09. Non-Canonical Bonus Colonel Sanders
Tuesday Sep 04, 2018
Tuesday Sep 04, 2018
We're back!
After a short break for our summer holidays Slowly We Rock return with a brand new episode. We talk the almighty Iron Maiden's Legacy of the Beast tour, our love of Killswitch Engage, the blastphemous Behemoth, their love of sacrilegious palindromes and Nergal's Instagram. Also non-stop fast food talk.
Racist Papa John's metalcore connection? We got you. 80s rockstars playing KFC's very own Colonel Sanders? We got you. As usual things took a turn.

08. Thin Lizzy - Live and Dangerous
Tuesday Aug 14, 2018
Tuesday Aug 14, 2018
In a shocking change of format Slowly We Rock decides to talk about a good album!
It turns out James' knowledge of Thin Lizzy is pretty poor so Dan and Lewis talk him through one of the all time great live albums. We delve into the unrivalled charisma of Phil Lynott, cover the classic dueling guitar and galloping bass and drum sound that inspired the likes of Iron Maiden, Mastodon and Metallica, and we get down and dirty about those nasty rumours that this live album might not have been so "live' afterall.
We also embrassingly forget to talk about Huey Lewis playing harmonica (we're lovers, not experts).

This episode is a fever dream.
Strap in and join Slowly We Rock as we take our long awaited journey into the world of musical theatre. A random game show gives birth to an epic broadway musical featuring the less famous songs of Guns N' Roses, the dubious talents of John Travolta and a love story that spans years and miles - from the whisky soaked streets of 80s LA to a Mad Max style post-apocalypse American wasteland - where opposites truly attract.
We also talk about Deafheaven for 5 minutes.

06. The Shit List: Motley Crue - Generation Swine
Tuesday Jul 17, 2018
Tuesday Jul 17, 2018
Welcome to another hit from the shit list. We gather in our "new" podcasting studio to debate "can listening to an album make you stupid?' and dive into Motley Crue's Generation Swine album.
Listen in horror as 80's most decadent band reunite with their original singer only to ditch the sex, drugs and rock and roll and embrace angst, grunge, songs about the Tokyo subway attack and maybe the most awkard tribute to a loved one ever.
Dr. Feelgood is under investigation for malpractice; let us "prey" for his soul.

05. Say Something Nice About St. Anger
Wednesday Jul 04, 2018
Wednesday Jul 04, 2018
The immovable object versus the irresistible force - we try and say something nice about Metallica's St. Anger
Can dustbin lid snares be cool? Are 8 minute songs with 1 riff a good thing? Were we smart to give up and talk about something else? Join us for somber talk about Metallica's lowest point
This epsiode is maybe the most random chat we've ever done. Will Axl turn up to Download, David Lee Roth the mafioso card shark, the Avenged Sevenfold/Cher collaberation we've all been waiting for and, most importantly of all, Lewis Blake - disaster human.

04. The Bon Jovi Network
Tuesday Jun 19, 2018
Tuesday Jun 19, 2018
We hope you like Jon Bon Jovi, and his famous rock band Bon Jovi, as much as we do because we talk about the man for 45 minutes straight.
Welcome to a world where Bon Jovi isn't just a rock icon; he's also the star an entire television network's fall line up, and maybe an immoral psychopath. Bon Jovi flipping houses? Bon Jovi legal drama? Bon Jovi super nanny? Bon Jovi bounty hunter? We've got you covered. Saturday nights will never been the same again #SWRBonJoviImYourMan
Also included; Cannibal Corpse, Ric Flair, Hammerfest, Lewis' anus, Ant and Dec and Blaze Bayley

03. The Shit List: Kiss - Music From 'The Elder'
Tuesday Jun 05, 2018
Tuesday Jun 05, 2018
Join Slowly We Rock as we delve into the world of Kiss's not so epic 1981 fantasy concept album Music From 'The Elder'. This week we explore the half assed heroes journey that almost cost Kiss their career and ask what happens when a party rock band try to reinvent them selves as conceptual prog, how much cocaine did the producer inhale, how great it would be to play Dungeons and Dragons with Paul Stanely and why you don't want to owe a slumlord like Mr. Blackwell rent money. Get ready to learn about one of the weirdest attempts at reinvention to not quite rock the world.
Welcome to The Shit List.
We also cover trips to Butlins and classic rock festivals, Thin Lizzy and Iron Maiden tribute bands and how great it is to have Def Leppard on Spotify. WARNING: DAD ROCK ALERT!

Tuesday May 22, 2018
We saw the mighty Machine Head live! Join your very hungover hosts as we talk all things Machine 'Fucking' Head - the highs and the lows.

Other topics covered - meet Dr. Feelgoood, Lewis' Guns N Roses crowdfunding campaign, Darkest Hour, Tay Zonday, Ronnie James Dio RIP and FUCK BUCHERRY. Find more of us on Instagram and Twitter at @SlowlyWeRock

01. Black Lace, Blue Albums And The Day The Music Died.
Tuesday May 08, 2018
Tuesday May 08, 2018
We all die a little inside as we reopen an old case file, delve into the dark depths of the inhuman psyche and learn of quite possibly the worst band to ever walk God's green earth. We breakdown Black Lace's Blue album. Discover the rock from which they crawled under, death, fraud, sex offences, body doubles and Elon Musk's open invitation to hostile alien life forms. We said the best was yet to come. We may have spoke too soon.
