:41:15.880 --> 01:41:18.140 And then my number three complaint about complainers. 01:41:18.300 --> 01:41:22.960 Why are you whining about an obscure band that no one's ever heard of and only five people have bought on Bandcamp? 01:41:24.040 --> 01:41:24.840 Because that's metal. 01:41:26.180 --> 01:41:30.580 So that goes with Markisan you and I mentioning insert favorite band. 01:41:30.980 --> 01:41:31.060 Yep. 01:41:32.880 --> 01:41:33.520 All right, Jay. 01:41:36.520 --> 01:41:37.360 Let's see. 01:41:37.800 --> 01:41:39.520 Okay, I'll do That's Not Metal. 01:41:39.600 --> 01:41:41.900 which has been stated and that is 01:41:42.400 --> 01:41:46.240 frequent you know that's a that's a big thing all the time which is funny because that means 01:41:46.460 --> 01:41:49.300 you know you're the arbiter of what's metal and what's not and 01:41:50.420 --> 01:41:55.360 at the very least i always i personally would tend to defer to 01:41:56.000 --> 01:42:02.860 people older than myself on that kind of um like um in this case that's only john 01:42:02.880 --> 01:42:32.840 I'm trusting in John. John has the final say. I will render my judgment later. What I mean is John, most of us has lived through the vast history of metal. And it's a little more all-encompassing than you think. Up to and including even new things that have equivalents in the past, but you might have to stretch pretty hard to find them. I'm not a big fan of the whole 01:42:33.560 --> 01:43:02.340 Let me tell you what better was like back in 1980. My number three, don't think about it. Just accept it. If you don't eat your meat, you can't have any pudding. How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat? That's it. I don't like pudding. I love pudding. 01:43:02.520 --> 01:43:31.180 Well, then you can't have your meat, can you? I actually like Yorkshire pudding, too. Oh, yeah. That's one of my favorites. Although I got figgy pudding spam. Oh, God. Yeah. Not that pudding. I don't want figgy pudding and I don't want spam and I certainly don't want them together. Oh, my gosh. I haven't had it yet. Tomorrow, I think I'm going to have it. Tell you what else I like, Marcus, on pudding. Pudding? You know what I'm talking about. Yeah. Pudding. Pudding. 01:43:37.460 --> 01:44:01.600 All right. Well, this one's been said a couple times, I think. And so I wrote it out this way. There's almost two months of the year left to go. What about all the albums yet to be released? Insert thinking emoji. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. It drives me crazy, this one. As we've said. Yeah, that's one of the worst. They get all the albums way in advance. That's why they can do this. 01:44:02.300 --> 01:44:10.920 Yep. Yeah. Maddy. Number two, you clearly did not hear the cult EP. 01:44:14.760 --> 01:44:32.060 Well, and this was a great one. So this is what I did. You did what I, what I was going to do. And that's why I asked George how it was going to go. I was going to pick stuff right from there. And they talk about the cult EP and I was thinking about the cult album, right? So there's a lot of things wrong with this because a, it's not the cult that we're thinking. I'm not the cult. 01:44:32.120 --> 01:45:02.080 the band the person that wrote that wrote cult EP that's the title of the EP but they didn't put the name of the band in it at all exactly so there's a lot wrong with that but yeah and it's an EP and it's an EP that's the other thing which doesn't go on the decimal list yeah exactly yeah all right John all right I'll do my quick we've already mentioned this this one is going to tie both the complaints on Facebook and in my complaints about the complaint 01:45:02.100 --> 01:45:32.080 It's only November. What about the rest of the year? We've done this one already. So my complaint about their list is, do you even list in the middle? What's up with the Noise Rock, Darkwave, and Avant-Garde bands? Which is their basic, their number two pick every year. I almost think that they do it on purpose just to fuck with everybody. Which, if that's the case, then I'm down with it. I'm cool. And then my complaint about the complainers, do