The thoughtfulness and attention given to the album reviews are almost as good as the albums themselves. Love the show and appreciate all the hard work.
I’ve been listening to this podcast since day one.
The Hyperblast format that was introduced has been a great improvement with news, live reviews and opinions I’ve come to trust. The new release album section has put so many bands on my radar and it’s great that they let you know what genre or vibe they are.
Can you get the one who can’t speak very well some speech therapy? I would imagine that being able to speak properly is the bare minimum if you are going to host a podcast? Borderline unlistenable
Gone by the wayside now. Made up genders, insisting covid was a scam blah blah blah.
Avoid. Try The Heavyist instead.
Good bunch of folks, funny, engaging and charismatic, as well as smart and well thought out. Thanks for introducing me to stuff like Fall of Efrafa, Panopticon and Primordial.
