Welcome to the first episode of 2016! This week we talk about a few news items from the tail end of 2016, including Tommy Lee of Motley Crue’s roller-coaster drumkit getting stuck in midair, the return of the mighty Sum 41 (totally not sarcastic), new Aegaeon, the upcoming After the Burial album, and the $150 million Spotify lawsuit, and Lemmy’s passing. Then we talk about our anticipated 2016 releases, and we go into our usual discussion sessions where we talk about metal covers of non-metal songs or older metal songs, lyrical themes (political versus emotional), and more. We also decided to turn the end-of-cast video game/movie/TV chat into a regular thing!