you even know how combined lists are put together? Do you even know what it entails when you've 01:45:32.120 --> 01:46:02.040 They've got X number of writers. Statistical analysis. I mean, they've got umpteen number of people that they're putting all their lists together. Do you even know what that means? Have you comprehended the fact that your album may not even show up even though it's on your list? Yeah. And high, it could be your number one and not show up. Exactly. Which, by the way, that calls to mind a question, John, and it would be a difficult baseball statistic to do. But I wonder how many, on average, how many albums on the list were never mentioned in the Dust Bowl in any other. 01:46:04.580 --> 01:46:32.080 You know, that's... Yeah, that's... I never thought of that. That'd be interesting to go back and look at, go through their reviews and all the albums they talk about during the year and how many, like, didn't make it and how many did they never mention made it. Yeah, because... How many number twos made their list? Or, you know. Well, it'd be cool to, like, go back and see all the albums they gave, like, an eight or a nine, which is pretty high. You know, you never see a ten... Well, you have seen ten... 01:46:32.140 --> 01:47:01.960 But it's pretty rare. Pretty rare, yeah. So anything from 8 Up, it would be interesting to make a list and then look at their top 25 and see which one of those actually made it. Because all those are really highly rated records. And so just in case this is still hard for everyone to understand, because by the way, we're only at two hours and ten minutes, so I can go off on this shit for as long as I want. You got a whole slew of people. You got to put all these albums in one big pot and you got to figure it out. 01:47:02.940 --> 01:47:04.200 That's just how it works. 01:47:04.880 --> 01:47:08.080 If you don't understand why Undeath is number one on their list, 01:47:08.440 --> 01:47:10.220 that album may have showed up on every list. 01:47:10.360 --> 01:47:14.280 It may not have even made it past 10 on someone's list, 01:47:14.560 --> 01:47:16.420 but it showed up on everyone's list. 01:47:16.520 --> 01:47:16.740 Yeah. 01:47:17.900 --> 01:47:20.080 And you have to listen to John because, as Jay said, 01:47:20.420 --> 01:47:21.940 John is old and he's the authority. 01:47:22.480 --> 01:47:24.400 And he is our statistician. 01:47:24.880 --> 01:47:27.200 Let me tell you about Metal in 1978. 01:47:35.580 --> 01:47:39.220 I brought that in today's terms so you knew what I was talking about. 01:47:39.380 --> 01:47:39.900 Right. 01:47:42.600 --> 01:47:42.920 All right. 01:47:43.320 --> 01:47:43.640 All right. 01:47:44.060 --> 01:47:44.140 Jay. 01:47:46.280 --> 01:47:46.560 Okay. 01:47:46.680 --> 01:47:47.540 Which one of these didn't I? 01:47:48.100 --> 01:47:48.640 I did that. 01:47:48.940 --> 01:47:49.320 Metal. 01:47:49.480 --> 01:47:49.920 You know. 01:47:52.320 --> 01:47:52.440 Yeah. 01:47:52.820 --> 01:47:55.060 I'll say I have a good last one. 01:47:55.060 --> 01:47:55.960 The rest of these weren't in order. 01:47:56.560 --> 01:47:57.220 There's two more. 01:47:58.020 --> 01:47:58.960 This one's been said too, 01:47:59.040 --> 01:47:59.360 which is. 01:47:59.480 --> 01:48:29.380 You left out some obscure thing that only I know about. I'm sure people want them to scour band camps and listen to your friend's band and all that stuff. Hey man, so many hours in their day. I'm just waiting for that one dude to say, dude, everyone knows Bat Squatch was the best album this year. That was a beer I had last weekend. I brought that up, George, because we drank that recently. Bat Squatch. 01:48:29.820 --> 01:48:59.340 Yeah, Squatch. Everyone knows that's the best grindcore I'll ever. If Catatonic Society is not in there, you're an asshole. When that new one comes out, I will definitely post that in the complaints. That'll be a blister. Or a blister, I don't know. Fuck you guys at Desmond. All right. George. My number two is not new at all, but I'm going to put my own spin on it. I used HTML brackets. 