The Superhero Show #613Best Album of 2025 Pt. 2The Superhero Show Show: The Best Album of 2025 Pt. 2 Bracket Reaches Its Final ShowdownJoin the hosts as The Superhero Show returns with Best Album of 2025 Pt. 2, the thrilling conclusion to their musical detour from Cadillacs and Dinosaurs. After setting the stage in part one, this episode is where the bracket tightens, the debates get sharper, and the final decision is made. With passions running high and strong opinions on the line, the hosts work their way toward crowning the album that ultimately takes the title—officially locking in the winner as the show's choice heading into 2026.Narrowing the Field: Best Album of 2025 Pt. 2 Gets CompetitiveIn Best Album of 2025 Pt. 2, the bracket resumes with fewer contenders and much higher stakes. Albums that survived the first round now face tougher matchups, forcing the hosts to compare not just quality, but impact, longevity, and cultural relevance. Each discussion digs deeper into sound, experimentation, and how these records defined the year.As the bracket progresses, earlier favorites get tested, surprise underdogs gain momentum, and consensus becomes harder to reach. The episode captures that turning point where casual debate turns into full-on advocacy.Critics vs. Personal Picks: The Final BattlesThis episode also highlights the collision between critically acclaimed albums and the hosts' personal favorites. Records like Lux by Rosalía, Debí Tirar Más Fotos by Bad Bunny, Mayhem by Lady Gaga, Let God Sort Em Out by Clipse, Choke Enough by OKLOU, Getting Killed by Geese, Viagra Boys by Viagra Boys, and Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party by Hayley Williams all come back into focus as the hosts reassess which albums truly deserve to advance.Because the field is smaller, every elimination feels bigger. The hosts revisit earlier arguments, challenge their own assumptions, and wrestle with whether innovation, emotional connection, or sheer replay value should matter most.The Final Vote: Best Album of 2025 Pt. 2 Crowns a WinnerAs Best Album of 2025 Pt. 2 reaches its climax, the hosts make their final votes. The bracket closes, the debates settle, and one album rises above the rest. Whether the winner is a critical darling, a personal favorite, or an unexpected champion, the decision feels earned after two episodes of passionate discussion.Final Thoughts: Best Album of 2025 Pt. 2 Delivers the VerdictIn the end, Best Album of 2025 Pt. 2 delivers exactly what it promises: a decisive, spirited conclusion to The Superhero Show's biggest musical experiment yet. By borrowing the “Best Of” format from Movie of the Year and applying it to music, the hosts prove they can argue albums with the same intensity they bring to TV and film.With a winner officially crowned and carried into 2026, this episode stands as a loud, fun, and deeply opinionated celebration of a standout year in music.Looking for More?Want more "Best of 2025" episodes?

Mike Schrand has spent more than 30 years at St. Louis Public Radio — and his story is a masterclass in curiosity, creativity, and community. In this episode of Mostly Superheroes, Mike joins Logan Janis for a wide-ranging conversation that moves from overnight jazz shifts and Morning Edition to songwriting, cult movies, and why St. Louis is “the world's largest small town.” We talk about the evolution of public radio, nonprofit journalism, and why live, local storytelling still matters in an on-demand world. Mike also opens up about his life as a musician — including his solo albums Late Bloomer and Things Have Changed — plus the role art plays in identity, family, and aging creatively. Along the way, we dig into movie history filmed right here in St. Louis (Escape from New York), James Gunn stories, NPR programming, and what it really means to serve a community through sound.

In this episode, we speak with Steve "Lips" Kudlow of Anvil about 30 years into a heavy metal career, being the subject of a successful documentary, getting stuck with terrible record deals, and the need for perseverance. Plus, Lemmy in a hot air balloon, being peers with other legendary rock stars, and playing to your strengths.You can check out Anvil at the following locations:http://my.tbaytel.net/tgallo/anvil/http://my.tbaytel.net/tgallo/anvil/dvd.htmPaul works a day job and puts out vinyl and puts on shows via ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Katzulhu Productions⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/paul.neil.12⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/katzulhu⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/Dont-Quit-Your-Day-Job-podcast-107924851339602⁠

In this episode, I break down all the Song of the Year and Album of the Year nominees—talking about what the songs and albums are about, why they resonated with listeners, standout themes, and my honest reactions. I also share my personal picks, gush about the songs and albums I'm obsessed with (yes, “Golden” made the cut!), and talk about why this year's music lineup is so special.  Whether you're a die-hard Grammy fan, a music lover, or just looking for a fun recap, this episode has something for you.

