Radioactive Metal ·

2026/03/29

The nominees for this years Rock n Roll Hall of Fame hopefuls was recently released. Of course, we're squarely behind the mighty Iron Maiden getting their log overdue accolades. But there's also a number of other artists that both nod and shake our heads. So this week we go through the list and play our most comprehensive game of "Should and Will" yet. Namely who we think should go in. And who we think will get the honors this year. Who are your picks? Musically, we crank some new and used from

Episode 873: Pretty Pictures

2026/03/16

Heavy Metallers have traditionally been complete package type people. The tunes rule, of course. But we also enjoy the physical product as a whole. And the album graphics could serve two purposes: for both art and/or promotion. And this week we go deep into the discussion. How 'bout for you. Do the album covers make or break a record for you? In our "News, Views and Tunes", we go over Seb Bach as the new (live) Twisted Sister vocalist and we hit up a local record con. Musically, we crank some Dark

Episode 872: Alice Sweet Alice

Radioactive Metal ·

2026/03/15

The '86 Alice Cooper album "Constrictor" is a rather important effort. This album #17 (!) is a comeback album of sorts for Cooper. The shock rocker spent the 80s up to this point battling demons which resulted in some terrible records. This record showcased a clean, reinvigorated Alice. And the result was a masterpiece. And as for RAM, this album was basically our starting point in our Alice fandom. So this week we're giving this platter our "40th Anniversary Album Spotlight Series" treatment. We

Episode 871: Tony Bloody Tony

Radioactive Metal ·

2026/03/09

1986 was an interesting year in the Black Sabbath camp. Fan interest was waning. Bands that Sabbath influenced were leaving them in the dust. And the band's 12th album "Seventh Star" wasn't doing them any favors. At this point, Sabbath was basically the Tony Iommi Project and the Sabbath sound was abandoned for something a little more 80s friendly. So this week we decided to tackle this forgotten record in our "40th Anniversary Album Spotlight Series". We go into everything surrounding the band at

Episode 870: The RSD List

Radioactive Metal ·

2026/02/25

Record Store Day is once again on the horizon. RSD is easily one of our fave days of the year. And part of the countdown is the release of the RSD list of special releases. So as is tradition around here we like to go over the list "on the air" and share which records are on our own (want) list. Go to www.recordstoreday.com and make your own picks. Musically, we crank some new and used from Obituary, Visigoth, In Defense, Delilah Bon, Death Dealer, Thron, Deliverance (UK) and we introduce Norwegian

Episode 869: Ranked You To Deth

Radioactive Metal ·

2026/02/22

The verdict is in! The new self titled Megadeth album has found a regular spot on our stereos. And it's awesome! If this record is indeed the swan song for Dave and the Boyz, they can go out with their heads held high and their Horns in the air. This week we decided to take a cue from the amazing "High Fidelity" flick and share our Top 5 Megadeth albums from their vast discography. And where exactly this new record fits it, if at all. Always makes for a great conversation. In our "News, Views and

Episode 868: The Real Slaughter, Damitt!!

Radioactive Metal ·

2026/02/03

1,2 F You! The crushing debut from the Canadian thrashers Slaughter is an all fave around the RAM office. "Strappado" is also the one of the most influential albums in the Death Metal underground. And, this platter of splatter is celebrating its fourth decade (!) of existence this year. So this week we're featuring it in our "40th Anniversary Album Spotlight Series". We do a track by track deep dive. Share how we first discovered the mighty Slaughter. And try to straighten out the whole monicker

Episode 867: All The Strange Things

Radioactive Metal ·

2026/02/02

We're a little late off the mark. But we finally go the amazing "Stranger Things" series in the books. So this week we decided to discuss all the strange goin-ons in Hawkins. Apart from the usual thoughts about the show, we discuss the power of music, the Kate Bush fandom in Metaldom, share our own trials and tribulations from high school and ask the question - "Eddie Munson - Maiden or Metallica?" Musically, we crank some tunes we feel Eddie would've given The Horns to including Angel Witch, Razor,

Episode 866: 1986...66

Radioactive Metal ·

2026/01/20

1986 was an absolute barnburner of a year. Numerous, now veteran bands and artists hit the garage for the first time. So many now classic albums hit the racks then onto our turntables and ghetto blasters. And there were new stories that rocked all of Metaldom. As well, this year, believe it or not, 1986 turns 40 years young. So as is tradition 'round here, we're doing a deep dive into this banner year. So for the young'ens, this will be quite educational. For the veterans, this will be an awesome

