Show notes

THE CURSE OF YARG IS UPON US!

During this week's episode of the Mars Attacks Podcast, Brad Dahl of Yarg Metal returns to the show.

If you've listed to any Yarg-themed episode you know that Brad brings us all types of great stories. Well, I say great, because they always teeter between being entertaining and cringeworthy!

Dr. Poison brings the goods, talking about music he's posting on Yarg Metal. Bands he's jamming with, or wanting to jam with. There is always some gear talk. A show he's caught in the past that will blow your mind.

Or something from his day job that makes you question how humans are still roaming the Earth!

Signals From Mars 248 - Return To Earth Nov 11, 2021

Show notes

RON SCALZO AND CHRIS PENNIE OF RETURN TO EARTH

In this episode of the Mars Attacks Podcast, Ron Scalzo and Chris Pennie of Return To Earth join the show.

During the episode, we discuss the band's recently released EP Big Ideas, and their upcoming full-length album Oblivion.

We also touch upon several other topics including the eleven years since the band's last album Automata. That album was released on Metal Blade Records, will the album come out on a label or Ron a.k.a. Q*Ball's Bald Freak Music imprint?

The reality about being able to release physical copies of albums in 2021, given all of the issues surrounding the manufacturing of vinyl.

The nine years between Ron's last appearance on the show, and the fact that Chris and I grew up in neighboring towns! Small world as he puts it.

This episode of the Signals From Mars is the audio version of the October 29th, 2021 episode of the Signals From Mars live stream.