We like women. Not in a creepy way...we mean we really like music created by women. So, in our ongoing series of episodes celebrating women in alternative music, this week we are covering our top 5 women-led albums of the 1990s. Appropriately enough, our Third Lads this week are a dynamic duo who "lived through this" and are inspired by this music - Julie Exter and Andrea Tarka White from Philly-based rock band Gun-Shy Butterfly! They currently have four singles that exemplify what the band has dubbed "bubble grunge" - a combination of sugary melodies and crunchy hooks that would have been right at home on mid-90s alternative radio. We hit it off right away with Andrea & Julie...we love 'em and we know you will too! But wait...there's also discussions about: tattoos, Higglytown Heroes, Nairing...uh...various areas, Goldschlager and comics, flip-flops (yes, again), our new grunge band Grotesque Quiche, hologram Jewel, hosers, Easttown accents, Julie's music/comedy podcast Rock'n'LOL, and much more. Oh, and guess what? A brand new O3L game called "Riot Grrrl Riot" - in which our contestants (and host) receive their very own riot grrrl names. As Kim deal would say to Gregg, "ugh!" Songs: Gun-Shy Butterfly - "Dark Side" Gun-Shy Butterfly - "Manchild" Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Superhero Show #612Best Album of 2025The Superhero Show Goes Off-Script: Hunting for the Best Album of 2025This week on The Superhero Show, the hosts hit pause on Cadillacs and Dinosaurs and dive headfirst into a brand-new challenge: crowning the Best Album of 2025. Known across the network for breaking down films on Movie of the Year, the team admits that music requires a different kind of expertise. So, instead of avoiding the challenge, they bring the “Best Of” format directly into The Superhero Show and let the debate rip.From Superheroes to Soundwaves: The Best Album of 2025 BracketTo tackle the massive question of the Best Album of 2025, the hosts build a full tournament-style bracket.

With every round, the bracket tightens and the debates get louder.Personal Picks Enter the ArenaIn addition to the critical darlings, each host brings their personal favorite album of the year into the bracket. These wild-card picks test whether passion can overpower consensus. Some personal choices surprise the panel by holding their own against heavyweight contenders, while others spark heated disagreements over taste, expectations, and what truly defines the Best Album of 2025.Debates, Upsets, and a Final VerdictAs the bracket narrows, the conversations shift from casual opinions to full-on arguments. The hosts debate genre boundaries, longevity, and which albums will define 2025 years from now. Unexpected upsets shake the bracket, and longtime favorites face serious challenges before a single album ultimately claims the title.Final Thoughts: Naming the Best Album of 2025By the end of the episode, the hosts reach a hard-fought consensus on the Best Album of 2025, closing out a special episode that blends their signature energy with a fresh musical focus. Whether you agree with the final pick or not, this episode proves that The Superhero Show can tackle any pop culture battlefield—even one filled with beats instead of capes.Looking for More?Want more "Best of 2025" episodes?

In this episode of Living on the B Side, host B speaks with Robbie Gennet – Los Angeles-based musician, educator, author and lifelong creative – about turning loss into art, self-permission in creativity and staying authentic as an artist. Together, they explore how music can become a language for processing grief, rebuilding identity and giving ourselves permission to fully show up as who we are.This episode invites slower listening, reflection and courage. We talk about Robbie losing his home and studio in the Woolsey fire, how acceptance and stoicism helped him move forward, and how music can hold our emotions, ask us better questions and quietly nudge us back to life.It's for anyone who's been through change or loss, creatives who feel blocked, “non creative” people who secretly want to try, and music lovers who use songs as mirrors for their inner worldIn this episode, we explore:From fire to creative rebirth – how losing his home and studio in the Woolsey fire led Robbie to his most prolific creative period.Music as emotional processing – how songs become mirrors, companions and “Trojan horses” for big ideas and feelings.Self-permission & authenticity – what we can learn from artists like David Bowie about reinventing ourselves and creating for us first.Creativity for “non-creatives” – simple, pressure-free ways to tap into creativity (from finger-painting energy to nature, hobbies and play).Teaching music as a language – why improvisation, curiosity and story matter more than “perfect” sheet reading.Letting go of perfection – Robbie's decision to finally release 10 albums and hundreds of songs instead of keeping them on a hard drive.Connect with the Robbie Gennet• Website: www.robbiegennet.com • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/robbiegennet• Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/robbiemusic/ • Apple Music: https://music.apple.com/au/artist/robbie-gennet/3707324 • Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/user/vil76trsywcp2uq95udynee3x About the Podcast:Living on the B Side is a podcast about the power of music — exploring how sound shapes our emotions, stories, and sense of self.

