Tuesday Jan 29, 2019
It's out 18th birthday (episodes, not years. Pay attention), which means this podcast is old enough to drink. To celebrate we got pretty tipsy and crafted a sequel to a much loved episode.

17. Bros - After The Screaming Stops
Tuesday Jan 08, 2019
Tuesday Jan 08, 2019
Heavy nu-year and welcome to 2019 A.K.A. THE most metal year yet. We stand by that claim.
And what better way to start off our heaviest year yet by discussing 80's one hit wonder Bros' recent BBC documentary film After The Screaming Stops.
We're still not sure this is actually real because it's too perfect - Spinal Tap meets The Office meets Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping - but we do our best to comprehend the brothers Luke and Matt Goss' journey from 80s pop sensation to 80s nostalgia pop sensation.
Also discussed - Casualty, Holby City and the never ending accident and emergency woes of Bristol, England.

Saturday Dec 01, 2018
Slowly We Rock investigates the bizarre viral phenomenon of L.A. one man rock band Threatin and it's mastermind Jared Threatin - a man quickly becoming The Room of rock and metal - who faked an online fanbase and booked a European tour to play to absolutely no one. And it only gets weirder.
If you're reading this then you're already part of the illusion.
Also Djent music. What's the big idea? We also talk tech metal and the appeal of the genre.
A big thanks to Metal Sucks for their comprehensive investigation of Threatin, without whom this episode would not have been possible.
