Hello and welcome to a special review podcast on Dopamine Chamber, the 5th and brand new album from Irish post-punk, indie bands Fontaines D.C.Fontaines D.C.'s 2024 album Romance has turned them into the biggest UK guitar band of their generation. They're headlining festivals and, from next summer, stadiums, they have every chance of becoming the 2020's version of Oasis or Arctic Monkey's for young guitar music loving fans. The final thing they need to do to cement that legacy, release another big hitter of an album. Dopamine Chamber is their attempt at doing just that, continuing the alt-rock feel of Romance and making another set of post-punk, industrialised synth heavy rock songs with frontman Grian Chatten's unmistakable vocal charm at the forefront. Is it as good as their previous albums? Will it keep the momentum flowing? Listen in to find out.

It's time for us to have a look at some of the stinkiest music ever made and continue our search for the nadir of the album in Trve. Crvp. Pop!On this episode Steve and Sam take a look at the much maligned 8th studio album from thrash metal legends Megadeth; Risk, released on the 6th of September 1999.Oh Risk, what are you playing at?! Whilst a lot of the thrash bands from the 80's struggled as soon as Nirvana came into the view of the horizon in the 1990's, Megadeth did a decent enough job of staying relevant for a while. 1992's Countdown to Extinction and 1994's Youthanasia were both a success, and whilst 1997's Cryptic Writings didn't fare quite so well in the newly nu metalled up landscape of heavy music, it had a big radio hit, Trust, on it to keep them ticking over. Megadeth saw for themselves just how things were going to be as they played the Ozzfest in 1998 and Woodstock in 1999, getting a chance to witness Korn, Limp Bizkit, System of a Down, Kid Rock, Sevendust, Snot, Coal Chamber, Godsmack and the rest at their peak. So they knew what to do with this information right? Yeah, make a radio friendly hard rock/electro pop mash up that sounded a bit like Savage Garden and Bon Jovi... wait... what...? It flopped, the band left their label, split up a few years later and, were it not for a phoenix like return, this may have been one of the final abiding memories of Megadeth as a band. But, come on, is it that bad really?