Paulie Beladino is by far one of the best guitarists and kindest people I know. His debut solo album: “Always” is a fantastic voyage captained by a Rock & Roll junkie. I Love this album and it was such an honor to talk to Paulie to get a behind the scenes look into what it takes to write songs, and how he was influenced. We had an awesome conversation about music and Paulie told stories about rock and roll history. He gave me 5 influential Guitarists as well as what Albums he would take to a Desert Island.

Show NotesSinger, songwriter, and guitarist Margaret Glaspy joins Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli for a Music Evolves conversation recorded in the context of the NAMM Show and the She Rocks Awards, where Glaspy is recognized as a 2026 honoree. The discussion centers on how artists develop a voice, how creative practice sustains a career, and why music functions as a form of public service rather than a commodity alone. Glaspy shares how growing up in a musically active household normalized creativity and removed the idea that music must be exceptional to be meaningful. Early immersion in Texas-style fiddle competitions, alongside exposure to jazz, songwriter traditions, and alternative rock, shapes a foundation rooted in lineage rather than trend. That sense of lineage continues to guide her current work, where influence is acknowledged openly rather than hidden.Songwriting, as Glaspy describes it, is a daily practice rather than an output-driven process. Writing consistently, sometimes a song a day, becomes a way to maintain agency in a career shaped by touring cycles, releases, and expectations. Albums emerge from accumulation and reflection, not from pre-defined concepts. This approach reframes productivity as presence, with creativity tied to well-being and continuity.The conversation also explores how artists navigate maturity. Early attempts to emulate heroes eventually give way to self-recognition. Glaspy speaks to the value of being a student of music, letting imitation serve as a bridge to personal expression rather than a destination. That perspective resists the myth of originality in isolation and places artists within an ongoing cultural thread.Recognition at the She Rocks Awards introduces another dimension. Glaspy views the honor with humility, emphasizing the importance of creating space to acknowledge women's contributions in music without turning the work itself into a competition. In that context, the NAMM Show represents the maker side of music, instrument builders, technologists, and craftspeople whose work enables creative expression.This episode positions music not as a product to be optimized, but as a practice to be protected, cultivated, and shared.GuestMargaret Glaspy, Singer, Songwriter, and Guitarist | Website: https://margaretglaspy.com/HostSean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine, Studio C60, and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast & Music Evolves Podcast | Website: https://www.seanmartin.com/Marco Ciappelli, Co-Founder, ITSPmagazine and Studio C60 | Website: https://www.marcociappelli.comResources2026 She Rocks Awards: https://sherocksawards.com/The NAMM Show 2026 is taking place from January 20-24, 2026 | Anaheim Convention Center • Southern California — Coverage provided by ITSPmagazine — Follow our coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/cybersecurity-technology-society-events/the-namm-show-2026The NAMM Show 2026: https://www.namm.org/thenammshow/attendMusic Evolves: Sonic Frontiers Newsletter | https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/7290890771828719616/Keywordsmargaret glaspy, sean martin, marco ciappelli, namm, she rocks awards, music, creativity, art, artist, musician, music evolves, music podcast, music and technology podcast, singer, songwriter, guitarist, guitar playingMore From Sean MartinMore from Music Evolves: https://www.seanmartin.com/music-evolves-podcastMusic Evolves on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnYu0psdcllTRJ5du7hFDXjiugu-uNPtWMusic Evolves: Sonic Frontiers Newsletter | https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/7290890771828719616/On Location with Sean and Marco: https://www.itspmagazine.com/on-locationITSPmagazine YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@itspmagazineBe sure to share and subscribe!

