After the highs of one of rock's biggest albums, we're diving into perhaps the greatest-bad biopic of all time; VH1's "Hysteria - The Def Leppard Story".
Is it described as "the biggest pile of shit ever made" by Leppard's Joe Elliot? You bet.
Does it bizarrely re-write history to turn the band it's celebrating into a bunch of lunatic monster people? You're goddamned right it does.
Is it the least convincing representation of England (filmed entirely overseas) put to screen? Yes. All of the yes.
It's terrible and fascinating and completely tone-def (hyuck) and we're very excited to discuss this, Dan mostly so that he never has to sit through it again. With no one involved wanting to take any credit, you can even find the entire thing on YouTube, so you get the peaches, we'll get the cream, and let's jump straight in!

We break our normal idiocy to talk about something important.
We do also talk about Kevin James and Dream Theater, so there's that.

We make a bizarre change with this one; your boys are actually talking about an album we love!
Def Leppard's Hysteria, the Thriller of rock, an essential album with a budget and background as big as it's monumental success. We break down the music, the lyrics, the production and most importantly the songs, the struggles and the impact this record had across the world.

If there's one thing this lockdown has allowed us, it's the gift of time; time that can be used to further one's knowledge, to create, or to find an especially novel way to utterly ruin the cherished tape-measure of another. Jim proves to be the worst person to lend anything to, ever.
We're also super excited about Trivium's new album! We jump into a bit of a career review as they release their latest outing, the relentless "What The Dead Men Say". Should they be headlining the biggest metal festivals? Have they found their sound? Does Blake risk having a Star Wars related illness exposed to his loved ones under such close living conditions? Huh? What? Something about Trivium.
Let's blow the quarantine blues away with loud music, big banter, and the sweetest 3 boys you'll ever fit in your earholes!

Ayyyyyyyyyy! It's that cool, cool number day, so why not spend it with 3 definite non-Narcs from the comfort (and safety) of your own Palace du Herb.
We've rolled a real fatty of an episode, packed with the most convincing chronic chat you'll ever hear. Again, definitely not Narcs. In honour of a day we know very little about, we start up a little award show to celebrate the madness of the last year, the most bizarre contributions to music, and unearth a tainted vocal tuition CD.
Flick on the black light and crank up that hip-new Dylan record (this is still current, right?) and join us for an all singing, all dancing 420 special.
Ayyyyyyyyy.

Well, here we are once again in lockdown, digging out the joy of a mundane life indoors!
We get somewhat characteristically distracted during this one, so you'll have to forgive our cries for help and absurd wonderings.
Luckily, we've got you covered with; David Coverdale and the Glamorous Grannies as “The Witches”, Carcass - BBQ Music, the shared memory of the characters in Jaws 4, a couple of Al Pacino impressions

Disclaimer - This was recorded a couple of weeks before release and, well... a LOT has happened since then!
We're bringing you our first ever remotely recorded session! Our hands are clean, our doors are locked, and our toilet roll supplies are healthy but not insane. We're talking about various rockstar efforts within the COVID pandemic, Bon Jovi's Dad's pasta sauce (again), Jim's big lockdown playlist, Lewis: Patient Zero and a whole lot more in this first episode in a new world.
Come and join us, have a great time, and stay safe!

Is anyone having a good 2020?
Like, really, is anyone?!
We've got some bad news for you; it's actually the end of the world. Luckily, we're here to lead you into the next world with the answers to all of life's big questions. Is Brett Michaels the singing banana? How do you naturally start a catchphrase? What's really going on with Lamb of God? Which lunatic decided the world needed a special collection of 90s Def Leppard?
Don't worry, we'll make sure you're at peace with this (and more!), before we all meet a grizzly end.
Thanks.

We've dusted off the cobwebs on our mics, and just like Grandpa Joe, we're out of that bed and leaping for a Golden Ticket to your ears!
Lewis takes us through the weird and wonderful joys of Giants of Rock, held each year on the wintery coast of Minehead. Prepare yourself for a run through of the ultimate in British Dad-Rock festivals.
We're also covering; bizarrely youthful hair, the best bottles to take on a long car journey (for... you know), The Life of Pi but the tiger is Clown from Slipknot, exclusive ticket disappointment.

HO HO HO! LET'S GO!
This Christmas, we're finally taking a look at one of our most favourite of festivities; Twisted Sister's "Twisted Christmas". What could be more Christmassy than Dee Snider screaming "O Come All Ye Faithful" straight into your earholes? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. It's camp, it's all over the place, and we can't wait to unwrap it for your listening delight.
We're also talking; does Dan Aykroyd have a place in Christmas movies? Can you name a single character in Love Actually? Which member of Motley Crue is working with a crack team to get in shape for their upcoming tour? All of these will be answered and more in this very special episode of Slowly We Rock.
Oh, and have yourself a merry little Christmas whilst you're at it.
