  Speaker 2: the podcast.
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: Welcome to Disgraceland, the after Party. Welcome to the Disgraceland
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: bonus episode, a little thing we'd like to call the
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: after Party. This is the show after the show, the
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: party after the party, the bridge to get you from
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: one full episode of Disgraceland to the other, the backyard
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: to dig into the dirt. On this bonus episode, we
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: are talking about Metallica and the highest selling artists of
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: all time. We begin our double down into suspicious celebrity
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: debts and of course your voicemails, texts and more, and
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: as always.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: A whole lot of rosie disc goes. Let's get into it.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: Metallica is the most successful heavy metal band of all time,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: but when all is said and done, they might end
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: up being the most successful band of all time, which
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: is very hard to appreciate if you're of a certain
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: age like I am. Metallica are of course as mainstream
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: as mainstream can be. They packed stadiums. They are celebrated
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: by fans from multiple generations. Parents, of course, bring their
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: kids to the shows. Teenagers nowadays willingly rock the Metallica
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: logo on their T shirts and backpacks, just like they
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: did back in the eighties and the nineties. Metallica was
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: prominently featured a couple of years back on Stranger Things,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: one of the buzziest zeitgeisty TV shows of the past
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: couple of decades. Metallica are a mainstream institution, not just
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: in America but all over the world. On the list
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: of the top twenty best selling heavy metal albums of
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: all time, as compiled by This Day in Metal blog,
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: which cites the RIAA data, the Recording Industry Association of America.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: That list, again, of the top twenty best selling heavy
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: metal albums of all time, there are seven Metallica albums,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: and five of the top six positions on that list
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: are occupied by Metallica albums. It's a fascinating list for
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: metal and non metal heads alike, and I want to
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: get into it just a little bit, a little bit
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: here to set up the point I'm trying to make,
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: so in reversed order, the list number twenty slip Knot
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: self titled album, which I got to admit I'm not
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: a big Slipknot fan. I never was, so this came
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: as kind of a surprise to me. And then Pantera's
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: Vulgar Display of Power, which is at nineteen. This seems
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: low to me. I thought this record was a huge seller.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: I would have thought Vulgar Display of Power would have
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: been Pantera's best selling album.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: More on that in a bit.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Black Sabbath's Master of Reality is number eighteen, also kind
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: of a surprise. But then again, it's hard for me
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: to properly place Sabbath on any commercial lisk, even how
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: despised they were by critics during the seventies, So the
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: context is very weird with this band for me, despite
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: their influence and just how fucking amazing nineteen seventies Ozzy
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Osbourne era Black Sabbath is Number seventeen is Deep Purple's
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: machine Head, which I totally don't get, mainly because I
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: never really got into Deep Purple. I don't even really
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: understand their significance in the heavy metal genre. I know
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: people ride hard for them, I know they have significance,
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: but again it's sort it sort of escaped me for
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: whatever reason. That's my own thing. I'm not dising the
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: band at all. It's my own ignorance. Number sixteen is
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Judas Priests Screaming for Vengeance. This one seems like it's
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: slotted in the right spot. Number fifteen is Holy Diver
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: by Dio. This seems way too high. I can't believe
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: this album has sold more than the aforementioned efforts by Priest,
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: by Sabbath by Pantera, especially kind of a shocker here.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: Number fourteen is Cowboys from Hell by Pantera. Now also
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: a surprise, mainly because I would have thought the vulgar
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: display of power would have sold more than Cowboys from Hell. Nonetheless,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: this is a better record, and I'm happy to see
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: that the market agrees with me here and that it's
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: higher on the list. Number thirteen megashocker for me. Megadeaths
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: countdown to Extinction, Man, I totally underestimate Metallica's ex band
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: member Dave Mustang's Megadeath. This album went double platinum all
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: the way back in nineteen ninety four, after it only
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: been released for two years or it came out in
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: nineteen ninety two. The middle of nineteen ninety two, so
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: really just a year and a half I think before
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: it went double platinum, it almost entered the chart at
