If you like songs about cheating and getting caught in the...act of mutually committing infidelity you'll love this timeless ode to your favorite beachside cocktail.

As one narcissistic idiot leaves us, another swoops in to write a song about that first guy that he releases *after* said person loses their reelection campaign.

The Songtopsy Report ·

2021/01/05

Former Five Finger Death Punch drummer Jeremy Spencer made the next logical career move after leaving his former band; dress up like satan, call himself "Devil Daddy," and make an industrial metal band called "Psychosexual" that's all about how much he looooves spanking. Oh, and also film some softcore horror porn on the side. We dissect "Let the Sin Begin" on this week's episode and boy do we wish it didn't. Review/follow us on Podchaser! We'd definitely not spank you if you did:

It's a double dissection this week! We dive into the fresh controversy that The Pogues' Christmas classic has been receiving recently with some of its more colorful lyrics, as well as the brand spankin' new Jon Bon Jovi cover of the song that is apparently so blasphemous that Mike can scarcely contain his rage.

Ep 154: "Joel the Lump of Coal" by The Killers

The Songtopsy Report ·

2020/12/15

When The Killers aren't busy coming out of their cage and feeling just fine they can be frequently found writing nihilistic Christmas songs, the bleakest of which we dissect on this week's Christmas-themed episode. Does this Christmas fable in song form have any deeper meaning? Does a young Donald Trump appear at one point? WHO IS MR. BRIGHTSIDE? At least two of those questions WILL be answered on this week's episode! Follow us on the World Wide Web! Facebook: https://bit.ly/2VxGjkj Instagram:

On our first Christmas episode of 2020 we revisit the Biebs and his, shall we say, "unique reimagining" of the timeless Christmas song "The Little Drummer Boy."

Does Bieber claim he's actually god? all these questions are answered on this week's episode. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Do you like gross Death Metal lyrics grunted by a 52 year pot head who's voice sounds like a loony toons character?

The Songtopsy Report ·

2020/10/20

"The Addams Family" film came out in 1991, and what artist was bigger that year than the untouchable MC Hammer himself?

2020/10/13

We dive in to the deepest of deep cuts on this week's spoOoOoky episode all about the themes to some of your favorite B and C level slasher movies. Whether it's creatively titled "Maniac Cop Rap," the jarring juxtaposition of the song "Fall Break," or the demented funhouse of "The Chucky Song," one thing is definitely for certain; none of these musicians went on to do anything afterward.

The Songtopsy Report ·

2020/10/06

We swear this title isn't clickbait. We got our hands on one of the RAREST pieces of Scientology music ever recorded, in which a bunch of high ranking musicians in the church all recite L Ron Hubbard propaganda; but to upbeat, adult contemporary background music! From Issac Hayes to Chick Corea, this potential recruitment attempt of an album has long since been buried by history, but we dig it up and dissect it on this week's thetan-clearing episode.

Steve leads Mike on another dissection of bad, bizarre and noteworthy history, this time all about the history of all of the jaw-dropping things Coke and Pepsi have done to assert their dominance as the premiere soda brand. Do you know which brand was founded by a confederate soldier? Or which one led to riots that led to death by grenades? Or which one once had the 6TH LARGEST MILITARY STOCKPILE IN THE WORLD???
