Three more albums make my Picks of the Week—including a dark, atmospheric new release I couldn’t stop playing, something completely outside the rock/metal lane, and a brutally heavy record from the past with a pretty incredible connection.
Plus: some sad news from the rock world, Metallica wants your blood, Dirty Honey finally makes it official, Ozzfest is expanding, Quiet Riot finds its new voice, and Angus Young has one of the stranger fan encounters you’ll hear about.
And somehow we end up talking about Lenny Kravitz’s rack, National Album Day, internet piracy, and one of the best books I’ve read in a long time.
New episodes every Tuesday and Friday.
