    I was never really a podcast guy in the past. Got into it with Pod of Thunder and got turned on to InObscuria through their show. So glad I started listening to Kevin and Robert on a weekly basis. I’ve always enjoyed finding new music that is not considered mainstream and each week I find something I can further explore by listening to them. Extremely knowledgeable and always entertaining. My work week ends on a high note with InObscuria every Friday. A fan for life ! Keep the obscure coming guy... more

  • Great deep dive podcast!

    Really great podcast for finding out about bands you may have missed out on, or for deep dives into bands, genres and scenes you already knew about. Obviously, it’s a weekly show so not every week is gong to be something you really dig, but they’ve turned me on to a lot of music i love that I hadn’t heard before.

  • I feel like this review should go to 11. Easily one of the best podcasts out there. Always entertaining (with two amazing hosts), a lot of great music discovery, and honestly... honestly a show I look forward to each week. Love it so much I had to build a playlist for all the great music they bring to me. Way better than radio, and way more than a podcast. And they use exhumation on their website. That's always worth something.
