History in Five Songs with Martin Popoff

Pantheon Media

History in Five Songs with Martin Popoff is the show that aims to make grand and often oddball hard rock and heavy metal points through a narrative built upon the tiny idea of a quintet of songs. Buttressed with illustrative clips, Martin argues quickly and succinctly why these songs - and the specific sections of these tracks - support his mad professor premise, from the wobbly invention of an “A... more

  • Love it

    I’ve been listening to this pod for a while now and Martin’s breadth of knowledge across rock music is quite impressive.

Also he gives a lot of love to overlooked bands from the 70s, 80s and 90s and has turned me on to some great tunes!
