Shit Talk Reviews

It's Death Ray Vision Day in the Sh!t Talk Studio! In this episode we get into DRV's new album No Mercy From Electric Eyes, discuss David J naked on a deserted island and speak quite highly of Boston's high-class mosh pit etiquette.   Many thanks for all the #STRDefaced pics you've sent us. If you need a stash for your stickering needs, hit us up at our Instagram! #deathrayvisi...

You're stuck on a deserted island. Forever. You've got next to nothing with you except (obviously) a few albums and the means to play them.  We jump in for a quick conversation about a few of the albums that we'd definitely want with us. No surprise to any of us, David wants the quintessential Barry Manilow collection. Derek throws a curveball and goes with a Bette Midler retrospect...

Queens Of The Stone Age dropped a new album and we just had to get into it. It’s a spicy bit of conversation and the guns were blazing. David J’s forehead has a target on it, Derek inadvertently launches an idea for a White Stripes reggae band and John still can’t read.    Check our IG and LinkTree for this and all our other reviews and do some defacing with some Sh!t Talk stickers!   IG - https:/...

Once again, David J has flown the coop, so we're relegated to Zoom to dig into this week's album review.  Finland's own OneFromTheNorth steps up with his third album, and he brings the madness with a fusion of metal and electronic. We also learn that John can't read, Derek loves domestic beer and David can live (at least) one more week with a reduced level of fear. #industrialm...

Things fall apart pretty quickly with this episode. (Then they get better, then all hell breaks loose.) Throughout all of it though, we get to talk about the latest release from King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard: PetroDragonic Apocalypse; or, Dawn of Eternal Night: An Annihilation of Planet Earth and the Beginning of Merciless Damnation. David J  looks past his advanced age and laces up his ska...

In today's deep dive we get into Avenged Sevenfold's latest album Life Is But A Dream . In a strange turn of events this week, the shit talking is not directed at David. (So you can all rest well, know that we've set up some counseling to help him get through these unprecedented times...) We also muse about why Country Time Lemonade still hasn't come through with the big sponso...

David J is back in the house! To celebrate his triumphant return, we'll be waxing poetic about wearing masks to preserve (and/or protect) one's identity from the masses, lighting podcast hosts on fire and the never ending search for the right words for this, that and anything else. We also find some time to talk about a killer new record from the mysterious Sermon. Tune in to get caught...

This week we continue to lament David J's absence while we talk about Cloak's new album Black Flame Eternal. We also touch on some of life's bigger questions: Are tighty whiteys appropriate for formal events? Should a visit to a gravesite be a cause for party poppers? Will the European Union permanently ban David for being a mostly-naked American? Join us for absolutely no answers t...

On this installment of A Gaggle Of Idiots Act Like They Know What They're Talking About, Derek and John lament David's absence, the guys set themselves up to be hunted and (potentially killed) by music industry heavyweights and they dig into [m]other, the killer new release from Veil Of Maya. Thanks to all who have supported us by sacrificing their scant few free minutes to check out wha...

In this episode we're talking about Unearth's latest album The Wretched; The Ruinous. We also explore the psychology of Derek's hypocrisy, John drinks some (more) lemonade and David puts forth an outlandish wardrobe request.  Drop us a line! What bands do you want us to review? Who should we interview next?

Discussing the highly anticipated 2023 Periphery release Djent Is Not A Genre. In this episode, the tables get turned and our resident whipping boy hands off his crown (at least for now...) and we get into the weeds as we discuss the prog metal giants that make up Periphery and their latest album.  Drop us a line! What bands do you want us to review? Who should we interview next?

A conversation about Scorched, the 20th release from thrash metal veterans Overkill. (And of course, a healthy dose of shit talking...) Drop us a line! What bands do you want us to review? Who should we interview next?

The inaugural Sh!t Talk Review.   Episode 1 - Metallica's 2023 release 72 Seasons. Drop us a line! What bands do you want us to review? Who should we interview next?