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: number one. Think of that Megadath entering the Billboard, not
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: like the hard rock chart or the met I don't
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: even think there is a metal chart. Maybe there is,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: I don't know, but I don't think there was back
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: then in the nineties. But just imagine, like Megadeths countdown
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: to extinction, just any Megadeth album entering at the number
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: one slot, which it came so close to doing, but
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: it was kept held down at number two by Billy
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: Ray Cyrus, who of course was huge back at the time.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: My mind is blown by this one.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: It's it's it's as baffling to me, this Megadeth album
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: selling so much as the next album on this list
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: in the number twelve slot, which is Tools. Forgive me
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: tool fans if I pronounce this the wrong way. The
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: name of the album is Lateralists. That's how you say this.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: I'm sure Lateralists. Okay, come at me, tool fans. This
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: is an album I've never even I've never heard okay,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: which is awful to say, man, tool or a real band.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: I get that.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: But it went trip.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: This this album's gone triple platinum. Okay, that didn't go
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: It didn't go triple platinum until twenty twenty one, but
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: unlike Megadeths Countdown to Extinction, this Tool album did debut
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: at number one. I just do not get this. I mean,
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: Tool is one of those bands that just seems like
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: only dudes like I mean, do women like Tool? If
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: there are any women out there who like Tool, right
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: to me, please and tell me why you like Tool.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: I want to understand. I mean, I know why I
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: like Tool. There's actual Tool records that I like. And
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: I know now I'm going to catch a lot of
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: shit from some people because Tools one of these bands
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: that is incredibly divisive, Like people just think they're incredibly
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: lame or their way into them. I kind of straddle
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: the fence. I guess I'm rare. I was into Tool
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: when they came out. I saw them on purpose a
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: couple of times, but to me, they just seem to
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: have such limited appeal despite how good they may be.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: It's just incredible. I'm not shitting on Tool. Like I said,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: I like Tool. I've seen them, but they're quirky as fuck,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: and it's hard for me to see or understand how
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: they have sold so many records. It makes me happy
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: that they have so Yeah, score one for the weirdos.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: This is good.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: Next up in the number eleven slot is Metallica's Reload,
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: then another Tool album at ten, Enema Rob Zombie's hell
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: Billy Deluxe at number nine. In the list of top
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: selling heavy metal albums, Tools Undertow another triple platinum seller,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: Unbelievable Tool I had no idea. That's at number eight,
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: and then from here on out the list is pretty
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: much owned by Metallica, with one exception. At number seven
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: is Kill Them All, and then a brief departure here
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: from Metallica at number six, Black Sabbaths Paranoid pops up,
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: but then it's straight Bay Area thrash from here on out.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: Five Metallica's Load, which is the one with the ridiculous
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: record cover. I'm not suggesting, by the way, that these
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: are Bay Area thrash albums. I'm referring, obviously to the
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: Bay Area roots of Metallica number four, Master of Puppet's
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: Great Album cover. In contrast, of course, to Metallica's Load,
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: number three, Ride the Lightning number two, and Justice for
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: All and number one, of course is Metallica's self titled
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: album also known as the Black Album. So Metallica basically
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: owns the top twenty list of highest selling metal albums,
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: which isn't surprising. They sold a total of one hundred
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: and seventy five million albums, which is a shit ton
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: of records. But where does that put Metallica on the
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: list of highest selling musical artists of all time? And
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: this is where it starts to get interesting for me. So,
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: with one hundred and seventy five million albums sold, Metallica
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: doesn't even crack the top ten list of best selling
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: artists of all time. The Beatles number one, Michael Jackson
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: number two, Elvis Presley three, Elton John four, Madonna five,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: Queen six, Led Zeppelin seven, Rihanna at eight, Rihanna, who
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: had Rihanna at eight? I had no fucking idea? Pink
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: Floyd at nine, Rolling Stones at ten. Metallica's one hundred
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: and seventy five million albums sold puts some somewhere between
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: AC DC and Beyonce in the number fifteen slot, ahead
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: of the Eagles, ahead of Garth Brooks and Britney Spears,
