Back on Zoom. New shirts. Same chaos.
Noman and Rory are back — and they have absolutely no idea who those two old guys from that other podcast are. Never heard of them.
Two hours of music discovery this week. Some of it heavy. Some of it theatrical. Some of it from places you wouldn't expect. All of it worth your time.
There's a pirate metal origin story that predates everything you think you know about pirate metal. There's a band from Quebec whose mythology runs so deep it connects to other bands you've never heard of. There's a Swedish band formed in a high school music competition that has absolutely no business sounding the way they do. There's a guilty pleasure that turns out not to be guilty at all. And there's a vocal performance that stops everyone cold.
Also — Sabotage. And what happened to them. You're not ready.
Georgia has been spotted elsewhere. The investigation is ongoing.
The Kraken has been released. 🦑

Speaker B:No, you have to have a good level of libation and libationless.
Speaker B:But here's what I need to know for, like, you're cracking before.
Speaker B:It's when.
Speaker B:Before you take the first sip, you usually have to, like, you admire it, smell it, you know, get ready.
Speaker B:But then you have to just.
Speaker B:You have to give it your good old.
Speaker B:How do you say, yeah, gonna blow on.
Speaker B:How's your.

Speaker A:So that's what they need.
Speaker A:They need.
Speaker C:They need.
Speaker A:They need him and Steve Irwin to show up.
Speaker A:A ghost fest.
Speaker B:That would.
Speaker B:That would be awesome.
Speaker B:Yeah, he'd be like.
Speaker B:Like, zoinks, there's a ghost.
Speaker A:I'm gonna tackle it.
Speaker B:Of course, it's.
Speaker A:He does A good.
Speaker A:Was it Robin?
Speaker A:He did too.
Speaker B:Robin.
Speaker B:I think so, yeah.
Speaker A:Robin.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker B:But, yeah, that was Blaze and Stone.
Speaker B:So they are actually a.
Speaker B:They're a Swedish band.
Speaker C:Oh.
Speaker B:They said that the.
Speaker B:It started as a solo project.
Speaker B:This guy, Cedric Forsberg.
Speaker B:It.
Speaker B:Actually, I was not.
Speaker B:I was pretty much.
Speaker B:I was very close in my earlier description.
Speaker B:It isn't.
Speaker B:It was intended to be a studio act formed to celebrate and continue the legacy of Running Wild.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker B: It stopped in: Speaker B:So, yeah, I don't have much else.
Speaker B:The fun fact is that this band named Blazingstone is actually specifically Running Wild single sixth album.
Speaker B:So they did that.
Speaker B:So Running Wild is kind of.
Speaker B:I guess nobody talks about it.
Speaker B:It's kind of a really, like power metal, speed metal.
Speaker B:But as you can see from the art, they.
Speaker B:You can almost say they were.
Speaker B:Running Wild was the original pirate metal band because the original.
Speaker A:How old.
Speaker A:How old are they?
Speaker B:Running Wilds from.
Speaker B:From the 80s.
Speaker C:Oh, what?
Speaker B:Yeah, Running Wild's like.
Speaker A:It's a blazing.
Speaker A: While this one's: Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker B: an heavy metal band formed in: Speaker C:Holy.
Speaker B:But they had kind of pirate imagery.
Speaker A:Oh, yeah.
Speaker B:Speed metal, heavy metal, a lot of pirate stuff.
Speaker B:So, like, not, you know, as Alestorm went and really went with the theme and the gimmick.
Speaker C:The.
Speaker B:They used a lot of the imagery.
Speaker A:In the lyrics from the.
Speaker A:From.
Speaker A:From these guys.
Speaker B:Yeah, and these guys were.
Speaker B:There was a.
Speaker B:There was a song, a Hailstorm song, when they were.
Speaker B:And one of their lyrics was like, I forgot the song.
Speaker B:See, I should have been ready for that.
Speaker B:Actually, there's a thing where they reference them.
Speaker B:They're like, kind of like running wild in 19.
Speaker A:Oh, nice, nice.
Speaker B:So, like, it's there.
Speaker B:I mean, look at the.
Speaker B:The costumes.
Speaker A:Yeah, they weren't singing, but.
Speaker A:But it's less.
Speaker A:It seems a little.
Speaker B:It's like.
Speaker A:It seems a little less cheesy, a little more like they, like, serious.
Speaker B:They play.
Speaker B:Yeah, they played like.
Speaker B:Like, I'll play a song after.
Speaker A:Yeah, we'll play.
Speaker A:No, no, we'll play Running Wild next, I think.
Speaker B:And I was thinking about the song Conquistadors.
Speaker B:There is.
Speaker B:But, I mean, there's.
Speaker A:So are they.
Speaker A:Were they more serious?
Speaker A:Because I know Ale Storm is kind of just fun.
Speaker B:They get.
Speaker B:They're kind of more like party metal a bit now.
Speaker A:Ale Storm.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:But were they serious before?
Speaker B:Alestorm was a little.
Speaker B:They were a bit more like a more serious, like, power metal band at the start okay.
Speaker B:Like, still little, you know, fantasy and that.
Speaker B:But, like, the first couple albums were, like, fairly serious and, like, the pirate theme, I guess.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker A:Because most of pirate stuff is always cheesy, Right?
