Slowly We Rock

59. MCU Retrospective

Hey true believers! 

With Marvel's Loki en route, we're taking a little detour from the norm and stepping into an alternate universe where your 3 favourite podcasters (that'd be us, thank you...) team up with Comic Book Fix's very own Sam to spend 100 minutes discussing our highlights of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. 

There will be shocking twists, action and adventure as we each bring our 5 favourite flicks to the table! Enjoy 4 men in their thirties getting giddy over comic book characters as for one day, we become Slowly We Rock(et Raccoon)! 

Sorry, that's the best I could do. 

58. Gojira - Mr Groovy Greatdrums

French metal titans Gojira have released another huge record, Fortitude, and we're pretty excited to talk about it! That's right, we're talking about an album that's less than 10 years old! 

We're also discussing the nuances of Cannibal Corpse, whether Mulder is a good friend in The X Files, Architects foray into the mainstream and Invincible!

57. Faith No More - Angel Dust

Do you sometimes sing or whistle, just for fun? Do you feel sometimes that age is against you? 

Well, we can help you to help yourself with this deep dive of one of the most genre-bending, ground breaking, and downright wild albums of all time; Faith No More's monstrous 'Angel Dust'. A name so beautiful for something so ugly, this album lives up to the monicker in spades. We really get into the guts of this thing, and try to pinpoint exactly what is the special sauce that makes this album so deserved of it's reverence. 

We also finally get to find out who Dan's mystery bald man is. You're welcome. 

56. The Snyder Cut

We’re back with some breaking headlines; Steve Vai needs surgery after holding a chord for 20 minutes, AC/DC’s Highway to Hell is still a great album, and Architects are a heavy metal band that people of all genders can enjoy. Don’t say we don’t stay relevant!

We’re also discussing one of the strangest events in movie-studio history; the “Snyder Cut” of Warner Brothers’ Justice League. Is it good? Is it bad? Is it a lot of slow motion with a heavy gradient filter? Find out this, and more, with your 3 favourite heavy metal hunks.

55. Limp Bizkit - Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water

Ladies and gentlemen! 

Introducing, the single most in-depth, loving critique of Limp Bizkit's Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water. We take a look at a real timestamp of our g-g-generation, an album that your darling hosts grew up with. Is it a joke? Is it lightning-in-a-bottle, never to be equalled? Is swinging on my nuts a f**ked up game? 

We'll answer this, and a lot more as we take you on (probably) the most focused breakdown of the album, the time and most importantly, Fred Durst. 

Can you feel it?

54. The Mandalorian Special

We are taking a little time to indulge ourselves in some nerdy Star Wars chat, after wrapping up series 2 of Disney's "The Mandalorian". We're also talking Jedi: Fallen Order and the state of the post-sequel trilogy universe. Consider this episode as us getting Star Wars out of our system, so we can remain the cool, collected, and focused hosts that you know and love.

This is the way.

53. Catfishing with Nikki Sixx

This week, we're covering some all important discussions; balding rock stars, catfishing with your favourite 80s icons, and in a surprise turn we actually talk music, taking a look at our most played artists of 2020! 

We also cover games and TV (come on, it's not the best time for music news right now...), and experience Lewis lose his mind as we finally meet our match; bad internet connection. 

52. Return of the Wise Guys

We're back! It's a new year, new us, baby! 

Well, it's still us, and we're easing ourselves back in with a lot of movie talk (let's face it, there's not a lot happening in the world of live music right now....). We're talking Mafioso classics, The Godfather and The Sopranos, the horrors of Zoom calls with Host, and new Pixar classic, Soul to lighten things up. 

We also ask; is Garage Inc a good album, really? Is 2021 any better than 2020? Has it really been a whole year that we've lived with The Rise of Skywalker? All this and more as we crack open 2021 and suckle the sweet goodness that we all need this year to bring. 

51. The December Halloween Special: Sabbath vs Ozzy

Uh Oh! It's that special time of the year. The snow is falling, the presents are wrapped and the Jack-O'-lanterns are carved.

Wait. 

Ahhh, we've goofed, so we're rolling two holidays into one! To celebrate all things spooky, we're chatting about our favourite chilling flicks to enjoy with a nice glass of eggnog. We're also doing our first head to head, featuring the crypt-keepers of heavy metal, Black Sabbath and Ozzy Osbourne! 

It's Heaven and Hell vs. Diary of a Madman, who will reign victorious?

Jingle jingle, scream. I don't know, it's all very confusing. 

50. Eddie Van Halen

We remember rock's greatest guitarist, the man that changed everything, the inimitable Eddie Van Halen.
