The monster lives! Your hosts Nick and Zach take a deep dive into the multimedia juggernaut of failure that is Metallica’s St Anger, and it’s companion film Some Kind Of Monster, analyzing how we got here, what went wrong, and how other artists big and small can learn from the very public mistakes of one of music’s biggest acts.
Our buddy Joey joins us for a fran tick tick tick tick discussion of what's arguably the best song in this shitheap, in which Zach finally makes good on his veiled threats of defending St Anger.
Andrew's back with us this week to talk about Cowboy Kirk, Torben Ulrich's wizard beard, a mostly full bar and the hot mess that ensues when James goes off to rehab. It's a doozy for our boys in Metallica and not much better for us.
Well, it was only a matter of time before we had to hit the songs. OMINOUS, I'M ANUS
Our pal and bandmate Andrew join us for a discussion of the boiling tensions and bad jam sessions that drive James straight to rehab.
There goes the neighborhood. On the inaugural episode of SKOP, Nick and Zach tackle the series of events that got us to the sad state of St Anger, touching on Napster and the dirtiest-done man in metal, Jason Newsted and all the various Lars and James screwjobs that drove him to his departure from Metallica.