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: but behind Taylor Swift, behind Whitney Houston, behind Mariah Carey,
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: behind eminem Now if you eliminate solo artists from our
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: equation here, and you look at just the top selling bands,
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: the top selling groups. Okay, Metallica's influence, their significance, I
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: should say, in rock history, interest in commercial music history,
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: it becomes much more illuminating. The Beatles, of course, are
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: the top selling band of all times. Six hundred million
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: estimated albums sold. I don't even know how the kin
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: they come up with that number, because I mean Beatles
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: albums are I mean, between the European versions, the American versions,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: the collections, I mean, there's so much.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: But again, it's just the.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Number we got to go by. We got to go
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: by the numbers here. Six hundred million is what is
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: estimated to have been sold by the Beatles. No one's
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: ever going to touch that. But they are followed by Queen,
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: and the Queen slot on this list is questionable. I
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: found a lot of lists that don't even have Queen
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: in the top ten, and I think the reason the
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: list that I'm going with here includes Queen, and I've
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: seen others that include Queen as well, is because Queen
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: has had massive sales in the last few years due
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: to the biopic that came out with Robbie Malick, and
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: I think also Queen's one of these one of these
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: classic rock bands that has really benefited from social media,
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: has really benefited from music licensing in the last decade alone,
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: So I think they have sort of inserted themselves into
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: this conversation. But I'm sort of discounting them because it's
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: not one hundred percent solid. Led Zeppelin is third here, okay,
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: of top selling bands, Beatles, Queen, led Zeppelin, Okay, then
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: Pink Floyd, then the Rolling Stones, and then Metallica. Metallica
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: are solidly on the top ten list of highest selling
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: bands of all time when it comes to record sales,
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: and they're nearing the top five, which if you take
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: Queen out, they're in the top five.
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: But I'm not gonna to do that.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Unbelievable to think of, Okay, for Metallica, a band that
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: was so niche when they started, you got to think,
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: you know, when the Beatles start, when Queen starts, when
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: led Zeppelin starts, when Pink Floyd starts, when the Rolling
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: Stones start, their ambitions, their aspirations are almost solely commercial. Okay,
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: they are just gunning for the charts at the time.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: All Right, Everything they were doing in terms of how
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: they were being marketed and how they were being promoted
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: was was geared towards selling records, and the same cannot
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: be said for Metallica. Metallica were a niche band. They
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: were a subgenre of a subgenre of a subgenre.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: In this week's full episode on Metallica, we talk about
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: how the band spoke almost exclusively to burnouts and wasteoids, counterculture,
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: thrash metal heads like this band. Okay, again, a subgenre
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: of a subgenre of a subgenre. They were thrashed, which
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: was a subgenre of heavy metal, which was a subgenre
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: of hard rock, which was the subgenre of rock and roll.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: You know, when Metallica's first albums came out, they were
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: on an indie label. They were not at all, They
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: weren't making videos, they weren't even thinking about FM airplay
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: at the time. No one and I mean no one
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: back in the nineteen eighties saw Metallica's world dominance coming.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: If they tell you now that they did, they're lying,
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: or their name is Noster Damas. And here's the reason why.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Because every single reason why Metallica did anything that remotely
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: smacked the commercialism, their fans skewered them, okay, but nonetheless
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: Metallica kept getting bigger and bigger and bigger, and to
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: this day they are still growing. The rule is that, yeah,
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: you get to make your move to sell out, and
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: it can work and you can grab new audience, but
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: you're ultimately going to lose more than you gain in
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: the end. Your new mainstream fans, they're eventually going to
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: abandon you, and the original fan that you alienated for
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: commercial success will never come back. But that's not what
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: happened with Metallica, and that's because their quote unquote sellout
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: moves weren't actually sellout moves at all. They were just
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: a reflection of who the band was at the time.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: When the band dared to slow down parts of their
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: songs on Ride the Lightning and Master Puppets to forego
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: speed for Groove, a part of their fan base claimed