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:And maybe Jack Sparrow is the reason for that.
Speaker B:Yeah, he's.
Speaker A:You know, like, it really just get, like.
Speaker A:It took it over the top where pirates, you know, sort of like Penny.
Speaker A:Pennywise made clowns scary.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:They used to be fun.
Speaker A:It's like now.
Speaker A:I don't know.
Speaker A:How about that?
Speaker B:I mean, Tim Curry.
Speaker B:Tim Curry originally made it pretty scary because.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:Like, were clowns fun?
Speaker B:Not really.
Speaker B:And then Tim Curry's like, well, they're definitely not anymore.
Speaker B:I'm not gonna sleep again anymore.
Speaker B:But, yeah.
Speaker B:So if we wanted to listen to this band, I think Conquistadors is a song that'd be pretty interesting.
Speaker B:I haven't listened to in a long time, but there is one called under the Jolly Roger.
Speaker B:It's a bit more anthemic.
Speaker B:If you wanted more of that kind.
Speaker A:Of song, I think I can.
Speaker A:Conquistador.
Speaker A:Conquistador.
Speaker B:Conquistador.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:Or Conquistador.
Speaker A:I'm not a librarian, I'm a podcaster.
Speaker B:I'm not a librarian, but I'm a libationist.
Speaker A:Libationist.
Speaker A:All right, let's try this.
Speaker A:Conquistador by Running Wild.
Speaker C:Sam.
Speaker C:Falling disease to conquer new lands Terrain by the dust sacrifice the best is out Containers are they fight who they kill they rain under the banner of the holy.
Speaker C:Days Darkest the doors it just.
Speaker C:Violence cross and deceit taking the web on the Indian staff We are feeding the greed in the masters of Christianity See I believe or doubt I don't get to find the reason why.
Speaker A:It.
Speaker C:Sa.
Speaker C:Oh, good.
Speaker B:So those are the convenge.
Speaker A:That was good.
Speaker A:I actually quite enjoyed that.
Speaker A:It was.
Speaker A:I mean, we talked through the whole song.
Speaker A:I guess we should have recorded our commentary, but.
Speaker A:Yeah, I quite like that.
Speaker A:It was good.
Speaker B:Yeah, it was fast, you know, got some, you know, guitar, still some energy.
Speaker B:It's just good speed metal, I think.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:Just easy to.
Speaker B:It's like, easy to listen to for me.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:Like, it's a classic type of sound.
Speaker A:Yeah, I totally enjoy.
Speaker A:Enjoyed that.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:I was like, okay, how am I going to counter that?
Speaker B:So you're always just.
Speaker B:We're on the same side, man.

Speaker A:No, we're not.
Speaker A:I hope you die.

Speaker A:That.
Speaker B:That show.
Speaker B:I think they just.

Speaker A:The people are alive.
Speaker C:All this world is.
Speaker C:These people are.
Speaker B:That was.
Speaker B:You know what?
Speaker B:There used to be a time at work when where this type of thoughts were just happening.
Speaker B:So I'm glad that heavy metal is a safe space for these types of thoughts.
Speaker B:And there's a lot of people out there that don't understand that.
Speaker B:Like, that sounds angry.
Speaker B:Why do you want to listen to angry?
Speaker B:So I can get it out of my system.
Speaker A:You know what I have to say to your boss, because I don't have.
Speaker B:To say it to my boss because then I'm also gonna start strangling them.
Speaker A:This is what you say to your boss?
Speaker A:I'm a big fucking guy.
Speaker B:That's fair.
Speaker B:All right, so I.
Speaker B:You know, I know that we sometimes have our little turn.
Speaker B:This is our little fun, but I have some serious business for us now.
Speaker B:Here's.
Speaker B:Here's my proposal because I've been looking up the info for this band and there's.
Speaker B:There's a bit to digest, a little bit.
Speaker A:Oh, you looked up the info for this particular.
Speaker A:No, no, for the next band.
Speaker B:Okay, but how about.
Speaker B:Tell us.
Speaker A:Okay, well, tell us about this band.
Speaker A:So they're a Swiss metal band from Zurich.
Speaker A:Consists of vocalist Mark Zelli, Zellweger guitarist Yannick Lehman, bassist Tommy Lee, and drummer Luigi Paravanti.
Speaker A:They've released three studio albums, three EPs, and their latest being Cursed and Wilted, releasing through Blood Blast Distribution.
Speaker A:I don't really have much more to say other than that, but they are.
Speaker B:That's pretty kick ass, honestly.
Speaker A:Metal Hammer's been talking about them, which is good.
Speaker A:They've played Resurrection, Resurrection Fest, and Sick New World festivals.
Speaker A:They did play during their US Tour.
Speaker A:They replaced the opening act with an extreme wrestling match refereed by Mark Zellweger.
Speaker A:In an interview with Metalhammer, Mark stated that the band performs every show at the limit.
Speaker A:Something that the crowd definitely feels nice.
Speaker B:I mean, that's appreciated.
Speaker B:And based on this recording, it's good.
Speaker A:Like, I like this, like.
Speaker B:Like, there was that part where he.
Speaker B:It sounded like he, like, thought maybe the recording wasn't on.
Speaker B:He's like.
Speaker B:Like.
