One More Song

After a year and a half of listening to us tell inside jokes and stories only we could possibly care about, and to celebrate our 25th episode, we’ve finally made good on our threats and are discussing Tool’s 3rd full-length album Lateralus in this latest episode.  We also talk about Alex’s enjoyment of Modest Yahoo and also…Read more Episode 25 – Lateralus

In this episode we explore a variety of topics.  Everything from an “islands in the stream” sing-along to whether or not Jimmy Page is Asian.  We also talk about Ian’s quintessential Icelandic metal experience and how both Alex and Ian wrote songs blatantly ripping off songs from Life in Your Way.  Oh and speaking of…Read more Episode 24 – Waking Giants

In this episode we again go a little off course and don’t end up covering an actual album.  That’s ok though because you get to hear about the time Ian picked up a crackhead and why even financially obligating himself to attend events he WANTS to go to isn’t enough to make him actually go.  We do,…Read more Episode 23 – Blowing Off Steam

In today’s episode we give the people what they want and review another yelly music album, Poison the Well’s The Opposite of December… A Season of Separation.  We also discuss the band’s history as well as recent offers and I tease a story that is ultimately never discussed again.  Enjoy! download episode

In this episode, we reminisce about our experiences with seeing Shai Hulud over this past summer and what we took away from the first “local” feeling show either of us had been to in many years. The epigram “the more things change, the more they stay the same” is fitting in this instance.  Additionally, Alex vents about…Read more Episode 21 – A Shai Hulud Retrospective

We decided to switch things up a bit with this episode and take it down a couple notches in what we are dubbing the “After Hours” episode.  In this episode Alex learns something disturbing about Skrillex (besides the overall existence of Skrillex) and also tries to explain why his new bicycle purchase doesn’t make him equal to a beach bum…Read more Episode 20 – After Hours

In this episode we got a little off-genre again and explore a fairly straightforward rock album from just a few years ago, The Gaslight Anthem’s Handwritten.  Additionally, Alex reports on another Hindu wedding he recently attended and we learn that Ian should not record a podcast after/during some mild imbibing.  Enjoy! download episode

In today’s episode, we get to a new level of emo by reviewing Death Cab for Cutie’s Transatlanticism.  In order to make that more bearable, we sandwich the review with a little metal-talk about a youtube video Ian recently saw of Cattle Decapitation’s vocalist exploring new dirty vocal techniques in the studio as well as play…Read more Episode 18 – Transatlanticism

In this episode we explore our guilty music pleasures.  Artists such as Big Freedia, Karmella’s Game, Brooks & Dunn and Craig David.  And if you can get through both of us showing off how we can sing along to songs from the 90s (REM and Outkast), you’ll get to hear a story about how Ian was…Read more Episode 17 – Guilty Pleasures

In this week’s episode we discuss what happened to Charles Bukowski for being such a nice guy, why Sara Bareilles may or may not make good music for a long commute and how it’s possible for someone to like both emo tunes and the bounce music of Big Freedia at the same time.  Oh and we also…Read more Episode 16 – Bleed American