01:48:59.480 --> 01:49:29.440 without insert album not on the list by insert band not on the list that list doesn't mean anything aka their list sucks because my favorite album isn't on there your list is invalid because that album's not there yep that's a that's a really good one george yeah what was it what was it oh yeah this album's on it there shit list i saw that how many times on there yeah yes good call that's a good one george that is a great one yep 01:49:30.540 --> 01:49:58.400 All right, mark us on number one. Take us home, man. Yes, this is the most valid and absolutely true complaint we hear about the decibel list every year, and it's mostly from the people in this very Zoom chat. The Metalheads Podcast Top 25 is so much fucking better than yours. Yes, but this is supposed to be funny, not true. Right, it's funny and true. It's funny and true. All right, fair enough. 01:49:59.460 --> 01:50:27.640 That's a double-edged sword for Microsoft. Boom. Boom. All right, Matt. My number one. No Lord of Shore. Vacation. Shadow of Intent. You see the overarching theme there. Yeah. All right. John, then. That's funny you should mention the Lord of Shore because my number one complaint is, this list is too mainstream. 01:50:29.440 --> 01:50:59.380 Really? All right. My number one complaint. It's been mentioned once before. There's not enough death doom bands on our list every year. We love you, James. And my number one bitching complaint about the bitching complainers. Stop bitching about a subjective list and post your own list if you know so goddamn much. By the way, do you know the difference between objective and subjective? 01:50:59.500 --> 01:51:29.420 Slow clap. Post your own list if you think you're so damn smart. That's right. It's all for fun. It is funny, too, because people do complain and they never post their own list. I mean, some people do, but most people do. George, was it last year George White challenged that one guy who was just bitching up a storm? So last year George made a post early on about people bitching, and this year I did it. But I remember last year George 01:51:29.460 --> 01:51:59.280 you did it. Some guy was just bitch. And I finally said, dude, just post your list. Let's see what you got. Nothing. Silence. Silence. You ain't got no list, bitch, because you only got one album that only five people in band camp bought. Listless. He's only got Lorna Shore on his list. Look, I might be old, but I'll bring the shit on this one. Yep. Yeah. Don't mess with the ball unless you want to get the horns. Yeah. What? No disturbed? What the fuck? Well, then. 01:51:59.460 --> 01:52:28.900 That didn't drop until just today, so that was totally past the time that Decibel would have even heard it. Yeah. It's just so funny. Man, get over yourselves. Okay. Mine is just about as general as you can get, but it's because so many people out there in the metal community are basically the comic book guy on The Simpsons' worst episode ever. And it's just simply you don't know anything about metal. Yes. Yeah. 01:52:29.460 --> 01:52:57.480 But it's, Jay, you say it's the most general. It's like the most biting from fans. You don't know shit about metal. Yeah. You're right. You know, five-figure death punch. We should have put them on the list. Only been doing this magazine for 20 years. Where's the slip dot? Yeah. So my number one is actually pretty close to Jay's, but I just went full nihilist on this one. So imagine like an emo hair flip. 01:53:00.420 --> 01:53:26.020 These albums all suck. You suck. Die. I like it, George. I like it. You know, one thing that didn't get represented, and this is where I thought you were going with that, which is that everything that came out this year sucked. You know what I mean? That's definitely an opinion that's out there. It's just fucking not like it used to be. There aren't any fucking good records. Yeah. Well, get off your FM radio, douche. 01:53:30.280 --> 01:53:57.100 So you got plenty of ammunition to lob at us when we do our list next month. You know what? Actually, yeah. Go ahead and bitch about our list so we can laugh. Yeah. I already know it. Too many, too many prog albums on your list. Yeah. No shit. Yeah. All right. Well, there's only one thing left to do. And that is proclaim an album of the episode. 