The Ozzman Cometh?? Mr. Ozzy Osbourne's recent announcement of wanting to do another album and tour has Metaldom all abuzz. But a front person is only as good as the band behind them. Over his illustrious career, Ozzy has surrounded himself with some amazing musicians. Most went on to have legendary carriers themselves. So we figured this week we'd apply the 'Top 5' treatment to those awesome artists. Yeah we chose some obvious (looking at you, Randy) but some other choices will raise your eyebrows. Check it out! In our "News, Views and Tunes", we check out the Halloween Horror Nights in F.L.A and go ga-ga over the Prime series "Daisy Jones & The Six". Musically, we crank awesome tunes from Cryptic Slaughter, Ruin Lust, Xorsist and introduce Virginian thrasher Vigil in out "Indie Spotlight'. Horns Up and Stay Healthy!

At a bazillion years old the Rolling Stones just released a new record. There's a whole new industry of "classic" rock bands still touring with more gray hair than hair spray. And Crue vox Vince Neil has been under fire for sub-par performances for years now. All this begs the question - When should an artist hang it up? Should there be an age limit? Or is it a health issue, positive or negative. How about when a band member no longer enjoys playing with their bandmates? We leave no stone unturned. In our "News, Views and Tunes", Aaron casts his vote for the MLMAs. And we reminisce about old school compilations and when Dee Snider kicked ass at the PMRC hearings. Musically, we crank tunes from Dead Kennedys, MDC, Razor, D.R.I., Blackbaird, Belvedere, Attacker and we introduce Winnipeg hardcore bashers Pink Snot in our "Indie Spotlight". Remember to vote for Snowy for Ambassador of the Year at the MLMAs at www.loudawards.com. Thx!

A.I. (Artificial Intelligence) seems to be all the rage right now. Love it or hate it, it seems to have invaded the entertainment world, music being no exception. We do a deep dive into this phenom, with all the techno mumbo jumbo. Who knew back then that the science fiction from The Jetsons would become science reality. In our "News, Views and Tunes", we discuss our recent trip to Texas (No, we didn't go blind). As well, we're once again up for a Manitoba Loud Music Award. Cast your vote at www.loudawards.com (Ambassador of the Year).

Couple episodes back we discussed the various unique places we've attended a gig. Now we can add "movie theatre" to that list. This past weekend the two Arlington, TX dates from the Metallica M72 tour were simulcast to theatres the world over. We both caught the Sunday show. And decided to go the event with a fine studded wristband. We go over the setlist, our theatre experiences and veer off to places unexpected. In all, a fantastic conversation! In our "News, Views and Tunes", we struggle talking about the recent Batushka gig. Musically, we crank some Onslaught, Whiplash, Dag Nasty, the aforementioned Batushka, Inepsy, Disciples Of Power, Phantom Lord and we introduce black n rollers Hellfynder in our "Indie Spotlight". Horns Up and Stay Healthy!

After our self imposed hiatus, we're back and ready to rock! But we weren't sitting back and sipping drinks on the beach. We took in some gigs. And hit the theatres and record shops. Oh, and Metallica's debut "Kill 'em All" hit the racks. Not only is "Kill..." one of the most influential albums but its also an old fave of ours. So we decided it would be a great time to dissect this album that helped shape our Metalness. We go over how/when we discovered it, our fave tracks and share some personal stories. Happy Bday, Old Friend!! In our "News, Views and Tunes", we finally caught the '87 "Trick Or Treat" in the theatre. And we took out a subscription to Thunderflixx. Musically, we crank new and used from Blitzkrieg, Hallow's Eve, Septic Death, Ripcordz, Mortal Sin, Cruelty, Wreck-Defy, Stabbing and introduce Winnipeg death metallers Inhumed and Regina punkers Bats Out in our Indie Spotlight! Horns Up and Stay Healthy!

Horns Up! Episode 750! Another milestone! We've all heard the expression "Classic Rock". We have a fair idea what makes up said music. But can we put a fine pointed horn on it? Is it simply a generational thing? Or do subgenres play into it? And what this "Dad Rock" business? Does it exist? And what are the who's, whats, wheres and whens behind it? It all makes for an interesting (to say the least) conversation. In our "News, Views and Tunes", we discuss record shopping in a brewery (??). Musically, we crank some new and used from Exhumed, Heavy Load, Black Lace, Death Ray Vision, Black Knife, Horrified, Tailgunner and we introduce Red Deer's Hooker Spit in our "Indie Spotlight". Horns Up and Stay Healthy!