Speaker B:He's like, yeah, this guy sounds pissed off.
Speaker A:Yeah, that's.
Speaker B:That's the passion is there.
Speaker B:Okay.
Speaker A:But look at the COVID Yeah, the COVID is so.
Speaker A:It's a bunch of flowers.
Speaker B:It's like a paint and like an old painting of flowers.
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:I love it.
Speaker B:I love that.
Speaker B:That's.
Speaker A:That's good imagery.
Speaker A:Like, did they have a video for this?
Speaker B:Because then, you know what?
Speaker B:People might be looking at it.
Speaker A:Oh, no, there was a video.
Speaker A:We should have watched the video.
Speaker A:That's okay.
Speaker A:We'll watch it later.
Speaker A:All right.
Speaker A:What are you going to bring to the table, sir?
Speaker B:There's a bit too well not to discuss, but there's some details we'll just have to, like.
Speaker B:Just.
Speaker B:It's just.
Speaker B:It's just kind of funny.
Speaker B:But I think we'll just listen to it first, and then I'll tell you instead of.
Speaker B:You know.
Speaker B:So I'm gonna.
Speaker B:I'm gonna tell you the name of the band, and I would love it if you just do your best spelling, and there's no judgment.
Speaker A:Do my best spelling?

Speaker A:It was so theatrical.
Speaker B:I feel like this was like.
Speaker B:If you like King diamond had a baby.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:In a ritual.
Speaker B:And it was like.
Speaker B:It is a child of prophecy.
Speaker A:Oh no.
Speaker B:The blanking God.
Speaker B:It was just something.
Speaker B:Something very interesting.
Speaker B:So how shall I tell you all about.

Speaker A:That was.
Speaker C:That.
Speaker A:That was so good.
Speaker A:I really, really enjoyed that.
Speaker B: ntly this band was founded in: Speaker B:They were under the name Crestfallen, but it took them four years to find they.
Speaker B:It took them four years to find the vocalist they wanted.
Speaker A:Holy shit.
Speaker B:Which was a guy from their home.
Speaker B:Their home province of Quebec.
Speaker B:What Canadian band really, that matched the vision and sound of the album they had written, but shelved away for long, long time in the archives.
Speaker A:So they.
Speaker B:I'm gonna.
Speaker B:There's a little blurb.
Speaker B:I'm on their site.
Speaker B:I'm gonna do a blurb of what they've put to describe themselves.
Speaker B:Blending the slow crushing tempos and theatrics of epic doom metal.
Speaker B:The faster tempos, soaring vocals and shredding guitars of US style power metal as well as the darker aspects of black metal.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:Exul's atypical sound stands alone.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:They.
Speaker B:There's some bands they reference.
Speaker B:But apparently also according to the Perpetual Plains lore and mythology that ties the lyrics of the bands Thelist, Atramentis and Zycraidus, there's apparently.
Speaker B:Yes.
Speaker B:Thank you.
Speaker B:It's a hay fever.
Speaker B:They.
Speaker B:They are sharing a lore with a bunch of like smaller bands.
Speaker C:What?
Speaker C:What?
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:So the thing I wanted.
Speaker A:Kind of crazy.
Speaker A:It's like a shared universe.
Speaker B:The thing I wanted to get to was.
Speaker B:Would you like to meet the band?
Speaker B:Because we have a Lost Horizon situation going on here.
Speaker A:What?
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker B:Got something for me there?
Speaker A:Oh, yeah.
Speaker C:Oh yeah.
Speaker B:Like fumbling there.
Speaker B:Whatever you want.
Speaker A:Get you a good one here.
Speaker A:Oh, wait, the same one.
Speaker A:Ah, this is good.
Speaker B:Yeah, that's.
Speaker A:Stella's always nice.
Speaker B:All right, so you remember the Lost Horizon situation where they had.
Speaker B:They had some colorful names, characters.
Speaker A:Yes, yes.
Speaker A:We're not.
Speaker B:We're not far off.
Speaker C:Off.
Speaker B:We're gonna start with a singer.
Speaker B:Stargazer.
Speaker B:Chance of Foretold Doom.
Speaker B:The voice that carries the tales of the perpetual planes across the void.
Speaker B:We go to Defender.
Speaker B:Seven Stringed Blood Steel Hymns.
Speaker B:Founder and architect of Exhul sonic vision.
Speaker A:I heard a bunch of Atari sound effects there all of a sudden.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:Just like.
Speaker C:What is that?
Speaker B:Why does the ship look like that?
Speaker B:Endorsed by EMG Ernie Ball and in tune GP I don't know.
Speaker B:That's weird thing to add anyway Sentinel Five Stringed Chaos Magics One Word Weaving Low End Thunderous Foundations Beneath the Towering Rifts Ethereal Hammer is the oh, I gotta see what these guys the Percussive Force driving Doom Laden Hymns and Specter Multi multi timbrel Spectral oscillations Crafting ethereal atmospheres and haunting keyboard landscapes they also have a musical lineage says fans of these bands would likely be interested in hearing Existence an interesting it's like them probably saying bands that they like so, so there's bands like I think I don't know if any of these you've heard of There's Veni, Domine, Hexen House, Memento Mori, Skuld, Morgana Skull.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker A:Morgana Lafay.