01:53:59.460 --> 01:54:29.380 Did you guys hear about that reissue of Mass and Non-Slob icon? Fuck you! What? I'm editing it that I'm going to edit that out so it won't be there. So it makes no sense. It happened. Poor Matt, he never gets to pick anything else. Hey George, I would edit all that out and just have us all going, what? With a long pause before it. You're like, what happened? Well, Markasson. 01:54:29.440 --> 01:54:58.700 What's yours? I mean, I gotta go with Iron Maiden Beast over Hammersmith because that is an album that's been talked about and talked about and talked about. It's legendary here on the cast. And finally got it today and got to spin it once. So I look forward to spinning it many, many more times. I have heard it, of course, but Mount of Vinyl. Hey, Marcus, best moment on the album. I know Jay might agree is right before. 01:54:59.460 --> 01:55:29.360 for a number of the beast. Literally, we're going to play a song called, you know, we're not, excuse me, right before Run to the Hills, third song on the album. Literally, no one claps. Yeah. It's like just, he says, well, it's all your fault. You're the ones who made it number one, I guess, because the video had just come out. No, no, no. He's talking about, he's talking about Tizwaz, which is this Saturday show. Yes. Right. In England. And he's saying, are you guys watching Tizwaz? Because he says the guy's showing a bunch of cowboy movies on there. Yeah. He says, it's your fucking fault. Yeah. Literally. 01:55:31.880 --> 01:55:58.180 Nobody claps to run to the hills. It's an amazing moment. That's great. Ignorance. By the way, John BT just posted pictures of his copy. Nice. Everybody's getting it. So glad people are getting it. Oh, no, I actually reordered it. It's supposed to come on Sunday. Then I'll just cancel my previous order. Oh, okay. 01:56:00.560 --> 01:56:29.240 I have no idea. Supposedly it's delayed. I'm like, I literally bought mine after you bought your. I know I bought mine first. I'm the one who saw it first. I said, dude, you ordo it, man. I got ordo it. Yes. I'm glad everyone's getting it because I've just always loved it. That live album. I didn't get it. That's well, you know, maybe you will. Hey George, if I get two, you might get one. Maybe Shannon going to be kind. 01:56:29.460 --> 01:56:37.260 You. A Santa don't come my house. Ain't no Santa here. We somehow sling blade and James 01:56:37.460 --> 01:56:59.160 Headfield into our episode from the South. All right, Matt, go ahead and say it. It's a contractual obligation that I signed before Mastodon was even a band. But if the album Leviathan by Mastodon was mentioned, that is my album of the episode. Second place would be an unexpected reality by Gate Creeper. Ooh. 01:56:59.460 --> 01:57:28.920 That's fair. Nice. All right, Joni. George, get your zucchini out. It's been out the whole time. What are you talking about? It never goes in. It's an outie. It's just permanently out all the time. Ever since the pandemic, who wears pants? Come on. Just flopping about. All right. Have you ever seen basketball? 01:57:29.460 --> 01:57:31.100 Oh, I love that movie. 01:57:31.840 --> 01:57:34.940 Where they're in the locker room and they turn around quickly and it's like, whew. 01:57:35.880 --> 01:57:36.000 Yeah. 01:57:36.620 --> 01:57:37.620 I forgot about that. 01:57:37.920 --> 01:57:38.480 Don't they sleep? 01:57:38.500 --> 01:57:40.760 I also like the argument in that movie that takes place like this. 01:57:40.980 --> 01:57:41.160 Dude. 01:57:42.040 --> 01:57:42.220 Dude. 01:57:42.220 --> 01:57:42.620 Dude. 01:57:42.900 --> 01:57:43.020 Dude. 01:57:43.300 --> 01:57:43.540 Dude. 01:57:43.800 --> 01:57:45.300 And then he finally, at the end, it's like, dude. 01:57:45.540 --> 01:57:46.360 He's like, you know what? 01:57:46.360 --> 01:57:47.180 I didn't think about that. 01:57:48.480 --> 01:57:54.400 Does anyone catch that movie that Little Bitch is the Kenny character, but in real life? 01:57:55.240 --> 01:57:56.080 Oh, fuck you. 01:57:56.620 --> 01:57:58.780 The