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: that they were selling out when they made a video
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: for their song one from that Injustice for All album,
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: a massive record right, A huge portion of their fan
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: base at that time was horrified at their beloved thrash
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: fans blatant commercialism. Metallica made a music video and for
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: a Ballad. Nonetheless all right, people were pissed. And then
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: on the Black Album when they brought in Motley crue
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: In bon Jovi's producer, Bob Rock, so many fans bailed
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: and never came back. I was almost one of them.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: But Metallica never bailed. They kept doing exactly what they
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: wanted to do, and slowly but surely, even after the
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: explosive worldwide success of the Black Album, in part directly
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: because Bob Rock's production and influence on the band's songwriting,
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: Metallica grew and grew and grew, and like I said,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: they're still growing forty five years into their career, with
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: no signs of slowing down. They made a record with
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: Lou Fucking Reed that people hated. Almost everyone who heard
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: it shit on this record. Even people who haven't heard
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: the record still shit on the record. Look at the
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: comment section of the Metallica post that has made on Instagram.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: It's ridiculous, but it doesn't matter. Okay. Metallica has persevered.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: They still sound great, they still look great. They're in
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: their sixties, but they're healthy. The heavy metal hedonism is
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: in their past. They seem hell bent on continuing to
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: move forward like that insatiable, great white shark of an
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: institution that they turned themselves into. If Metallica has sold out,
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: Metallica has sold out in the best possible way, by
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: their own accords, so I guess it wasn't really selling
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: out at all. The result was one hundred and seventy
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: five million albums sold and counting. Led Zeppelin has sold
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: three hundred million albums, but yet to remember, led Zeppelin
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: started selling out albums twelve years before Metallica did. Before
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: all is said and done, might Metallica catch up to
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: led Zeppelin in sales? Might they catch up to Queen?
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: If that Queen number is even correct? I don't know.
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: But if they don't stop, and they keep doing what
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: they've always done, if we wake up twenty years from
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: now and Metallica is the rolling Stones of our generation,
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: they're still on stage. They're still selling out stadiums, which,
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: frankly I can see happening. I don't see them slowing down.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: I think they got a chance. Maybe, I don't know.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: Who knows one hundred and seventy five million, right, who
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: knows they're still packing out stadiums?
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: Man, guys, this is nuts.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: It's crazy and it's all because they've done whatever the
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: hell they've wanted to do, and that spirit of doing
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: whatever the hell they want is deeply ingrained in Metallica,
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: going all the way back, and of course best represented
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: by original bassis Cliff Burton, who is the folks of
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: this week's full episode on Metallica, which I hope you
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: check out if you have not already. Next week's episode
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: of Disgraceland is on actress Brittany Murphy and her highly
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: suspicious cause of death. And as you go into that
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: episode and they're listening to it and you start to
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: hear about how Britney Murphy supposedly died, I want you
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: guys to think about the deaths of other entertainers that
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: strike you as false, that are suspicious. There are a
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: lot we talked about this, of course with the Marilyn
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: Monroe episodes. I'm doubling down on it here because these
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: the facts around Britney Murphy's death are just highly suspicious,
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: and I want to know what you guys think. They
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: don't get as much play historically, of course as Marilyn Monroe,
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: because Britney Murphy wasn't as big of an entertainer and
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: never will be. But I want to hear from you guys.
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: Which celebrity causes of death strike you as most suspicious?
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: Which celebrity causes of death are you calling bullshit on?
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: Call me at six one seven nine oh six six
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: six three eight to let me know, Lead me a voicemail,
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: send me a text, hit me up on the socials
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: at disgracelam pod.
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: And I will be back in a flash.
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: Okay. With Cliffferton's death at such a young age. Being
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: the folks of this week's Metallica episode, we asked the
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: question which modern artists can't you afford to lose and why?
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: And what do they provide for you that makes them
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: so indispensable. Here are some of your answers.