Radioactive Metal ·

2026/01/13

It's that time again! 2025 is in the books. So around here that means it's time for our annual Rammy Awards! To our newer listeners hopping aboard this year, there are the Radioactive Metal version of the Grammy Awards. You know, R.A.M...Rammies...Grammies. We're so clever. To the winners, sorry, there's no trophy or place in Metaldom infamy. We basically kick back and share our faves of '25 in the categories that mean the most to Metalheads. Best Band, Album, Live a.o. Aswell, we make our

Episode 864: Lemmy-ized

Radioactive Metal ·

2026/01/13

Over the years, the legendary Motorhead has been one of the most covered artists in all of Metaldom. But as beloved and influential as they are, Lemmy and The Boys are music fans too. So Motorhead has done their fair share of covers as well. Recently, we celebrated Lemmy's Bday and mourned his passing on the 10th anniversary. So this week we decided to discuss our favorite Motorheaderized cover songs. There are some absolute bangers! In our News, Views and Tunes, we discuss some Henry Rollins spoken

Episode 863: Rest In Power

Radioactive Metal ·

2025/12/30

Obviously, we love doing this show. For so many awesome reasons. One of our negative duties we take upon ourselves is the announcements and dedications for those of our fallen Metal comrades. Now its Year's End and we decided we wanted to dedicate this episode saying "Horns Up" for those who left us. Its a tough listen but well worth it. In our "News, Views and Tunes", we discuss vinyl reissues and the Spotify "scrapping" incident. Musically, we crank some Blitzkrieg, Mortician, Necrophagia, Heavy

Episode 862: The Pen Is Mightier

Radioactive Metal ·

2025/12/23

Metal Forces magazine, the amazing UK tome, is a fave of ours from our teens. They covered all the great underground HM, Thrash/Death and Hardcore outfits. One of their awesome features was the "Penbangers" section. Basically, the pen pal section looking for communication with other readers via the written letter. Some of the ads were pretty entertaining themselves. So this week we figured we'd read some of them courtesy of the www.sendbackmystamps.com websites. You'll laugh, you'll cry. You take a

Episode 861: Corrosive

Radioactive Metal ·

2025/12/16

Corrosion Of Conformity's second full lengther "Animosity" was a benchmark effort. The C.O.C. of today is very different from forty years ago. Along with contemporaries like D.R.I. and The Accused, the then trio helped spearhead the "crossover" scene fans take for granted today. This year this amazing record also turns forty (!). So this week we're featuring it in our "40th Anniversary Album Spotlight Series". We go over the Pushead artwork. Do a track by track deep dive. And share the importance

Episode 860: What's In A Meme?

Radioactive Metal ·

2025/12/09

Whenever you're on social media, you get bombarded with memes. A lot of them can be quite annoying. While others like to pose questions and make you think. So lately we've been gathering some questions related to our beloved genre and are taking this opportunity to share our thoughts. Makes for great conversation. Be sure to play along too. In our "News, Views and Tunes", we discuss the (in)famous "WKRP in Cincinnati" Turkey Drop episode. And Sharon Osbourne's creative response to Roger Waters

Episode 859: RSD: Black Friday

Radioactive Metal ·

2025/11/28

It's Black Friday! Around here we're really not to concerned about the whole rigamorole. Standing in line at 6am with a bunch of normies for a cheap toaster just isn't our idea of a good time. But Record Store Day is in on it. That's where we come in. It's tradition here at RAM that every RSD and RSD: Black Friday that we go over the list of special releases and share our Most Wanted list. Which records are you picking up? In our "News, Views and Tunes", we discuss the amazing "Good Boy" flick and

John Connor is pissed! Now more than ever the use of A.I. is prevalent in today's society. And it's reared it's ugly head into Metaldom!

Episode 857: Music For Connoisseurs

Radioactive Metal ·

2025/11/25

With every pop culture fandom, there are two kinds. You have the casual fan. and you have the "connoisseur". A connoisseur is defined as a person with expert knowledge and appreciation for a subject. And Metaldom has their share. As well, every more established band has these two "types" of fans. So this week we're choosing artists and which efforts from their discography Joe and Jane Average would choose. And which records the more discerning fans would choose i.e. The "Black" album or..."Kill 'Em

Episode 856: That's The Spirit

Radioactive Metal ·

2025/11/25

We've all seen those "Spirit of Halloween" costume memes. Where the creators take a current event or public figure making headlines and create a mock costume. One of the most recent really hit close to home: The Record Collector. Along with a stereotypical picture, there are 5 points that traditionally make up a serious record collector. And some of these had us saying "Hey! That's us!" So if confession is good for the soul then we feel amazing this week. How many of these fit you? In our "News,