guy they keep calling Little Bitch, the whole film? 01:57:58.820 --> 01:57:58.920 Yeah. 01:57:59.480 --> 01:58:00.740 That's their Kenny character 01:58:01.540 --> 01:58:02.420 Okay, I'll buy that 01:58:02.940 --> 01:58:05.620 Yeah, George, that scene in the locker room 01:58:05.720 --> 01:58:07.200 Don't they do a slow-mo on that too? 01:58:07.880 --> 01:58:08.380 I don't know 01:58:08.470 --> 01:58:11.400 Well, it's always like just at the bottom of the screen 01:58:11.530 --> 01:58:12.760 So you don't really see it 01:58:12.770 --> 01:58:16.100 But you just, you know, you hear the sound and the movement 01:58:16.150 --> 01:58:17.760 And it's like he turns and it's just like 01:58:20.200 --> 01:58:21.240 Where do they make out again? 01:58:21.300 --> 01:58:24.360 The mookalaka-laka board or something like that at the end 01:58:24.620 --> 01:58:26.540 Remember, they do this whole make-out scene 01:58:26.850 --> 01:58:27.760 At the very end of the movie 01:58:28.660 --> 01:58:57.720 Yeah, I don't remember that. Basketball. Yeah. But that is just about one of the funniest fucking things I've ever seen in my life. That scene. Well, since you're swishing around and you got your zucchini, I'm doing it. Yeah, I said it. Devin Townsend, Lightwork is my album of the episode because it's so damn positive. And like I said, it's nice to hear something that's not negative for once because every time you turn around, 01:58:57.800 --> 01:59:27.680 There's something negative in your face. It's nice to have something that's not like that. Or something in your face. It's typo positive. Yeah, that's the problem. Everything in my face hasn't been positive. So, you know, I have to go with the maiden, too. And I've said so much about it. There's only a two, except that I just noticed, like, look how it's delineated on the spine. The number of the beast over Hammersmith. Because that's two records in this one package. That's a fucking nice little sentence, right? Yeah, it is. The number of the beast over Hammersmith. 01:59:27.780 --> 01:59:28.820 So yeah, 01:59:29.140 --> 01:59:30.340 so glad to have this on vinyl. 01:59:31.620 --> 01:59:33.280 I haven't had a chance to spin it on vinyl yet, 01:59:33.320 --> 01:59:34.340 but we'll do that tomorrow. 01:59:35.120 --> 01:59:36.300 I feel like I'm missing out. 01:59:36.520 --> 01:59:38.420 I'm having Hammersmith envy. 01:59:39.360 --> 01:59:39.840 It's just, 01:59:41.060 --> 01:59:41.340 well, 01:59:41.480 --> 01:59:41.560 no, 01:59:41.800 --> 01:59:42.600 I talk about it too much. 01:59:42.780 --> 01:59:43.240 It's just such a, 01:59:43.400 --> 01:59:44.200 it's probably my favorite live. 01:59:44.720 --> 01:59:44.980 Yeah. 01:59:45.260 --> 01:59:46.000 And if anyone does know, 01:59:46.000 --> 01:59:50.240 we're talking about just go onto YouTube and you just watch some of the clips, 01:59:50.380 --> 01:59:55.400 just put Iron Maiden live at Hammersmith and they'll all come up and they're all awesome. 01:59:55.760 --> 02:00:25.380 And it looks fake, but there's really an audience there. There's really a crowd. It's not metaverse. No. And Bruce doesn't sound like Bruce, which is really cool about it, too, which is kind of cool. He's got a whole different register going on in that live show. He's got the original register. Jesus, this thing's $60? The only thing is, I don't remember hearing that much. But since I am holding it, you also get to hear him. 02:00:25.500 --> 02:00:54.840 And you may have heard him sing some of these on other things, but forgive me. Well, first of all, Invaders Live, which is crazy. Writers in the Room Morgue, Wrathchild, Another Life, that's like fucking killer. Killers, Transylvania is on there, Prowler. I mean, these are things you don't get to hear Burs sing every day. Phantom of the Opera. All three albums are equally represented on the album. And as is Number of the Beast. Yeah, you're right. All three. 