The Amazing Kamikaze Syndrome - Side A

And so it's the wrap show.And what have we done.Another season over.And a new one to begun....What will Scott make of this eclectic mix of albums? Who will win the right to choose the artist for season six and will Corey's eleventh hour change to the Price is Right rules scupper Kev? But most importantly; has anyone seen my spare car keys? I swear to gods I left them on that table in the keep, just beside where we keep the drawbridge oil, but I can't find them anywhere! Oh well, 48 rooms down, 36 left to go! The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and remember enough muesli!

Well, that's a wrap on the album sides for season five! We've had some high highs and some very low lows for Corey and especially Kev this season, but there are four songs from Slade left to go! Kev proposes Glam Prog, Corey is intrigued, and we dig into the more experimental side of this gloriously camp 70s band! Four-song sides have tended to score reasonably well as long as they have a couple of heavy hitters, so will Kev be on board with ANOTHER car song? Will Corey dig the waltz? And who will win the coveted honour of taking home the season's game? The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and drive 'em round the bend!Songs covered in this episode: "Ready to Explode", "(And Now the Waltz) C'est La Vie", "Cheap 'n' Nasty Luv", "Razzle Dazzle Man"Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UltimateCatalogueClashBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ucatalogueclash.bsky.socialDiscord: https://discord.gg/76F8G8FEX8Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/ultimatecatalogueclash Hosted on Acast.

Our second KoFi member selection covers the Prince of Darkness, Ozzy Osbourne and his killer 1991 record, "No More Tears". Get ready for songs about creepy dudes, hellraisers, zombies, and yo momma! There's pinched harmonics for everyone and lots of love for one of the grandaddies of heavy metal! All thanks to our pal Ruddy Rutherford for sending this one to us! The question is, how much will we love it? Will Kev be into a song about Aston Villa? WilL Corey like ballads closing both sides of a heavy metal album? And will the heads be bitten off any bats?The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and come and sit upon my knee!Songs covered in this episode: "Mr. Tinkertrain", "I Don't Want to Change the World", "Mama, I'm Coming Home", "Desire", "No More Tears", "S.I.N. (also known as "Won't Be Coming Home (S.I.N.)")", "Hellraiser", "Time After Time", "Zombie Stomp", "A.V.H.", "Road to Nowhere"Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UltimateCatalogueClashBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ucatalogueclash.bsky.socialDiscord: https://discord.gg/76F8G8FEX8Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/ultimatecatalogueclash Hosted on Acast.

My oh my. What a wild ride we have in store for you. We all know that it's not Christmas until Noddy Holder screams the fact into your ear, but what else do Slade have in store for us? Kev's pretty sure that Corey only picked 1983 for this season so he could talk about Run Runaway, but will he give it a 10, 10, and 5? Will Kev believe in woman? And what shenanigans does he have planned for this album's game?The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and slam the hammer down!Songs covered in this episode: "Slam the Hammer Down", "In the Doghouse", "Run Runaway", "High and Dry", "My Oh My", "Cocky Rock Boys (Rule O.K.)"Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UltimateCatalogueClashBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ucatalogueclash.bsky.socialDiscord: https://discord.gg/76F8G8FEX8Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/ultimatecatalogueclash Hosted on Acast.

Nine down, one to go! That's right. We've idolized Billy (kinda, sorta) and tucked Rebel Yell neatly into the "finished' box. Side Bs this season have typically not fared as well as Side As, but Billy's only top ten single in the US from this record is on this side! So can album number nine crack the top three records we've covered this season? How is Kev's Star Wars knowledge? And will Corey be on board with a song about prank calling?The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and catch my fall.Songs covered in this episode: "Flesh for Fantasy", "Catch My Fall", "Crank Call", "(Do Not) Stand in the Shadows", "The Dead Next Door"Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UltimateCatalogueClashBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ucatalogueclash.bsky.socialDiscord: https://discord.gg/76F8G8FEX8Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/ultimatecatalogueclash Hosted on Acast.

Get that top lip curled, bleach your locks and prepare yourself for some sneering, swaggering rock n roll. Kev's seen Billy live. Corey hasn't. Thankfully, Mony Mony isn't on this album, so Kev doesn't have to listen to the ridiculous Canadian response to the chorus lyrics! But will Steve Stevens' guitar stylings tickle Kev's fancy? Will the lower-key stuff work for Corey? And what on earth will the game be this week?The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and cry more, more, more!Songs covered in this episode: "Rebel Yell", "Daytime Drama", "Eyes Without a Face", "Blue Highway"Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UltimateCatalogueClashBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ucatalogueclash.bsky.socialDiscord: https://discord.gg/76F8G8FEX8Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/ultimatecatalogueclash Hosted on Acast.

Another album down and only two to go! We wrap up She's So Unusual by covering Side B and talking about an eclectic bunch of songs that don't all land for Corey and Kevin, but they're a little ways apart on a couple of these tracks! What will Kev think of Cyndi going vaudeville? What will Corey make of a two-tone/ska/reggae song? And will Side B be able to match the quality of Side A overall?The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and hope He↑  will understand!Songs covered in this episode: "She Bop", "All Through the Night", "Witness", "He's So Unusual", "Yeah Yeah"Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UltimateCatalogueClashBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ucatalogueclash.bsky.socialDiscord: https://discord.gg/76F8G8FEX8Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/ultimatecatalogueclash Hosted on Acast.

In 1983, two young women emerged from the New York music scene and blazed their way into the popular music. Madonna's self-titled debut went 5 times platinum and this week's album, "She's So Unusual", went 5 times platinum. Madonna went from strength to strength and became a cultural icon, while Cyndi carved out a niche in the alternative music scene with brief daliances with the top ten over the subsequent decades. But, will Corey be as much a fan of this one as Kev was going in? Will the album stack up for Kev under the unforgiving format of the show? And what will this week's game throw up?The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and come over and eat!Songs covered in this episode: "Money Changes Everything", "Girls Just Want to Have Fun", "When You Were Mine", "Time After Time"Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UltimateCatalogueClashBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ucatalogueclash.bsky.socialDiscord: https://discord.gg/76F8G8FEX8Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/ultimatecatalogueclash Hosted on Acast.

Well then, Kev is down in Four-Way-Stop-Burn helping Corey with a quiz, even though he knows Corey could have done it on his own with no problem and just needed an excuse to get Kev out of the keep, across the moat, and across his substantial lands, to hang out with him. After a great few hours raising money for the Weyburn Theatre, we convened to the centre of the CMPU to listen to music, marvel at the sheer scale and depth of Corey's collection of movies, music, and memorabilia and hey, look, we're fifty year old white dudes; of course we're gonna record our conversation and force it onto you lovely people! If you have a few spare dollars that you can part with, the Weyburn Theatre is a fantastic community initiative that's worth backing!

We're back, with our lip gloss, our braids, and our fingerless gloves! We had a bit of a mixed bag on side one, so how is side two gonna pan out? Will there be a huge banger? Will there be a huge clunker? Will Corey lose his shit if the fat lady sings too much again? And Corey throws Kevin a curveball in the Colour By Numbers game, so how will the 4'5" Englishman respond?The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and be more than just kind!Songs covered in this episode: "Church of the Poison Mind", "Miss Me Blind", "Mister Man", "Stormkeeper", "Victims"Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UltimateCatalogueClashBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ucatalogueclash.bsky.socialDiscord: https://discord.gg/76F8G8FEX8Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/ultimatecatalogueclash Hosted on Acast.
