   1. Episode 284: Van Halen - Discography Discussion

   Go big or go home! It’s finally time for Discography Discussion to talk about Van Halen. Joined by Jon Drake of the Nerfherder Council, Joe leads the charge into this mighty band’s discography. Expect plenty of Eddie and Alex fanboy moments on this one.  While the core of this band has not changed much over time, and fans can be polar opposite when it comes to who the singer is, there is no doubting Van Halen’s influence on so many guitar players and heavy metal bands.  No one can hold back this

   It used to be hard to be an extreme metal fan in the 80's and 90's when everyone was sure every random corner of the world was brimming with hidden Satanic cults.  Tonight on Discuss Metal Live we discuss what it was like growing up in a society that hated the music we loved so much. #discussmetalJoin our Patreon: Discography Discussion on Patreon - http://bit.ly/discussmetalpatreonDiscography Discussion Podcast Homepage - http://bit.ly/DiscographyDiscussionSubscribe to RSS - https://podcast.dis

   This week we dive head first into the world of blasphemous death metal with Deicide.  We try our best in this episode to figure out if Deicide is sincere, or a tongue in cheek band designed specifically to piss off everyone from all walks of life.  Dan can't help but read the lyrics aloud on this one while Mike and Joe try to keep it about the music.  Don’t miss this one, it has old school vibes.  Enjoy! #discussmetal #deicideJoin our Patreon: Discography Discussion on Patreon - http://bit.ly/di

   Fans of progressive music can sometimes have trouble “getting into” newer bands in the genre.  The reasoning is different for everyone, but it can sometimes be hard to give a band a chance when stacked against giants of the genre.  Is Rivers of Nihil able to convince Dan and Joe that they have something unique to offer in comparison to their favorite progressive bands?  You’ll just have to click play to find out.

    As we pivot away from nu-metal back into more familiar territory, Dan and Joe turn to Battlecross for salvation.  Is this band’s intense cocktail of melodic death metal , thrash, and traditional heavy metal enough to convince Dan that modern bands can still deliver on the level of more classic metal bands?  I guess you will find out!  Also, we take some time to cover new opportunities on this episode of Discography Discussion.  Check it out! #discussmetal #BattlecrossJoin our Patreon: Discograph

    Can star power association carry a band?  This is the question everyone had about Adema when the band broke into the nu-metal scene in 2001, and there is an association with another very popular band.  On this episode of Discography Discussion we dig into everything Adema has to offer, and see if this band had merit on their own, or if they were riding the wave of somebody else’s success.  Spoilers:  We like Adema.

    Morgoth was a hungry band who wanted to be as heavy and brutal as they come in the early 90’s death metal scene.  But, they didn't do that for some reason.  On this episode of Discography Discussion Dan, Joe, and Geoff dive into a band who strove to redefine what they were about to a mixed reception, and we try to figure out whether experimentation works for every band.

     188. Episode 151: Showbread - Discography Discussion

     Showbread was a band that you either “got” or you didn’t. No matter which side of the fence you are on, you have to admit that they were unique in a sea of hardcore, emo, and punk rock bands in the early 2000s. On this episode of Discography Discussion Dan, Joe, and Buddy dig into the weird rock opera, industrial, and alternative rock dubbed “Raw Rock” stylings of Showbread and figure out if this band was creatively rich or creatively dry. #discussmetal #ShowbreadJoin our Patreon: Discography Di

     Welcome to Movie Mosh! Dan, Joe, and Mike sit down to watch one of the most metal animated films of all time, Ralph Bakshi’s The Lord Of The Rings. At a time when clever animation was casually defined as “whatever Disney was releasing this week,” Ralph Bakshi had his own style, and managed to put his own message into his films. The Lord Of The Rings may have been mistakenly released alongside Rankin/Bass The Hobbit, and The Return Of The King, but do not be mistaken. This film is not the same an

     196. Episode 146: 16Volt - Discography Discussion

     Industrial December is in full swing this week when Dan and Joe sit down and give their thoughts on every album by 16 Volt. Did this band get overshadowed by bigger industrial rock bands of the mid and late 90’s? If so, was it their fault?

     The concept of a “hidden gem” is so overplayed nowadays that its original meaning is starting to become lost. This week, we kick off Industrial December with a hidden gem in the form of Mnemic, a Danish industrial/metal/core/thrash band who brings everything they have to the table. Geoff returns to the show to help us sort through each album, and let you know exactly why you should give Mnemic a chance to impress you. It’s hard to blow past a giant list of established bands in favor of something

     198. Episode 144: After The Burial - Discography Discussion

     It’s really hard for a band to do anything original or fun when the genre they play in is very oversaturated. After the Burial does their best to separate themselves from the sea of metalcore clone bands they have existed alongside throughout their career. Are they successful in this? Dan, Joe, and Chris take this episode to try and figure out if this band is unique, or if they fit the mold so many other bands occupy. #discussmetal #AfterTheBurialJoin our Patreon: Discography Discussion on Patre
