Although they formed in Ventura, California in the early 70's just a few short years after Black Sabbath and Judas Priest, CIRITH UNGOL (which, if you know anything about J.R.R. Tolkien and The Lord of the Rings lore, translates to mean “Spider's Cleft”) sound like a band “out of time”. Whether they're releasing 70's sounding albums in the 80's or releasing 80's sounding albums in the 90's, it should be noted that CIRITH UNGOL are one of the first ever doom metal bands, with a sound containing a unique blend of both doom and power metal elements, as well as hints of classic Priest & Sabbath. Discover the real difference between “LPs and EPs” and try to comprehend why EPs are actually “shorter” even though they sound like they'd be “longer”. Understand the reason “you've got to get your vasectomies early (and often)” and just know that “you're not gonna make it better” talking about “roast beef sandwiches” unless you “pull out a pack of Arby's sauce” and JOIN US as we go INSIDE THE METAL with the decade defying, anachronistic anomaly of doom and power metal that could only be known as CIRITH UNGOL.

This week on the show, Desmond and Duane look at an indie folk horror film about a backwoods community enthralled to a pit in the forest: Jug Face. Then, not one to turn down a bizarre theme, Desmond goes solo on a Dread Media Top 5 Favorite Pit Stories. Songs from the pit: "Cesspits" by Napalm Death, "Master of the Pit" by Cirith Ungol, "Into the Pit" by Fight, and "Deadly Sinners" by 3 Inches of Blood. RIP to David J Skal and Tisa Farrow.

Frodo declines to acquiesce to Sam's request to share the burden of the Ring… means ‘no'. Join Alan and Don as Sam becomes Frodo's personal shopper in the worst clearance sale ever in our final episode on The Tower of Cirith Ungol. Sam forgives Frodo for his Ring-induced thievery allegation; we discuss the origin of orcs (again!); and the Watchers can't stop Frodo and Sam. Also, The Lord of the Mark returns to speculate on Tolkien's favorite Indiana Jones film.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4468251/advertisement
In the middle of his darkest moment, Sam sings; in the middle of this episode, Don and Alan sing. One of these two was a good decision. Join Alan and Don as Sam longs for Frodo, and refuses to say goodbye to the Stars in our third episode on The Tower of Cirith Ungol. Snaga loses a hand and rolls a natural 1; Sam finally finds his beloved Frodo; and Frodo is convinced the Quest is over. Also, Don offers questionable bear advice.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4468251/advertisement
Sam finds a way past the Watchers to rescue Frodo, as Don finds a way past Alan's bad jokes to rescue the episode. Join Alan and Don as Sam continues his search for Frodo in a place absolutely filled with Orcs in our second episode on The Tower of Cirith Ungol. Sam is relieved to find nearly all of the Orcs are dead; we discuss the nature and origin of those creepy Watchers; and Shagrat ends Gorbag's singing career. Also, Snaga will be presenting a TED Talk on cooperation in the C-suite.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4468251/advertisement
Sam hesitantly takes what he sees as an irrevocable step down into Mordor; Don Marshall hesitantly agrees to do one more chapter with The Man of the West. Jon Alan and Don as Sam forgets his peril and bravely ventures into Mordor to rescue Frodo as we begin Book Six with The Tower of Cirith Ungol. Sam gets his first glimpse at Mount Doom; resists the temptation to become Samwise the Strong, Hero of the Age; and finally descends into Mordor. Finally, get out your shocked face as Don makes Alan feel old.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4468251/advertisement