What if the sixth album is where artists finally step into their truest selves? We kick off season six by chasing that idea across genres and decades, building a mix from Radiohead, Bruce Springsteen, Kendrick Lamar, Prince, Beyoncé, The Beatles, Jay-Z, John Mayer, The National, Michael Jackson, Foo Fighters, and A Tribe Called Quest. The pattern that emerges is hard to ignore: at album six, craft meets courage, and the results can be seismic.We start with contrasts—Radiohead's brooding There, There and the stark intimacy of Springsteen's Nebraska—spotlighting how restraint can be as bold as maximalism. Kendrick's TV Off punches at the attention economy while delivering meme-worthy flair; Prince's Purple Rain towers as a career-defining epic that still feels alive. We trace personal and cultural stakes in Beyoncé's Formation, then pivot to The Beatles' Michelle to show how Rubber Soul reshaped their sound with subtle, melodic confidence.The timeline gets playful when Jay-Z's '03 Bonnie & Clyde foreshadows what Lemonade would later complicate. We celebrate narrative craft in John Mayer's Walt Grace, sit with The National's vulnerable “45%er” admission, and marvel at Thriller's near-greatest-hits density anchored by Billie Jean. Foo Fighters' The Pretender turns sixth-album freedom into kinetic fuel, and A Tribe Called Quest's We the People closes with legacy, politics, and gratitude—proof that a final statement can still move the culture forward.https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/sam-2026-6th-album-mix/pl.u-1LX0auZaGX7V1.

It's that time of year for me to look back at what I was listening to in the past twelve months and give you some recommendations! I've listened to a ton of music in the past year, plenty of which was new to me. Gainesville exposed me to a ton of new indie artists, some of whom I've had the good fortune to speak to. I did decide to limit this to only vinyl albums I bought this year, rather than being albums that were released this year. Also, I should call out the Live Anthology RSD release which I picked up but, I'll most likely be talking about that record as part of a review of the Live Anthology somewhere down the road, so I haven't included it in this year's list! Plus, you already know it!Albums included in this episode:Chris Rea - AubergeVangelis - 1492 - Conquest of ParadiseLady Gaga - MayhemSt Vincent - All Born ScreamingClutch - Sunrise on Slaughter BeachMargo Price - Hard Headed WomanJarvis Cocker - Further ComplicationsDream Theatre - Metropolis Pt 2.

Chris Weisman joins Pablo Held for a special episode about their unique long-distance collaboration in which they made albums for each other. They talk about exchanging songs on paper, giving up control over arrangement, production and instrumentation, and releasing records on which neither of them plays a single note of their own music. Moving beyond process, the conversation dives into questions of authorship, musical identity, and trust, as they reflect track-by-track on both albums and on the emotional experience of hearing one's music transformed through another artist's imagination—and how this project reshaped their understanding of what the term “my music” really means.

Styx had achieved great highs in the 1970s. Albums like The Grand Illusion, Pieces of Eight and Cornerstone had all gone multi-platinum in the US thanks to hard riffs from James JY Young and Tommy Shaw and the heartfelt lyrics and vocals of Dennis DeYoung. But by 1980, tensions in the band lead to the dismissal of DeYoung for his insistence on his songs and concepts be at the forefront of the bands creative output. Chuck (bass) and John (drums) Panozzo had known Dennis since childhood and had played together for 20 years but they tried to carry on without him. However, in the end they decided to invite him back and give way to his concept of viewing the US like an old theater. You had an auspicious start with lots of promise, you had a brilliant heyday, you've seen some tough times and now it's time to find out who you are. While Shaw's Too Much Time on My Hands relates to the plight of the struggling working man, the hopeful The Best of Times offers respite from the weariness with a lover. Big riffs on Rockin' the Paradise keep the hard rockers listening and Half-Penny, Two-Penny lets James Young showcase his meatier solos. However, the second side of the album is a bit disjointed with the offputting Lonely People opening up and then a sappy She Cares. AD 1958 is a reprise to AD 1928 and the windout song State Street Sadie borrowing a bit of ragtime makes for big leaps between genres which require more than one listen. And controversy ensued when the Arkansas State Senate found satanic backward masking and issued labels on albums that did the same (including The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and more). That would spark DeYoung's next concept album Kilroy Was Here which ended up breaking the band. We like Styx and this is the first album of theirs we've reviewed and it's possible we'd do another down the road. While the band will never be our favorite, we recognize the talent - we may just not always be on board with the concept.