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: I just listen to the Metallica episodes and an artist
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: that I just can't live without today is Jason Isbell.
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: I don't know. It must have been about ten years ago.
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: I accidentally played the song Live Oak from his Southeastern album,
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: and just by accident. After that, I went back and
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: I listened to the entire album then again on repeat,
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: over and over again. And after that I had a
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: reason to listen to Americana and country music again. Then
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: after that came the album Something more Than Free, and
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: then the Nashville Sound, then Reunion and now recently Weather Vane,
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: And you know, it just speaks to me. Having listened
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: to Whalen and Willie an old school country for a
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: long time with my dad, I think that's what it
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: takes me back to. And I really appreciate that. So,
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: Jason Isbelt music really really speaks to me. And thank
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: you for the opportunity to talk about it.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: All right, three one oh, thanks for the call. Jason
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: Isbel seems like a good guy. I'm going to check
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: out Live Oak on my drive today. Incidentally, guys, I
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: am still on the road for an extra week here
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: that I did not plan for my family and I
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: took off about five weeks ago.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: Two weeks of it I was a working I was
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: working while we were away, and two weeks of it
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: was a vacation. So I've been kind of quiet. The
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: social has been kind of quiet. In the chat I've
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: been popping in this week. I was supposed to be
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: fully back in. We're supposed to be home. But for
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: those of you on the East coast, you know, there's
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: this massive storm that hit the southeast. Our flights were
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: totally canceled and there were no flights. There were no
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: flights at all that seemed reasonable, that seemed like they
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: were actually going to happen. So we ended up driving
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: down where We've been driving for two days straight, trying
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: to get home, trying to drive around this storm. I'm
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: in a hotel recording this episode right now. I am
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: not in the booth, as you can probably hear some funky.
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: Sounds in the background here.
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: But yeah, looking forward to the final drive today and
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: I will check out Jason, Isabel and guys.
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: I am so looking forward to being back in my
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: studio and just you know.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: Back on the socials, back in the chat making all
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: the content on a day to day basis as I'm
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: used to doing. It's been kind of sporadic, and I'm ready.
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: I'm champing at the bit, as they say, and that's champing,
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: not chomping. Okay, let's check out this voicemail from the
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: eight one to two.
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: Hey, Jake, it's Mike calling back again from the eight
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: one to two. In response to your question about which
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: artists could I not bear the thought of living without.
• 20:22
  Speaker 4: I immediately turned to Bruce Springsteen his body of work
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: is incredible and amazing. He has written music that has
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: fulfilled so many parts of my life and meant so
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: much to me in so many ways during so many
• 20:42
  Speaker 4: different times. And Yeah, I just could not bear the
• 20:46
  Speaker 4: idea of a world without the Boss. Thanks for all
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: that you create, and we'll talk again.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: Rock A rolla, Mike, I hear that. I don't know
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: what we do without Springsteen either. He like Metallica is
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: an institution. Funny, we've never had a Bruce Springsteen Metallica
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: collaboration in any form. There's some pretty awesome footage. I
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: don't know if you guys have seen this in the internet.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: It's it's Bruce playing. I think he's in New Jersey
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: or Manhattan. I think it's Manhattan or it might be
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: La and it's there's footage shot from somebody's cell phone
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: camera back side stage, and it's of all the celebrities
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: watching Bruce play. And this you can see like maybe
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: twelve fifteen people there, and among them is Lars from Metallica,
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: Chris rock Sting, I believe, a couple others. It's really fascinating,
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: but I can see I could see some sort of
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: Bruce Springsteen Metallica collaboration.
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: There's also some interesting.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: News that came out a couple of years ago, now
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: not too long ago, it might have even been less
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: than a couple of years. The Dylan Bob Dylan is
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: a huge Metallica fan, and that he's seen them multiple times,
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: that he just sort of quietly goes to the shows himself.
