I’m on the ‘Rock and/or Roll’ podcast again this week. Talking 70’s metal.
Holy crud two weeks in a row. This time it’s BJ, Martin Popoff and me.
Here is the lowdown:
ROCK AND/OR ROLL 019 – HEAVY SEVENTIES PART 1
What exactly does “heavy” mean? Who were the earliest, heaviest bands and how did their particular brand of rock and roll evolve over the course of the seventies, culminating in a new genre called “heavy metal” that exploded in the late seventies and into the eighties? On the next two episodes of the podcast BJ and his guests Martin Popoff (Part 1 only) and Fistful of Dave will attempt to answer these questions while sharing with you some of the very heaviest music of the seventies.
You can listen right here
I suggest you check out all the Rock an/or Roll podscasts because they are great.
Check out the Rock and/or Roll website too.
Don’t know who Martin Popoff is? He writes shitloads of books about heavy metal.
Check out his books
also on iTunes
Want to hear me suck the air out of a room when I say “Peter Criss is a terrible drummer”?
So my friend BJ does this podcast called Rock and/or Roll. His knowledge of the subject is unbelievable. If you want to know about glam, power-pop, glam metal, rock, hard rock, nwobhm it is well worth your time to check out.
He asked me to join in. As I love my own opinions and I love to talk, I jumped at the chance. Must have not been to big of a pain in the ass as I back for more. It was a split podcast with the super nice guys from PodKISSt.
Here is an overview about the episode:
PODKISST AND/OR ROLL – THE GREAT LOST KISS ALBUM OF 1978
Every year between 1974 and 1985 KISS released at least one studio album except for, technically, 1978. That year saw the release of the four solo albums, one by each member of the band, but no real KISS album. On this crossover event, which is an episode of both the PodKISSt and Rock and/or Roll, a quintet of obsessive KISS fans have the gall to rewrite KISStory by asking themselves WHAT IF??? What if, in 1978, instead of releasing the four solo albums, the four members of KISS had pooled their resources and made a truly great KISS album? Imagine that, between Love Gun and Dynasty… Read The Rest >

UPDATE: I called Peter Criss ‘horrible’ not ‘terrible’.
Comic Books: Paul Pope’s Battling Boy looks great.
Getting the itch for comic books again. After getting the Hilda series to read for my son, I’m reinvigorated.
Paul Pope’s Battling Boy seems right up my alley. Monsters, supernatural, fun and a little weird. Check out the preview at Boing Boing. Here is a review from Boing Boing.