02:00:54.900 --> 02:01:24.880 All three are represented nicely. I was about to, what do you call that, impulse buy that, but at $60 my zucchini wilted. I don't remember paying $60. It's between like $50 something and $60. I mean, not that I'm averse to paying that much for vinyl back in the day, but when I don't, now, nah. I know it's hard for me to stop myself, but here's the other thing I'll say about the 02:01:24.900 --> 02:01:52.480 It contains all the energy of a band that is aware they just made a really good record. It's about Supernova. And was not Supernova at the time. You know, they were still living with his grandma. You know what I mean? And there was, there's so much energy on this thing. It's pre-MTV, basically. I mean, these songs were just hitting MTV at that time. Yeah, I've never seen a number of the beast on Friday Night Videos. Oh, it's just awesome. It's just like on NBC or something. Yeah. 02:01:55.740 --> 02:02:24.700 My album of the episode is also Devin Townsend. Scoot over, John. Wow. I'm on the zucchini. Yeah, the zucchini train. All right. Will shows up and it just becomes Dick Tastic. It does. Dick Tastic. I had a couple other names for the episode. One of them doesn't work because he left before it became his birthday. I was going to say we should call it Happy Birthday, 02:02:24.920 --> 02:02:54.840 Mr. President. So his birthday is like midnight tomorrow. Okay. Yeah. We're going to have to do a whole new segment to get to that. Yeah. So now my, now my suggestion for the episode title is land speed record. Are you guys doing anything specific tomorrow? Is it just kind of getting hammered? We can't tell you. Oh, it's a secret. What? No, no. We're, we're going to Atlas. 02:02:56.180 --> 02:03:03.280 around like two o'clock and yeah and whatever else i clearly john and will are gonna go to the 02:03:03.350 --> 02:03:08.740 casual pint and have fun without me but yeah i don't know yet i mean it depends i gotta work tomorrow 02:03:08.890 --> 02:03:18.600 morning so all right you gotta work tomorrow dude it's just this is like three years of shit just culminating into one 02:03:19.370 --> 02:03:23.980 big giant turd at the end of the the end of this year so i'm working every day so 02:03:26.920 --> 02:03:53.960 We have a different situation, but we are also dealing with three years of this weird COVID exhaustion thing at work, and that has put us deeply behind on so many things. Our studies usually last roughly two years each, and we run concurrently a current study. We do a future one and a past one. All parts of them are all happening at the same time from three different times, and this one's just been 02:03:54.000 --> 02:04:23.960 Am I 20 coming up on 28 years without question the worst one we've ever done brutal all right well this is probably one of the shortest episodes we've done in years I have that snow globe this is going back to like I get this is for me yes it's funny mine the the snow has all turned red 02:04:24.540 --> 02:04:52.780 It's raining blood. It's snowing blood. Is that right? Yeah, it's all like... That would probably be it, yeah. It's sitting on my shelf in my office that does get some sunlight. Well, George, my bath snow globe says hi to your bath snow globe. Indeed. What did that joke come with? Did Abeth give that to you personally? No, it was just a special release with the first solo record. Yeah, I bought it separately. 02:04:53.980 --> 02:05:23.740 No, but as you know, it was a copy of his album. And I didn't tell you this, Matt, but Sergey stole mine. And I didn't have the heart to tell it. Like, that was kind of important to me, dude, but he didn't have the record. Sure, sure. That's fair. That's fair. Yeah, but I wish I had it. You can always go visit it. And you could always be stealthy and just steal it from him. He'd never notice. He'd never notice. After all. Hey, Jay, when you go over to the house, say, 02:05:24.000 --> 02:05:53.960 Hey Siri, why don't you get that on that poster on the wall? And he'll look at it directly. Just snag it on him right there. Viva la Abath! Or just hit him in the head with that snow globe and take it. That's how the snow globe got red. Just because we're chatting now, and I know we're going to wrap this up, but I'm going to say this just because I did. I just watched that movie last night, The Road to Perdition. That was pretty fucking good. Oh, yeah. What is that? I never got around to that. It's been a while. It's where Tom Hanks is like a... 02:05:57.200 --> 02:06:20.760 It's actually based on a comic book. Is it? Isn't everything? Not everything, but it's funny. Now it seems like that's the case, but when that movie came out, you know, people don't know. When movies like that, if it's not superhero and it comes out, sometimes people don't even realize that it's based on a comic. Sure. There's a lot of movies like that, but yeah, it's a good movie. Yeah. 02:06:24.940 --> 02:06:26.720 A heavy metal podcast. 