Happy 2024 everyone. This week we take a look at Jonathan Young's song Wolf Within. This song is not that complex of a song - and in many ways could probably be made better by being longer - but overall has many qualities that show why it deserved to be number 3 on the iTunes list of metal songs during the week it came out, as well as number 8 on Metal Hammer's "The 10 best new metal songs you need to hear right now". We look at this song from its instrumentation, vocals, lyrics and how it relates or doesn't to the bible. So join us this week as we learn more about his song.

Happy New Year, and hopefully you've had a good Christmas as well. We are starting out the year talking about some Christmas music - yes - but that is because we couldn't get to it before the actual Christmas day - and decided that we still liked what was talked about and wanted to still release this. This month we are talking about the band Cloverton and their song A Hallelujah Christmas. We also quickly mention August Burn Red's Up On The Housetop song as well (thankfully it's just an instrumental) since Aaron wanted to actually go after both songs so we decided WHY NOT!
