We'll be back next week to burn this mother down. Tell your friends. Especially the weak-willed ones looking to find a new religion. We'll take good care of 'em.

Episode #9 - 4/30/10 - HeavyFM.02T

HeavyFM comes from MIT. And as such, there are certain qualifications, and we, too, must pass through the hellish gauntlet that is 8.02T - Electromagnetism in TEAL.

Tonight, we salute our fallen brothers, the warriors who have come and gone before us to suffer on the TEAL frontier. With today's generation powering through a test this very night, assuredly with many casualties lying by the wayside, we can only pay homage and fight alongside them. Here we go:

Queensrÿche - Resistance

Dark Tranquillity - Cathode Ray Sunshine
Fear Factory - Self Bias Resistor

Iron Savior - H. M. Powered Man
Lacuna Coil - A Current Obsession

Angra - Deus le Volt! / Spread Your Fire
Black Label Society - Electric Hellfire

Testament - Electric Crown
Judas Priest - The Hellion / Electric Eye

Chrome Division - Serial Killer
Crimson Death - Parallel World

Manowar - The Power

Episode #8 - 4/23/10

"It is a characteristic of all movements and crusades that the psychopathic element rises to the top." - Robert Lindner

Deus le Volt!* It was good enough in 1095, and it's good enough today. Anything for a nice bloody Holy War. Metal waxes philosophical, especially about religion, and especially about war.

I wonder if there's enough intersecting material for a show? If only...

Manowar - Holy War

Godgory - Holy War
Dragonland - Holy War

Detente - Holy War**
Blind Guardian - Another Holy War

Megadeth - Holy Wars... The Punishment Due
Children of Bodom - If You Want Peace... Prepare For War

Epica - The Last Crusade [A New Age Dawns, Pt. 1]
Star One - Intergalactic Space Crusaders

Symphony X - The Walls of Babylon

Damnation, religion, salvation, fire and steel!

*Amazingly, there simply wasn't room for Angra's "Deus Le Volt/Spread Your Fire" leadoff combo from their Temple of Shadows album!

**We incorrectly reported this track as "Holy Wars" - thankfully, fate intervened in our own divine struggle, and Detente's song is, in fact, just called "Holy War"

Episode #6 - 4/9/10

Hey stupid, we brought you some stuff!

Tonight we're just winging it, so we threw together some solid tracks that didn't necessarily have a place anywhere else. We also had a brief dedication to my dad, who, as Joey Demaio would say, was recently "reBORN in the fires of TRUE. HEAVY. METAL!" after I took him to a Sonata Arctica show.

Rock on, old man!

Here's the list:

Iced Earth - Last December

Acid Bath - The Mortician's Flame
Poisonblack - Love Infernal

Luna Mortis - Ruin
Opeth - To Rid the Disease

Mercyful Fate - Curse of the Pharaohs
Steel Attack - Dreaming

Sonata Arctica - Don't Say A Word (Live)

Primal Fear - Fighting the Darkness / The Darkness / Reprise
