PODCAST

The Department of Metal Antiquities

As a musical genre, heavy metal (and all it"s sub-genres) has only existed for 50 years, but in that time there have been a great many happenings that we have collectively forgotten. In this podcast Nik Cameron and Duncan Evans will be going through albums, concerts, etc in a vain glorious attempt to remember it all. We contextualize the subject and then we take it track by track. In the end, we"ll tell you if you should spin it or bin it.
