Episode 138 from 2023-02-04T19:47:09
My dog Winona died yesterday. This episode has nothing to do with that aside from the fact that I needed to do something to keep my mind off things. 00:00:00 Christopher Marlowe, with Frank...

Episode 136–(Mostly Weird) Metal from 2022-06-20T17:34:08
All of these songs came out this year. Most of this is non-traditional black metal. The rest is other non-traditional metal that can barely even contain that wide genre. 00:00:00 RLYR – Head Womb...

Episode 135–Holy Music In America from 2022-05-23T16:26:26
I tried to keep a broad enough definition of"holy"to include a variety of music beyond just the obvious gospel and hymns. This is A Thick Mist so I made sure to inject some black metal, hip hop, an...

Episode 134–Carnatic Music from 2022-04-24T21:08:44
I think Hindustani tends to be the more popular style of classical Indian music in the west (see: Ravi Shankar, Ali Akbar Khan, Chatur Lal, Dagar Brothers, etc) so I figured I'd shed some light on ...

Episode 133–Appalachian Folk&Blues from 2022-04-18T22:39:31
I thought it would be fun to highlight the wide variety rolling down the mountains: everything from the banjo instrumentals of Hobart Smith to the lone black lung vocals of Nimrod Workman. I've alw...

Episode 132–Weird&Erotic from 2022-04-11T15:22:28
This episode is super explicit and not safe for work (unless you're a sex worker I guess). 99% of the spoken word is people talking about sex stuff like blowjob instructions.

Episode 131–Metal from 2022-04-03T20:24:11
I thought I'd try something new. A new process that might fit into my life and a new approach to curation that might appeal to more people.

Episode 128–Soundtrack Special from 2021-07-12T15:04:04
Got inspired to do an entire episode of soundtracks. Mostly horror and sci-fi stuff, there's a pretty good mix of new and old. The bit with Upstream Color&Annihilation is fuckin crazy.

Episode 127–Nu Metal Special from 2021-03-12T16:31:46
I love nu metal. There was a short period of my life where I was a little ashamed by it, but that's long gone. There is some really good stuff in the genre that I think most people ignored because ...

Episode 126 from 2021-03-04T15:23:52
This is the first episode in a long time with no black metal. The only metal is some massive doom. But there's also some wind harp drone, weirdo Japanese disco, the Inanga queen, the new solo acous...

Episode 122–Halloween Special from 2020-10-28T15:32:37
Field recordings of an autopsy, a rotting corpse, and an electric chair execution, as well as cult leader monologs, trance babblings, lots of deep dark ambient, and a truly memorable ending.

Episode 121 from 2020-08-13T15:50:37
Not much metal in this one. Ihighlyrecommend checking out Cinder Well's album in full. Ends with 30+ minutes of absolute mayhem while Paul Giamatti readsA Scanner Darkly.

Episode 120 from 2020-08-06T17:11:53
This is a pretty heavy&dark episode with tons of collaging (there's 4 songs going at once for part of"Blood Rite") but ends on a light note with some simultaneous Jobin/Atkinson action and a couple...
