IT’S EPISODE ONE HUNDRED! This turns out to be a non-event (Thanks, COVID!), but still manages to be a fun show. CHR opens with some crossover/hardcore from the Cro-Mags while Doug indulges his “chugga-chug” side with Lamb Of God’s newest. CHR gets slow and grimy in the indie segment with WeedWizard, while Doug highlights a forgotten band from the 1990s with Corrosion of Conformity’s fourth album.