Speaker B:Yeah and then there's some bands that are more well known Crimson Glory, Manowar, Candlemass, oh, Solitude, Eternus and one that I.
Speaker A:That's who they're inspired by says people.
Speaker B:Who like these bands might like the Our band kind of thing which means they might.
Speaker A:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker B:They're obviously influenced or enjoy and then there's one more that I might I just want to ask you if you've heard of them.
Speaker B:I feel like you have but it's one that I realize I haven't played yet that I might after your choice, play Fates Warning.
Speaker A:I know, I don't really know Fate's Warning.
Speaker A:I think I know one song.
Speaker A:I'm trying to remember what that song is now.
Speaker A:Okay, okay.
Speaker A:That, that, that'd be worth playing now.
Speaker A:But I mean I'm gonna be like.
Speaker A:So I've already just, I just saved this now.
Speaker A:Exul Live at the Hard Luck in Toronto.
Speaker A:I, I, I think I need to watch them perform.
Speaker A:This is one of those bands that.
Speaker B:You need to see it.
Speaker A:You need to see.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:And I don't know if there's going to be a bunch of theatrics or not, but I don't think it matters.
Speaker A:It's one of those bands you just watch.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:Their, their performance has got to be off the charts.
Speaker A:I, I would assume it was pretty like.
Speaker B:And that was, that's how like that was.
Speaker B:I was so happy to run into this.
Speaker B:Like I was when I heard this I was like sure.
Speaker B:And then I was like well after the song I was like well I'm, I'm just gonna keep listening because I think what was, you know, what also helped at that point that particular week I was on a real I was on a real King Diamond Kick.
Speaker A:Oh, yeah.
Speaker B:Okay.
Speaker B:And then this showed up, and I was like, oh, I'll listen to this.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:And I was like, oh, this was the perfect time for this.
Speaker A:You might have just changed my song selection.
Speaker A:Next.
Speaker C:Ooh.
Speaker B:Returning to the classics.
Speaker A:Just because the.
Speaker A:The imagery.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:So we did one.
Speaker B:What did we do before?
Speaker B:I'm gonna look.
Speaker B:Yeah, whatever.
Speaker A:I might have to.
Speaker B:Yeah, we just watched the hall of the Mountain King video.
Speaker B:That's what we watched.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:What, for this band?
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:You do.
Speaker A:You just watched.
Speaker B:No, no, we watched this on the show.
Speaker A:Yeah, we watched it before.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker B:So, yeah, just for the imagery.
Speaker B:Right.
Speaker A:I've been listening to this a lot lately.
Speaker A:I did something very, very strange.
Speaker A:I know now that Georgia has enabled us to go home after work.
Speaker B:She's opened the door, and I don't know if I should be happy or not, because it's.
Speaker B:It's ruined.
Speaker B:Like, I got.
Speaker B:I think I got used to being institutionalized.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:Like.
Speaker B:And, like, what do I do with myself?
Speaker B:I'm just.
Speaker A:Now you make me want to play Suicidal Tendency.
Speaker A:Tendencies.
Speaker B:Well, I mean, people say, like, I just go home and stare at four walls.
Speaker B:I'm like, well, I do that, but I just also listen to heavy metal, so that's an improvement.
Speaker A:I don't know if I want to play.
Speaker C:Fuck.
Speaker A:I don't know.
Speaker A:Do I want to play one of these?
Speaker A:No.
Speaker A:You know, I'm gonna go off this album.
Speaker A:So I. I plugged in my ipod.
Speaker A:I have an ipod, and I plugged it into my bike.
Speaker A:So what happens is, as I'm spinning, it'll generate enough power to power the ipod.
Speaker A:And I've got these speakers I put on my front mudguard.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:And it blares forward.
Speaker B:So, like, it, like, makes you aerodynamics.
Speaker B:The sound waves blast the air out of the scientists listening.
Speaker B:Don't comment, please.
Speaker B:I don't.
Speaker B:I don't want to hear it now.
Speaker A:I've been so.
Speaker A:I was, like, kind of curious because I'm like, okay, who the fuck is this band and whose name I haven't given yet?
Speaker A:I'm trying to find the song that I heard.
Speaker A:I thought it was off.
Speaker A:Maybe it's on here.
Speaker A:I'm trying to.
Speaker B:It's like you're trying to remember if that word shows up in it.
Speaker B:This is my life with this.
Speaker B:With this podcast, you know, this where I'm like, oh, I heard a great song.
Speaker B:I heard a great song that I need to save for this.
Speaker B:And you know what I do?
Speaker B:I Save the band.
Speaker B:And I said, I'll remember the song.
Speaker B:And then I'm like, the day comes, and I'm like.
Speaker B:I am panicking because I. I want to pick the right one.
Speaker A:What is it called?
Speaker A:Now?
Speaker A:I think I'm just gonna go with the.
Speaker A:The theme.
Speaker A:So th.
Speaker A:This.
Speaker A:This band, everyone has heard, many of you have seen it.
Speaker A:This is one of the top touring every year in the top 10.
Speaker A:They're in the top 10.
Speaker A:And they only perform seasonally.
Speaker A:They only perform in the winter.
Speaker A:Even though they only perform in the winter with limited number of dates, their box office gross rivals all the big names.
Speaker A:And this was the band they started out as.
