December 24th, 2018

00:0000:00

Bands are legendary when they are consistently groundbreaking, or they have been around so long to become an institution. Ministry is a unique case in that they embody both of these sentiments.

December 2nd, 2018

It seemed like industrial was everywhere in the 90s and early 2000s. Hundreds of bands were flooding the market, and trying to put their own stamp on the house that Nine Inch Nails built. Pitchshifter was one such band, and has played no less than four different styles throughout their career. On this episode of Discography Discussion, we look for a unifying theme in Pitchshifter, and try to find out if the band was original, or just another trend hopping metal band. #Pitchshifter #discussmetal

Episode 089: Saviour Machine - Discography Discussion

November 4th, 2018

00:0000:00

Some bands waddle in a sea of mediocrity throughout their careers. In contrast, there are artists who spend most of their waking hours trying to master their craft. What happens when one pursuit of perfection becomes bigger than the individual, and the sheer complexity of what they created starts spiraling out of control? Saviour Machine is very much one of those bands. On this episode of Discography Discussion we discuss all of their releases and try to understand what went wrong with the band’s “Legend” trilogy; a concept that spanned well over a decade in production. Also, Dan reads a statement by George Rivera (one of Saviour Machine’s biggest supporters) concerning his exposure to the band. #discussmetal #SaviourMachine
