By pure chance, I discovered that there is another album called "SUCKERPUNCH". Just like the Chloe Moriondo album "SUCKERPUNCH" that I reviewed on the show a couple weeks back. And this one was released first! By a very short window of time! Curiosity gets the better of me and I listen to it and... find out that it's mediocre. A pity, because there is one MASSIVE standout track.
An also-ran nu-metal band. They should be more remembered, as they were friends with all the other big nu-metal bands of the time and had a woman on vocals, which was close to unheard of in the genre at the time. So why did time forget this album?
Chloe Moriondo goes hyperpop for one album - and it doesn't work out for her. Against all odds, and at odds with the vibe of the genre, she manages to make a hyperpop album boring. Still, there are some good songs in the tracklist, with one in particular standing head and shoulders above the rest.
The first of many collaborative albums by John Lennon and Yoko Ono. One of the most infamous album covers of the 60s, and for good reason. On this show, we take a listen to the music within - if it can even be called music at all.
Today I listened to an album I discovered at a record store in Indiana that looked goofy as hell and, as it turns out, IS goofy as hell. And it's surprisingly well-known! It was a wild ride through one man's struggles with mental illness and anticipating the people from the funny farm coming to take him away (ha-haaa).
Did you know that the guys who made the "Oh Yeah" song have other songs? Well, they do, and they're an actual band. They're called Yello, and today we listen to some cuts from their greatest hits album.
The Scumbag Files returns to the air after a 4-month break. We celebrate this return with a look back to the show's roots by checking out a video compilation of "Divorced Dad Anthems" from Youtube.