Speaker A:I will reveal who that is after if you remind me.
Speaker A:Otherwise, I'll forget.
Speaker B:Okay, I'm gonna remind you.
Speaker A:Okay, hang on.
Speaker A:I'm gonna go with this one.
Speaker A:This is a song I like.
Speaker B:There's a lot of indecisiveness, but I like that it means that that's.
Speaker B:It means that that last song.
Speaker B:I think the medical term is that last song kind of fucked you up.
Speaker A:It did.
Speaker A:It totally fucked me up.
Speaker A:Like, I can't stop thinking about it.
Speaker C:It.
Speaker A:Okay, here we go.
Speaker C:No, I want this.
Speaker A:I'm not going to say who the band is.
Speaker A:But listen, the vocals reminded me of the last band we heard in.
Speaker A:In a lot of ways.
Speaker A:Not in exactly the style.
Speaker A:Yeah, sorry.
Speaker A:In the style.
Speaker A:But not the same singing way.
Speaker A:The way.
Speaker A:Anyway, whatever.
Speaker A:Take a listen.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker C:Behind the wheel just went.
Speaker C:Up here in the second.
Speaker C:The night no end inside I think I'm going inside.
Speaker C:Witches grind I can do it now.
Speaker C:24 Hours go yeah.
Speaker C:Got to escape can't take it.
Speaker C:I got my suitcase and kicked out the door yeah.
Speaker C:I've got bloodshot eyes Hyp to fail no.
Speaker C:When it's kind I can do it 9R the fast forget the past One burning trail in my head I am 24 hours up.
Speaker C:Behind me I'm moving fast Forget the past One burning trend in my head I am oh, yeah.
Speaker C:Sam.
Speaker C:Sa.
Speaker C:Sam.
Speaker A:I apologize.
Speaker B:You know, sometimes Testament just sneaks up on you.
Speaker A:It's like Testify.
Speaker B:Just like you left the window open.
Speaker B:They're just like practice what you preach oh, damn.
Speaker B:How did Chuck Billy get in here?
Speaker A:So that was Sabotage.
Speaker B:Sabotage, which I believe is the translation of sexy savage.
Speaker B:Sexy savage in French.
Speaker A:So listening to my ipod on my pedal bike has been revolutionary because I got two albums of Sabotage on my ipod, and as it's randomly going through songs, I got tool in there.
Speaker A:I've got.
Speaker A:I don't even want to say the other one.
Speaker A:I'm kind of embarrassed about the other ones that are on there.
Speaker B:Sabrina Carpenter.
Speaker A:No, no, no, no.
Speaker A:It's my old ipod, so.
Speaker A:Sabrina Carpenter probably wasn't even born, you know, back then.
Speaker B:We have to.
Speaker B:We have to be vulnerable with each other sometimes.
Speaker B:If you admit something, something that you.
Speaker B:I'll.
Speaker A:I'll.
Speaker B:I'll try to dig deep.
Speaker A:Okay, fine.
Speaker A:I will play.
Speaker B:We can all.
Speaker B:We can all admit that we have.
Speaker A:I will play a snippet.
Speaker B:Okay.
Speaker A:Where's the album?
Speaker A:I actually own this album.
Speaker A:It's.
Speaker A:It's up over there on the wall.
Speaker A:See the things you make me do.
Speaker B:I'm just.
Speaker B:I'm.
Speaker B:You didn't have to.
Speaker B:But glad you did because we.
Speaker B:Heavy metal is an open community.
Speaker A:Are you ready for this?
Speaker B:I'm ready.
Speaker A:This is the guilt.
Speaker A:A guilty pleasure.
Speaker A:Guilty pleasure.
Speaker B:Is that.
Speaker A:Is that right?
Speaker A:Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker B:There's nothing wrong with that.
Speaker A:All right.
Speaker A:Do you see it on the screen?
Speaker A:So you can actually put it in.
Speaker A:We're not going to listen to the whole song.
Speaker A:This is one of the things that popped up.
Speaker A:I'm going to play this.
Speaker A:I'm going to play the other one.
Speaker A:Because we're, you know, in metal shop, you know, metal comes from many different areas.
Speaker A:It comes from grommets, it comes from lead.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:A little bit of plastic every once in a while.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker A:So this is one of the songs that was that played.
Speaker A:So this song played 24 hours ago by Sabotage from Hall of the Mountain King album, and then it played this one right after.
Speaker A:This is just the basic.
Speaker A:This is not the best.
Speaker A:Everybody knows that the trouble starts when you talk all about the rest.
Speaker A:First you went to college and then you got yourself degrees.
Speaker C:Then you got some pretty girls to get down on the ground.
Speaker A:You took yourself some pictures and you showed them to your friends.
Speaker C:Now you're going straight to hell.
Speaker C:And that's where your story.
Speaker A:You, Rick James, you.
Speaker A:That's what this song is about.
Speaker B:Just telling.
Speaker A:It's a you to Rick James for all the.
Speaker A:You pulled.
Speaker B:Cuz he.
Speaker B:Yeah, he pulled.
Speaker B:He pulled some.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:Pulled some.
Speaker A:You, Rick James.
Speaker B:Sure.
Speaker B:You know I like it.
Speaker B:You know what?
