Parental Advisory Explicit Content. We’re joined by our good friend Sam “The Man” Wetz to discuss AC/DC’s dirtiest album ever: Ballbreaker. With an in depth lyrical breakdown of songs like “Cover You in Oil” and “The Honey Roll”, you’ll be shocked by just how lewd and politically incorrect AC/DC was in 1995. Is Ballbreaker a concept album about perpetual male ejaculation? Is Ballbreaker also a politically reactionary album with a bias against the Clinton administration? Did the release of the album cause the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal to happen? Also was Ballbreaker a reaction to casual fans who ..read more

Eric and Eddy return with a metal-punk crossover extravaganza! We’re joined by YouTube’s Rich Talks Records to discuss Iggy and the Stooges’ seminal album: Raw Power. Proto punk? Proto metal?

So if you like some danger and power in your rock music, this episode is for you ..read more