02:06:27.670 --> 02:06:29.480 And it's not, there's no superheroes. 02:06:29.880 --> 02:06:31.600 It's just about heavy metal and podcasts. 02:06:32.760 --> 02:06:34.080 Just podcasting and metal. 02:06:34.520 --> 02:06:34.740 Yes. 02:06:35.600 --> 02:06:35.780 Right. 02:06:36.100 --> 02:06:37.760 And every panel is a different person. 02:06:39.240 --> 02:06:41.720 I wonder if there's a comic about a podcast. 02:06:41.980 --> 02:06:43.600 It seems like it would be really boring. 02:06:44.320 --> 02:06:44.520 Yeah. 02:06:45.020 --> 02:06:45.920 Podcasting are not. 02:06:46.100 --> 02:06:48.140 Unlike our episodes, which are not. 02:06:48.280 --> 02:06:48.780 No, no, no. 02:06:49.180 --> 02:06:49.620 Of course not. 02:06:50.320 --> 02:06:52.060 A comic about it. 02:06:52.540 --> 02:06:56.640 We just have loads of stuff going on in our podcast. It would just be like 02:06:57.300 --> 02:06:59.540 bubbles with like dick, dick, dick, dick, dick, dick, dick, dick, dick, dick. 02:07:01.880 --> 02:07:02.480 That sounds terrible. 02:07:03.280 --> 02:07:09.460 So this is our shortest one going back to what, 2015 when I first got on? 02:07:09.560 --> 02:07:09.780 Probably. 02:07:10.480 --> 02:07:14.320 How many people turned off at like the 47 dick jokes in the first 10 minutes? 02:07:14.980 --> 02:07:15.420 I don't know. 02:07:17.100 --> 02:07:19.460 Well, I mean, George could cut some of that out, I suppose. 02:07:20.040 --> 02:07:21.440 So we'll be down to what, 43? 02:07:22.000 --> 02:07:51.780 Yeah, this is going to be under an hour when I'm done with it. A number of people are going to be listening to it. Get up to go use the bathroom and come back. Yeah. They're done? They did their top five already? Yeah. Well, we could just, you know, do a roundtable now and just go for another hour or two. I love the short one. I'm into it. Yeah. That's not what she said. Well, it's what I said. I like this. Very well. As great as it was, it was nice to see you guys. 02:07:52.020 --> 02:08:21.360 Yeah, likewise. In a few short weeks, in a world where metal is really cool, there will be a new episode. And that episode will be the Metalheads Podcast 2022 year-end episode. The spring is the pain. Top 25s. And it will be our longest, in contrast to this, our shortest. Oh, fuck that. Let's do it. Let's go short on the year-end. That would be tough. 02:08:21.420 --> 02:08:50.400 Well, so as I'm supposedly told, Will and John will be here with me. Yes, I was hoping that would happen. So things could get a little out of hand or possibly in hand as it may turn out. George, you know what that means, right? The chicken's going to be at the podcast. Oh, yes. Chicken's coming back, baby. It makes me so happy that you guys are getting out and do it. When the cock crows. 02:08:50.420 --> 02:09:20.260 That sounds like crickets. When the cock crows, the list is nigh. The chicken, he's not ready. He wasn't prepared. I like his voice box removed or something. Fuck it. So much more. Did Jason cut his gaggle hanging from his neck? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Fucking urine. Oh, my gosh. Fucking urine, man. Yeah. You're on your lists. God bless the beast over Hammersmith. Fuck yeah. See ya. All right. And let me just say one more thing before. 02:09:20.440 --> 02:09:29.160 Love you, buddy. Fuck the rest of you. Bye. Guys. Bye. 02:10:12.920 --> 02:10:19.680 I just want to say thank you for being a perfect representation. 02:10:20.440 --> 02:10:29.760 of the ratio of the metal community. That would be 83% white dudes in their 40s, 17% out there.