Speaker B:Because you know, for, like, there's nothing wrong, like, you know, we like to.
Speaker B:You know, we're on a heavy metal podcast.
Speaker B:But here's the thing.
Speaker B:We're the first to admit that, like, we don't.
Speaker B:Not every.
Speaker B:Like, we don't just exclusively like heavy metal.
Speaker A:Oh, no, of course not.
Speaker B:Hey, that's poppy.
Speaker B:You're like, well, have you heard Glory Hammer?
Speaker B:Like, come on, baby.
Speaker B:I love.
Speaker B:You know, this was good.
Speaker B:I actually really, like, liked, you know, for like, you know, there's.
Speaker B:There are those, like, you know, three chord acoustic type of musicians.
Speaker B:We'll say there's those songs maybe songs not where they kind of do that, but I'm like, I like that.
Speaker B:This one had been.
Speaker B:You know, it's the guitar.
Speaker A:He had a song in, I think threesome, the movie threesome with one of the Baldwin brothers.
Speaker A:Okay, so this is the other song.
Speaker B:Okay,.
Speaker A:I think this.
Speaker A:Which one is it?
Speaker A:I think it's this one.
Speaker A:Yeah, this is it.
Speaker A:Do you know this one he's playing in October,.
Speaker C:By the way.
Speaker A:He's playing every single instrument on this.
Speaker B:Song at the same time.
Speaker B:Still.
Speaker B:Still impress.
Speaker A:Okay, you know what?
Speaker B:You know what I liked?
Speaker B:I really like the vocals there.
Speaker B:Like, I was actually imagining.
Speaker B:Because you jumped in there and did that.
Speaker B:Imagine you did that.
Speaker B:And then I was imagining the buildup to this next one.
Speaker B:I'm almost wondering what, like the next note he hit.
Speaker B:If it was like.
Speaker B:Imagine if it was like a.
Speaker B:A Queen style.
Speaker B:Like.
Speaker A:Well, he does.
Speaker A:That's.
Speaker A:That's what happens next with.
Speaker B:With the layers.
Speaker A:Ah, okay.
Speaker A:Okay, I'll keep going.
Speaker C:Die no sorrow.
Speaker C:Dead Kites.
Speaker A:He's playing in Gimley on October 25th.
Speaker B:Oh, man.
Speaker A:You know, and no one wants to go with me.
Speaker A:Well, my wife might go with me.
Speaker A:Wait, I'm not married in this alternate universe.
Speaker B:Cut.
Speaker A:No cut.
Speaker A:25Th.
Speaker B:25Th is a Sunday.
Speaker A:I think it's the 25th.
Speaker B:The next five minutes of podcast was just them.
Speaker A:Make it play, make a plans.
Speaker A:Wait, so he is so Huxley Worksman.
Speaker A:I know.
Speaker A:Okay, those of you that have turned everything off at the moment, I apologize.
Speaker B:It's okay.
Speaker A:But bear with me.
Speaker A:He is a multi instrumentalist.
Speaker A:I believe on his albums he plays all the instruments.
Speaker A:One.
Speaker A:He plays live.
Speaker A:He tends to.
Speaker A:He rotates around the stage and he goes from instrument to instrument and what the.
Speaker A:The time he had played previously is on the.
Speaker A:October 25th, officially at the ship and Plot, which I've always wanted to eat at.
Speaker A:Oh, he's also playing at the park theater on the 24th.
Speaker A:The Park Theater.
Speaker A:That's better than Gimli.
Speaker A:And 24th is a Saturday then, right?
Speaker B:24Th would be.
Speaker A:Yeah, okay, we're going.
Speaker A:Okay, I'm going.
Speaker A:Anyway, the last.
Speaker A:When he played here off of this album, my understanding I did.
Speaker A:I missed the show.
Speaker A:I regret it every time you'd move from instrument to Instrument.
Speaker A:He would take off another piece of clothing, and he had layers and layers and layers of clothing on him.
Speaker B:Like.
Speaker C:I don't know.
Speaker C:He.
Speaker B:He's even better.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:So the 25th.
Speaker A:So wait, 25th?
Speaker A:No, 24th in Winnipeg.
Speaker A:The Park Theater.
Speaker A:I mean, that's two minutes away.
Speaker B:Yeah, that's.
Speaker B:That's pretty close.
Speaker B:We could die.
Speaker B:You never know.
Speaker B:Karen might even go, you know, this guy might be a pretty good show.
Speaker A:Here.
Speaker A:Just quickly, here's another bit of.
Speaker A:Wait, did we save the other one?
Speaker A:I don't know if I added it to the playlist or not.
Speaker C:You ain't been sexing, kitten but now you're screaming your bare feet dancing crazy.
Speaker A:In shades of wine glasses the picture's.
Speaker C:Blurry blue what the hell's got into you, Tarantula?
Speaker A:Oh, my God.
Speaker A:There's something metal about him that I like.
Speaker A:A little bit of Freddy.
Speaker B:You know what I think what it.
Speaker A:Is a little bit of Halford.
Speaker B:I think maybe it's something that.
Speaker B:Maybe.
Speaker B:Is it unpopular opinion?
Speaker B:Hot take?
Speaker B:I don't know.
Speaker B:Maybe not.
Speaker B:Something metal's lost about, like, people, like, it's kind of metal.
