Description

Rex and Duff are tackling a heavy question this week: Are we losing our connection to the music? With millions of tracks just a click away, we discuss whether having infinite access has actually made us value individual albums less. Do we still sit with a record, read the liner notes, and let it haunt us, or have we become "musical tourists" constantly chasing the next skip button?


We dive into how AI and streaming are changing the face of creation and ownership, comparing the temporary nature of a digital stream to the permanent weight of physical media. Is the true metal spirit found in that deep, physical connection to a hard-earned record, or are we just adapting to a new world of endless sound? Grab your headphones and join us for a deep dive into the soul of the scene in the digital age.
