Wherein Eric and very special guest co-host Schuyler refuse to accept their status as crusty, OLD metalheads and instead choose to dive deeply into the origins of the 21st century progressive modern metal phenomenon that is: djent.
Wherein Eric and special guest co-host Dr. Ross explore the terrifyingly extraordinary latter day careers of King Diamond and Mercyful Fate, beginning in 1990 and working their way all the way up to 2026.
Wherein Eric and John explore the reemergence of heavy metal as a force in popular music/culture at the dawn of the 21st century, including such bands as Limp Bizkit, Korn, Linkin Park, Slipknot, System of a Down, Tool, Evanescence, Metallica, and many more, and John, amazingly, smiles just a couple of times in nostalgic reverie.
Wherein Eric and John return to the fray for season #6(66!) of the Heavy Metal 101 podcast, kicking things off in style with explorations of hardcore, crossover, and early metalcore, and culminating in a discussion of the band Converge and their seminal masterpiece Jane Doe.