Speaker B:It's kind of metal.
Speaker B:And you're like, guys, guys, you forgot where metal came from.
Speaker B:This is just rock.
Speaker B:Metal came from rock.
Speaker A:It came from rock.
Speaker B:And you know what?
Speaker B:It's easy.
Speaker B:It's an easy.
Speaker B:It's an easy generalization.
Speaker B:Doesn't mean, you know, you say, oh, this guy's just.
Speaker B:Just rock doesn't.
Speaker B:It's not a bad thing.
Speaker B:They say, like, I just.
Speaker B:Just call me rock.
Speaker B:Because rock covers, it's so big.
Speaker B:Metals become big.
Speaker B:Yes, but it's also big within the metal sound.
Speaker B:Like.
Speaker B:Yes, that is the electric.
Speaker B:You know, the.
Speaker B:The tuning of the electric guitar.
Speaker B:The heavy mute sounding.
Speaker B:Is that rock?
Speaker B:It's a bit bigger because it doesn't have to be overly electric.
Speaker B:You know, it doesn't have to be overly.
Speaker B:You know, it could be folky, it can be acoustic, it can be lighter, it can be softer, it can be heavier.
Speaker B:There's some bands where I listen to it and I'm like, well, that song was metal as.
Speaker B:And they're like, yeah, don't call me metal bad.
Speaker B:And I'm like, apparently you can play it, but all right, I know, right?
Speaker A:There's this.
Speaker B:To our.
Speaker B:We apologize for the racial insin of that.
Speaker B:Of that last.
Speaker A:Yes, I apologize.
Speaker B:I don't think.
Speaker A:I don't know if I'm curious now.
Speaker A:Like, we have.
Speaker A:We have some.
Speaker A:Some regular listeners, and in fact, I think our Listener base, we're at 1.2 million now.
Speaker A:I think 12.4 billion compared to the Sean Seatgeek and Fast Fred, which is.
Speaker A:Which is at 1.2 people.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:So, you know, we outdo them like crazy.
Speaker A:It's nuts.
Speaker B:Daily basis.
Speaker A:It's embarrassing.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:Like, they're like.
Speaker A:They should just shut their show down.
Speaker A:They should be done with it.
Speaker B:They should just get a new job.
Speaker C:Job.
Speaker A:Get a new job.
Speaker B:It's not related to their job, but they should just get a new job.
Speaker A:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker A:Go into accounting or something.
Speaker A:But I'm wondering if Antony.
Speaker A:I'm wondering if the mighty K, which we.
Speaker A:She said she want to call herself something different on this show.
Speaker A:She doesn't want to be related to In Obscura.
Speaker A:She's embarrassed of her appearances on the In Obscuria podcast because it's an AI podcast.
Speaker B:Do you want me to.
Speaker B:Do you want me to ask her?
Speaker B:I know she likes to.
Speaker A:You should ask her.
Speaker A:Ask her.
Speaker A:Just chatter right now.
Speaker B:Pre recorded.
Speaker A:She might still be.
Speaker A:She might still be awake.
Speaker A:I'm not sure.
Speaker A:She gets up early.
Speaker A:She gets up at 5.
Speaker A:But I'm wondering if.
Speaker A:If K and Anthony would like Huxley Worksman.
Speaker A:Is this.
Speaker A:Is this outside?
Speaker A:Like, you know, I don't know anyway, but I have a song.
Speaker A:I haven't played my song yet.
Speaker A:I played a bunch of, like, teasing stuff, but I want to play Bloodstained.
Speaker A:I am Death.
Speaker A:And I'm playing it right now.
Speaker B:Okay, let me.
Speaker B:Hold on.
Speaker B:Let me get my calculator.
Speaker A:Your calculator?
Speaker A:What.
Speaker B:What is it called?
Speaker A:Bloodstained Blood stain.
Speaker A:I am death.
Speaker B:I mean, I'll give metal.
Speaker B:I'll give metal.
Speaker B:That one thing where, like, you hear the name of a song or the name of a band.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:And you know the genre right away.
Speaker A:Oh, yeah.
Speaker A:Right away.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker B:What's your blood stain?
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:Okay, here's here.
Speaker A:We.
Speaker C:Sam.
Speaker C:Sa.
Speaker C:Let them be taking lives.
Speaker C:The people lives in fear, suffering.
Speaker C:The end is plagued.
Speaker C:The end himself appears, traveling to Rabbit's field to find the holy land.
Speaker C:He is here to take you and grabs you by the hand through all the years.
Speaker C:You always thought you had it made.
Speaker C:Now you feel the emptiness as life begins to fade.
Speaker C:He will feel you when you'll become a slave.

Speaker A:She contributed to the opening ending theme of the anime.
Speaker A:Oh, Google guys.
Speaker A:Gunmo.
Speaker A:Oh.
Speaker A:Oh, poor girl.
Speaker A:Oh, man.
Speaker A:She died.
Speaker A:Cervical cancer.
Speaker B:Yeah.

Speaker A:I love the music.
Speaker A:Watch what I do right here.
Speaker A:Watch this.
Speaker A:I just.
Speaker C:Ding.
Speaker B:There we go.
Speaker A:Okay, so that made me think of something else.
Speaker A:But what do you have to say about this?
