Matt and Blake discuss the long awaited Time II by Wintersun.
They discuss the many rounds of crowdfunding, why there was a Time I in the first place and whether the album lives up to the hype.
But most importantly, could Jari have made this album without a sauna?
-
Matt tells Blake about his unexpected trip to see Sonic Symphony featuring Ty Christian of Lords of the Trident on vocals. Also why this occurred because of Threads, the Twitter of Facebook. A surprisingly positive episode. Apologies to our regular listeners, someone will definitely dislike something on the next one.

Matt and Blake review and discuss Judas Priest's latest album "Invincible Shield"
After a strong reception for "Firepower" can Judas Priest maintain such a high level of quality at this stage in their career?
And does it also sound like Painkiller?
-
Matt and Blake discuss Jeff's departure from Arch Enemy and discuss the history of Nevermore, and why Blake doesn't like them and also why he's wrong

Rumors of Jeff & Van playing together again are discussed but will be covered in more detail in Part 2 (the next episode, whatever that is)

Your Music Is Bad Episode 77
We listen to Winger's new record "Seven" as well as their "classic" 90s album "Pull" which they will be performing in its entirety while headlining ProgPower USA in 2024
Matt and Blake attempt to unravel the more mature themes and lyrics on these albums as well as the extremely 80s not-so-mature ones, which are also definitely still there
Is Pain of Salvation influenced by Winger or are Winger influenced by Pain of Salvation?

Your Music Is Bad Episode 78 - Settle Down, Scardust!
Matt and Blake stumbled onto Scardust on YouTube, and while they are a perfectly competent symphonic prog metal band, they are very annoying and also their music is bad.
Matt Lee and Blake Robertson stumbled onto Israeli symphonic prog metal band Scardust
While not reading too much into their song about taming the land or whatever (yikes) but focusing on their diddly-doos and idiot choir chorus, they can see how a fan of The Prog might appreciate this competent yet very annoying band.
