Just when you thought we couldn't talk enough...here we are back for another yap fest this time for episode #62. Hear about our recent trip to Tampa when we went to check out THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, TERROR and FROZEN SOUL at The Ritz. Also for the first time in MOTB history we review a new album that is about to be released and we are beyond stoked about it! We dive in on the brand new debut album from DIEHUMANE featuring RICK HUNOLT (EXODUS) and SAL ABRUSCATO (TYPE O NEGAVTIVE/LIFE OF AGONY) and we can not get of it! New music this week includes snippets from Tampa Heavy Metal heathens MIDNIGHT VICE, more insane Texas Death Metal this time from FLESHROT, German Speed Metallers CRUEL FORCE, 1 man avant-garde band THY CATAFALQUE and Chicago Hardcore from ABSOLUTE TRUTH. R.I.P. to the riff lord JEFF HANNEMAN! RILEY GALE Forver!

#61 Stuck In A Tok Hole
4/26/2023
1:28:53
Truth be told neither one of us knew about the IRON MAIDEN singers pre PAUL DI'ANNO and we're ashamed (well at least Mikey is) ... but better late than never as they say. What we do know however is April 25th is a super important date in Metal history being DIO era BLACK SABBATH was officially unleashed on the world on this day in 1980 with the iconic album Heaven And Hell being released. Also not only was one of the main blueprints for Thrash metal released courtesy of EXODUS and their debut Bonded By Blood but 4/25 is the birthdate of the late PAUL BALOFF who fronted the Bay Area legends on the album prior to his untimely passing. We also know Canada goes hard as nails as we pay mind to some sick music hailing from the Great White North including total audio carnage of DEFORMATORY, the flutecifer (flute + Lucifer...you'll get it when you listen to the episode) sounds of doom occultists BLOOD CEREMONY, Maggot Stomp Death Metal newcomers DYING REMAINS, new Thrash insanity from TERRIFIER and some catchy AF, shoe gazey, post hardcore via CLONED APPARITION. So grab some syrup, put on some NHL playoffs (NY Isles are currently up 2-0 as I write this) and turn up the volume as episode #61 is as pleasing as a maple walnut donut from the local Tim Horton's Canada 🇨🇦.

Our last episode was lackluster at best (our apologies) but we make it up to you on episode #58! Some insane tours got announced that we rap about including DRAIN, MIDNIGHT and VENOM INC. all of which have killer support in tow. We end up playing a ton of rad music also including new tracks from Japans BLOW YOUR BRAINS OUT, Philly's newest SCARAB, Denmark thrashers AVARICE, UK differs MARGARITA WITCH CULT and the latest heater from death metal Texans CREEPING DEATH. We actually play a bunch of other shit as well and somehow we get into how incredible the movie The Beastmaster is!

Episode 57 is a little rough mainly because Mikey is at half voice and struggled to complete this recording. Alas we pulled through and we definitely have some rad shit for everybody including a handful of legendary album anniversaries, some new live music announced featuring a string of shows from THE MISFITS. Plus in our usual fashion we have new music this time from killer bands including crossover thrashers PARALYSIS, Rome's tech death extremists HIDEOUS DIVINITY, the crust d-beat of sounds of NEGATIVE PRAYER, the metallic hardcore sounds of SLOW PULSE and the gnarliest band to be featured on MOTB to date Maines disgusting, anxiety ridden, gore ridden SEEP!