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: Fucking love that story, man, love it. But thanks your
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: thanks for your text on uh sorry your voicemail, Mike
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: on Bruce. You know, if I'm going to answer my
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: own question here, and this is this is a hard
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: one to answer because if I'm being totally honest, there's
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: not a lot of modern artists that are making music
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: currently right now that speaks to me on such a
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: heavy emotional level where I would just be kind of like, uh,
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: just just annihilated if if they if they passed away.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: I'm not trying to sound hard or crass or anything.
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: That's just the facts of it. I'm not I'm not
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: that moved by by modern music. Not to say I'm
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: not moved by modern musicians. I am, but it's like Metallica.
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: I love Metallic, I've grown up with them. As I've said,
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: you know talked about ad nauseum and and you know,
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: if they passed away James Headfield, god forbid passed away
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: or something like that, I would be really fucked up
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: over it, to be really sad. But it's not like
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: I'd be sitting there going like, h shit, what am
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: I gonna do without that next Metallica record?
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: So I think of it. I think of it in
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: a little different terms. I guess.
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: I think about it in terms of like, who's going
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: to leave the hole? And I guess for me the answer,
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: I mean James Headfield, Yeah, I mean Metallica.
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: That's that they'd leave a huge hole.
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: It would make me feel like I'm like, I'm getting very,
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: very old if Metallica suddenly wasn't here. But I think
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: someone like like perhaps Dave Groll, you know, the guy,
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: he's just he's been with me. I feel like even
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: when he wasn't with me, you know, even before Nirvana,
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: when he when Nirvana hit, one of the first things
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: I was asking myself was who the fuck is this drummer?
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: And then turns out he was in a hardcore band.
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: You know, he's in Scream and it's just like, oh
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: my god, Like he's a DC hardcore kid, and he's
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: in the biggest rock on the planet. And then of
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: course Kurt dies, and then the Food Fighters come and
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: Dave turns himself and the Food Fighters into an institution,
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: and I think, you know, he's sort of been there
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: the whole time with us, and that loss would be
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: a tremendous one for me to take emotionally for reasons
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: that go beyond beyond music.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: So that's my answer.
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: Uh, let's check out a couple of texts here, This
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: one from the nine to four to Zho Jake, the
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: Metallica episode was primo my man. I know you've said
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: in the past that you were done with the multipart episodes,
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: but Metallica could have been one of those candidates for
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: a two or three part deep dive that said the
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: artist that I can't live in the world without is
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: Maynard James Keenan. Yes, the band Tool has an amazing history,
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: a perfect circle is amazing, and Pusifer just turns music
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: in its head. But Maynard as an artist and an
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: individual is like a cult leader. You have to dig
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: into his history from Boston, Michigan, to serving in the army,
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: going to LA to become an interior designer to becoming
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: one of the America's most respected winemakers. Dig in and
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: check him out, best and rock a roll, Casey Casey,
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: great fucking text, man.
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: I'm reading it for obvious reasons.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: It's very apropos for everything we've been talking about in
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: this bonus episode Metallica. Yes, there will be. I can't
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: stop doing.
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: First of all, I.
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: Can't stop doing two part episodes. The problem is, I
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: just got to figure out how to release them. It's
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: it's hard. It's hard to figure out how to release
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: the two part episodes because you kind of get dinged.
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: You don't kind of get you don't get the credit
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: for it. I don't want to go into the details.
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: But anyhow, this Cliff Burton, this is really a Cliff
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: Burton episode. And there's so much of Metallica's history that
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: I want to dive into research wise and I want
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: to bring to you guys. So there will be more
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: Metallica episode episodes, at least in a second perhaps the third. Okay,
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: on tool, thank you you know.
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: I knew. I knew Maynard has a Boston connection. I
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: believe he.
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: Lives in the same neighborhood I lived in at a
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: different time in Davis Square, Summerville. I could be wrong.
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: That was a long long time ago. When I saw
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: a Tool in Boston years ago. I remember him specifically
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: cutting down Somerville residents, which I thought was hysterical at
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: the time. A lot of people didn't think it was funny.
