Fantastic podcast that includes some serious analysis and deep-dives. Theres a 5 episode behemoth on the making of Dio’s Strange Highway album - who could say no to that?
One of my favorite podcasts and I listen to and subscribe to many.
This podcast and the Rock and Roll Geek Show are the two best out there.
This podcast is the real deal. These guys have followed rock and metal for a long time and share their in depth knowledge. Great interviews. Great history. If you like rock and metal you will enjoy this podcast.
The show is always great, Richie and Scott are top notch, very few shows can touch them.
Focus on Metal is my favorite music podcast. I love the in depth coverage of old and new bands, including producers, engineers, and anyone related you happen to unearth. I will admit that I jump all over your interviews with artists I grew up with, but I'm following a lot of new bands I found through your podcast, and I've noticed they make their way into my morning commute more and more. Thanks for your hard and excellent work.
