100 Songs that Define Heavy Metal - Podcast Rankings and reviews

I absolutely love this podcast, but the amount of ads is absurd. Most of the time you’re close to 7-8 minutes in before there’s any content that isn’t an ad, the intro song, or the copy and pasted intro. Then, more ads (at least 2 minutes) between each segment. It’s crazy.

Like I said, I love it, but, c’mon, a 50 minute episode shouldn’t be 30-35% ads and less than 30 minutes of new, original content.

It could be great, but for now it’s frustratingly good.

I can’t think of a better person, deep in the creation of the art form and especially from behind the scenes to give us a list of 100 songs that DEFINE Heavy Metal. The first couple have me hooked and I look forward for 96 more!

The behind the scenes chatter about production, songwriting, & “the times” lends a new dimension to an old show gimmick (“the XXX best YYY of ZZZ” list). And with cred like Slagel & Metal Blade have in spades (aces, of course), the guests filling in those vivid colors are top notch & informative. Really enjoying this & hope the quality maintains! Thank you!

Loving this podcast and the inside knowledge of Brian Slagel incorporated in these stories. I can’t wait to hear the next episode.
