Description

Get ready for another dose of high-volume heavy metal and low-budget horror! Rex and Duff are back, and this week we're digging our nails further into the coffin of Metal Horror Films, continuing our discussion on the perfect and imperfect blending of loud riffs and cinematic gore.


Then, we transition to a debate that's been rattling the scene for decades: "Built-by-the-Label" Bands. We're talking about bands that emerged from a carefully crafted marketing plan rather than the garage. Do they count? Can they make great music despite their origins? We focus on one band in particular but tough on the concept itself. 


Finally, we close out the show with a round of Halloween Havoc Tough Choices! We're pitting everything spooky, scary, and seasonal against each other in our popular "King of the Mountain" format. Tune in and scream along as we make some impossible decisions!
