EWB 376 FROM THE VAULT: DAN LILKER Dec 04, 2024

Show notes

This week, we’re tapping into the vault for an old episode from the late, great Metal Matters podcast. Some of you were around for that era of Gimme Metal and the very cool things we did. This was episode 4, featuring the legendary Dan Lilker, a man who needs no introduction. Danny has been a key member in some of the most iconic bands in metal: Anthrax, Nuclear Assault, Brutal Truth, Hemlock…the list goes on. I caught up with Danny in Rochester, NY when Tombs came through town on tour. My voice was a little shot, so apologies for that.

Intro: “All the Dark Things” – Mike Hill
Outro: “Vision” – Brutal Truth

EWB 372 PATREON EPISODE HOLLYWOOD BABYLON W EVAN HOPPER Nov 06, 2024

Show notes

This week, we are pulling an episode from the Patreon vault. Evan Hopper of the Quell and I do these types of episodes from time to time called Hollywood Babylon where to get into “interesting films”.

Taxi Driver is an iconic film, a masterpiece by legendary filmmakers Martin Scorcese and Paul Schrader . Its influence can be seen all over the last several decades of film. Lurking in the shadows you will find God’s Lonely Man, pretty much a sleazy rip off, a movie that most may dismiss as pure exploitation, but for some reason, we can’t seem to stop thinking about this mid-90’s study in loneliness and depravity.

Intro: “Hollywood Babylon” – Evan Hopper
Outro: “Faust” – Verberis
