Show Notes
Discography host Marc With a C posits (and tries to answer) the eternal question: what IS Black Sabbath? Armed only with the records, some supplemental reading material, and a little commentary through the season from Jim Myers of Milk Carton Superstars, Razorfist (aka The Rageaholic, host of Black Sabbath: Metal Mythos), Ernie Cunnigan (producer of the Forbidden album, guitarist for Body Count), and some recited exclusive commentary from a source that could change all that you know about Sabbath, Marc chronicles their post-Forbidden releases/activity/false starts, including Heaven & Hell's The Devil You Know, all the way to 13! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

After an entire season spent searching for the stories hidden in the grooves, we finish by hearing from someone who put them there. Last time, Derrick Bostrom helped us straighten out the Meat Puppets' first decade into their stint on London Records. Now, things get weird.
We've spent seven episodes telling the story that The Meat Puppets' records contained; now we get to hear the story from someone who lived it.
Some reunions chase the past. The Meat Puppets used theirs to prove the story wasn't over.
Sometimes the end of one band is the beginning of several new adventures: unlikely supergroups, overlooked masterpieces, and the quiet confidence of an artist who kept moving forward no matter what name appeared on the album cover.
Not every chapter in a band's history is defined by triumph. Sometimes the most revealing stories are the ones told through uncertainty.
