Thunderdome Metal Reviews: The Church of Heavy Metal

Metalheads!! Tracey is a man with a vision, a vision of having David & Gabe weigh in on reviews that we had done before they joined the team. So, in the waning days of 2021, we gathered and looked back at albums by Nailbomb, Anthrax, Michael Romero, and Mercyful Fate. 

Metalheads!! We decided to start the year with reviews of albums you may have missed in 2021. Tracey's pick, Nashville tech-death stalwarts, Inferi. 

Metalheads! This discography blast is our spinning of four albums by one of Tracey's favorite bands, Mastodon. We check out Leviathan (2004), Blood Mountain (2006), Crack the Skye (2009), & Once More 'Round the Sun (2014). A note on sound quality, we recorded this on Dec 11th mere hours after the devastating tornadoes that ravaged Western Kentucky on Dec 10th. As you can imagine, the power and...

Metalheads!! We decided to start the year off with reviews of albums you may have missed in 2021. David chose the New Zealand wunderkinds Alien Weaponry's second album, Tangaroa. 

Metalheads!! To start of the year we selected some albums you may have missed from last year. This episode is Ben's pick the 2021 effort of longtime industrial outfit Front Line Assembly. 

Metalheads!! Somehow we've made it to the first day of 2022 and the final part of our crawl through the discography of Slipknot. Have a little hair of the dog and a bit of metal too. 

Metalheads! Roll for initiative and lift your tankards of ale, we are going on an adventure. 

Metalheads!! November is Tracey's preferred month for doom, and he has chosen the latest by Khemmis as his new release to review.

Metalheads!! Merry Metal X-Mas, have our review of Slipknot's fifth album! Thank you all for your support!

Metalheads!! A little bit of the ol' Christmas Eve metalcore on this blast as we spin four by Code Orange: Love Is Love/Return to Dust (2012), I Am King (2014), Forever (2017), & Underneath (2020).

Metalheads!! David brings some thrash to the table for his November new release pick. Choosing the eleventh studio album by thrash legends Exodus!

Metalheads!! Ben returns to his roots as a #SDMF and has selected Black Label Society's Doom Crew, INC as his pick for an album released in November of 2021.

Metalheads!! From the capital of corporate rebellion comes our first foray into butt metal, with Five Finger Death Punch's debut from 2007.

Metalheads!! Tracey offers us a heaping slab of atmospheric black metal from the Tyrolean Alps. 

Metalheads!! We go back to where death metal arguably began, the debut album from Morbid Angel, Altars of Madness!

Metalheads!! In this episode, we journey back in time to listen to Chris Barnes and Terry West's then side project, Six Feet Under's second studio album Warpath. Ben and David have memories of this but what will Tracey and Gabe think?

Metalheads!!! Tracey's pick for an album released in October is this double album from the Atlanta group Mastodon.

Metalheads!! David's pick for an album coming out in October is this third slice of World War I influenced metal by the Ukrainian death machines 1914.

Metalheads!!!! We celebrate Thanksgiving by reviewing Slipknot's fourth studio album as we continue to crawl through their discography.

Metalheads!! Ben's selection for an album released in October is here in death metal legends Blood Red Throne's tenth studio effort. A band that most of us had little experience with.

Metalheads!! David indulges his love of Swedish melodic death metal and brings forth a fistful of Soilwork for us to consider.   Figure Number Five (2003), Stabbing the Drama (2005), The Panic Broadcast (2010), and The Ride Majestic (2015). Unfortunately, Ben proves he is a moron and listened to The Living Infinite instead of The Ride Majestic, so he drops out for the last album.  

Metalheads!! These Australian metallers channel their inner Hall & Oats and release a long-delayed album. One we are bound by the chicken accords to cover. 

Metalheads!! David Vincent of Morbid Angel fame and Blasphemer from Mayhem are joined by Flo Mounier to create this blackened death "supergroup." Does it live up to the pedigree?

Metalheads!! What happens when you combine Hardcore and Sludge? You get this project by Jamey Jasta and Kirk Windstein join us in the Kingdom of Sorrow!

Metalheads!! Tracey heard that a new Rivers of Nihil album was coming out in September of this year and immediately selected it for us to review.