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: I of course did.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: I will look. I got to get into a tool,
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: I got to get into.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: The history of tool. I got to find an angle
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: in to do a tool story. That's that's my takeaway
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: from the engagement this week. So I appreciate this one
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: nine to four oh three oh six types in Hey
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: heavy Metal Parking Lot. Yes, back in the weird era
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: between the death of video rentals and before streaming, I
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: rented through the mail at DVD of this show and
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: there was a bonus doc where they found some of
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: the iconic concertgoers. I wish I could find it again anyway.
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: Love the podcast. It's like listening to one of my
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: friends in the garage, chewing on wild pop culture.
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: Moments in our lives.
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: Keep on being rad from Blondie, Blondie, you got It,
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: three oh six, you got it? Great text. Appreciate it,
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: Davis writes, and Hey Jake. It's Davis from the five
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: to one four. I've been an All Access members since
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: day one and I love every minute. How about offering
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: many episodes to us members. I like the idea of
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: a five to ten minute episodes of specific events in
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: music history. That way, you don't have to tell a
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: full story. You just could talk about a specific event.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: It's particularly disgraceful.
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: Sounds fun to me.
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: Take it easy, my man, rock and roll at Davis.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: Great text, man, great idea. I've been chewing on something
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: that's kind of similar to that, and this kind of
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: gives me, gives me some more color and more context
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: to continue to kind of roll this idea around in
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: my head. Appreciate you. Appreciate the All Access members. Guys,
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: you want to become an All Access member like Davis.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: What he's referring to is is this All Access member
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: club we have. I talk about it every week. It's
• 27:41

• 27:46
  Speaker 1: You're going to get a free episode every week, and
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: some other goodies as well. Trying to figure out how
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: to make this more valuable for you, guys, For you
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: all Access members, trying to figure out if what we
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: are offering is valuable enough for you, if perhaps we
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: should be doing something else. I'm not sure that's what
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: Davis is referring to. Okay, you can also hit us
• 28:04

• 28:14
  Speaker 1: of course is answering this question to what artists can't
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: you live without? And I bring this up because I
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: was shocked at Dio's place on the list of top
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: selling albums of all time and in the Instagram post
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: I did on Cliff it was either the real I
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: posted on Cliff Burton yesterday or it was the Metallica
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: just the straight post and the grid. Someone had made

  Speaker 1: I like this one. A couple after parties ago, we
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: were talking about our formative years. This one comes from
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: Emily Keffer in the subject is formative years Messages. Hey, Jake,
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: heard you talk about how nineteen ninety was a big
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: formative year for you. That year was also a significant
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: time for me, specifically the summer of nineteen ninety. I
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: was just about to enter the seventh grade. I read
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: The Outsiders and my young eyes to see Tommy Lee
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: doing his drum solo over the crowd before landing back
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: on stage, sporting his leather thong and proceeding to moon
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: the crowd. As a coming of age preteen that was exciting.
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: Let's not forget the Judas pre suicide trial that happened
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: that year, which had to do with teen suicide. Also,
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: one of my all time favorite movies came out during
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: that time called Pump Up the Volumes starring Christian Slater.
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: Thanks for all that you do. You help me get
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: through the hours of monotonous work. I love your show, Emily.
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: Thanks for the email. I appreciate it. I too saw
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: Pump Up the Volume in the theaters when it came out.
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: I was also all of us, all my friends and
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: all of us were shocked and horrified by the Judas
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: pre suicide trial. I remember that as being earlier than
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: nineteen ninety though, but maybe I'm just misremembering that. And
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: the Tommy Lee thing with the drum kit going out
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: into the audience, and you know, it was just a revelation.
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: It was like one of those things that went around
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: the neighborhood. Everybody was talking about it when it started happened.
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: That was the Theater of Pain tour, which also I
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: remember is being pre nineteen ninety. But you know what,
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: I think might have debuted that little trick on the
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: Theater of Paine Tour and then ended up just continuing
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: to do it at shows.
• 33:07
