Cavalera Conspiracy - Schizophrenia - Album Review

Shit Talk Reviews ·

2024/07/12

This episode the Shit Talk triumvirate yak about Schizophrenia, the latest album from Cavalera Conspiracy. Of course, as the majority of the content on the record was first released in 1987 by Sepultura, one could be forgiven for saying it’s technically a Sepultura album. In any case, the Brothers Cavalera have dropped a freshly re-recorded version that includes two new tracks written by Max and it’s a stunner. Derek sets himself up for a beatdown by either Rhianna or Max’s lovely wife G...

Wheel - Charismatic Leaders - Podcast Album Review

Shit Talk Reviews ·

2024/06/18

This time around Derek got progged over the head. And he liked it! Charismatic Leaders is the third release from Finland’s progmetal gurus Wheel. As the resident Shit Talk prog guy, John wanted to bring it to the table. The album is great and is covered with just enough frosting for Derek (the resident thrash guy) to dig it too; the consensus is that if you dig the metal but are new to the progressive side of things, you might dig this as well.https://www.shittalkreviews.com ...

Kerry King - From Hell I Rise - Album Review

Shit Talk Reviews ·

2024/06/13

John and Derek sat down this time around to do the Devil’s Work. (Or rather, to chat about Kerry King’s new album From Hell I Rise.) It’s all Kerry King, but with enough touches of the Slayer to keep the diehard fans into it. It’s got so much power that Derek wants to run back to the woods in Vermont and start throwing beer kegs around if that’s any indication… It’s a strong record and definitely worth checking out.

Ohhh boy… The Shit Talk Reviews crew had to talk about Motley Crue’s latest single Dogs Of War. Obviously the guys all have their own opinion about the track, but the conversation seems to leave more questions than answers. For instance, did the band write track or was it composed by the great wizard behind the AI curtain? We’ll all find out at some point, but for now, have a hang with the yahoos as they get all worked up. The video is up now on YouTube and will be on all the streaming p...
