Radio Toilet ov Hell

We’re enjoying the final days of Summer and there’s no better way to celebrate than by taking an audio journey to the Southern hemisphere. A couple years ago we made a trek to Japan to enjoy a wide variety of heavy metal noises. This time around we’re setting our sights on Chile. Join me and Jordan as we learn some cursory facts about the longest country and explore some ripping...

This week on Toilet Radio: Sometimes a man has to make a very silly decision. In this case, that man is Jeff ( @Solidstapp ) and the decision is to attend an all-day local music fest with more bands than paying attendees hosted in a motel conference room.

Meanwhile, Sticker Mule, a sticker printing company, d...

This week on Toilet Radio we tackle artificial intelligence in heavy metal. In the past we’ve discussed odious little AI projects like Frostbite Orckings and ShredderZ which were, all credit due, absolutely odious.

This week on Toilet Radio we watched Underground Inc ., a documentary about the forgotten edges of the 90s alternative rock boom.

We did it. On this most celebratory episode of Toilet Radio we’re joined by Brenocide for a jam-packed two-part episode filled with listener questions, voicemails, and silly suggestions.

This week on Toilet Radio: We’re honing in on a style of 90’s-esque rock n’ roll that we’ve termed Nü Alternative.

W...