Speaker A:About her?
Speaker B:I don't know too much.
Speaker B:I just know the song and the story is kind of sad, but,.
Speaker A:You.
Speaker B:Know, just some easily listening pretty.
Speaker B:Pretty catchy music, honestly.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker A:One of the best vocal performances of all time.
Speaker C:You're ready?
Speaker A:Here we go.
Speaker A:Are you familiar with this?
Speaker A:This is for Kevin Brown.
Speaker C:I'll go anywhere with you Just wrap me up in chains.
Speaker C:But if you try to go all alone.
Speaker C:Don't think I'll understand.
Speaker C:At this day.
Speaker C:Stay with me, with me, Stay with me.
Speaker C:In the silence of your room in the darkness of your dreams?
Speaker C:You must only think of me.
Speaker C:There can be nothing between.
Speaker C:When your bride is on the floor I'll make you beg for mine.
Speaker C:Stay with me, Stay with me.
Speaker C:You'd better hope and pray that you make it safe.
Speaker C:Back to your own world.
Speaker C:You better hope and pray that you'll wake one day in your own world.
Speaker C:Cause when you sleep at night they don't hear your cries.
Speaker C:In your own world.
Speaker C:Only time will tell if you can break the spell Held back in your own world.
Speaker A:Wait, wait, wait.
Speaker A:Here comes.
Speaker C:Don't stay with me, Stay with me, Stay with me.
Speaker A:I think based on the theatricality of some of the last songs we heard, somehow the song you picked, the Mickey Matsubaro Matsubara Sorry song.
Speaker A:And this song, it had that same flair.
Speaker B:It did.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:I like that at one point where she's singing it like I interpreted that flashily dressed goth woman that showed up with Satan or the angel of Death.
Speaker A:Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker B:So I was like, pretty cool.
Speaker B:Like, yeah, the vocals are pretty nuts like that.
Speaker A:Oh, isn't that nuts?
Speaker A:Like, that's just, like, amazing.
Speaker B:Yeah, that was good.
Speaker B:That was great.
Speaker A:So one of those singers, and I'm never really sure which one is which, her name is Siobhan Fahey, former member of Bananarama, underused in Banana Rama.
Speaker A:Based on this.
Speaker A:I. I own this album.
Speaker A:Fucking Wicked.
Speaker A:The vocals, the two vocalists sparring off each other.
Speaker A:It is phenomenal stuff.
Speaker A:You know what?
Speaker A:Maybe it may be a pop song, but it's not very pop.
Speaker A:There's underlying goth elements.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:The way the vocals present is kind of metal.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:Oh, yeah.
Speaker A:A metal in.
Speaker A:In the theatricality of it.
Speaker A:I don't know.
Speaker A:I. I love this thing.
Speaker A:So, okay, we gotta.
Speaker A:We gotta call it quits.
Speaker A:We've been going for how long?
Speaker A:I don't know.
Speaker A:A very long time.
Speaker B:Yeah, we do.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker A:Let's see.
Speaker A:One hour and 57 minutes.
Speaker A:You want to sign us off with something?
Speaker B:Sure.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B: In the year: Speaker B:It's all of them.
Speaker A:Oh, wait, we were supposed to.
Speaker A:We were supposed to talk with some Sabotage.
Speaker A:Okay, back to the Sabotage reference.
Speaker A:Okay, wait.
Speaker A:We gotta.
Speaker A:We gotta explain who Sabotage is.
Speaker A:Okay, so Sabotage later did a one off thing.
Speaker A:A.
Speaker A:An off thing where they decided to become the Trans Siberian Orchestra.
Speaker B:Yes.
Speaker A:They did it as a seasonal thing.
Speaker A:We're gonna try this out.
Speaker A:I don't think there was a lot put into it.
Speaker A:Sort of like, oh, we're just gonna.
Speaker A:They're struggling to make ends meet.
Speaker A:It's hard to be a band.
Speaker A:It's hard to make money.
Speaker A:It's hard to tour.
Speaker A:It's hard to raise the funds to tour.
Speaker A:It's hard to get a label to actually sign off on you and say, hey, we like you.
Speaker A:You're not Bon Jovi.
Speaker A:You're not Van Halen.
Speaker A:Whatever.
Speaker A:So they did the Trans Siberian Orchestra, and it took off way larger, way higher than anything did in a.
Speaker A:Sabotage.
Speaker A:And they've been doing Trans Siberian ever since because it's huge.
Speaker A:It's huge.
Speaker A:It's one of the biggest touring monoliths out there.
Speaker B:Nice.
Speaker A:But that's for Sabotage.
Speaker A:Okay, so you're gonna say,.
Speaker B:Now, I've got a lot of.
Speaker B:I've got a little.
Speaker B:A lot of information.
Speaker B:Okay, hold on.
Speaker B:Let me try that again, because that.
Speaker A:Mustache is tripping you up.
Speaker A:This was.
Speaker B:No, that impression was just.
Speaker B:It was going down dark territory.
Speaker B:He was going into orange territory, let's say.
Speaker A:Yeah, Orange theory.
Speaker B:I don't want it there.
Speaker A:It's not a workout program.
Speaker B:Sabotage went on their tour turning into the Trans Siberian Orchestra.
Speaker B:This impression is really falling apart.
