This week, the lads hop across the pond to continue excavating denim and leather. It's all about the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal! The NWOBM movement was filled with passionate bands that were poised to take over the world. Unfortunately, most of them didn't make it to the level of Iron Maiden, Def Leppard, or Saxon. Hopefully, we can help spread the word and sounds for those who didn't. What's this InObscuria thing? We're a podcast that exhumes obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal and puts them in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. This week we discuss the LOST. For such a small island, they sure had a lot of amazing bands that set the standards for what is known as heavy metal. From the music, to the fashion, to the attitude… Over 45-years ago, these bands started an underground movement that would change hard rock and metal forever. Songs this week include: More – “Warhead” from Warhead (1981) DEMON – “Night Of The Demon” from Night Of The Demon (1981) Grim Reaper – “Run For Your Life” from See You In Hell (1983)  Bronz – “Heat Of The Night” from Taken By Storm (1983) Witchfynde – “Give ‘Em Hell” from Give ‘Em Hell(1980) Marseille – “Rock You Tonight” from Marseille (1979) Aragorn – “Black Ice” from The Neat Singles Collection Vol. 1 (1981) Buy cool stuff with our logo on it!:InObscuria Store Visit us: https://inobscuria.com/ https://www.facebook.com/InObscuria https://x.com/inobscuria https://www.instagram.com/inobscuria/ Check out Robert's amazing fire sculptures and metal workings here: http://flamewerx.com/ If you'd like to check out Kevin's band THE SWEAR, take a listen on all streaming services or pick up a digital copy of their latest release here: https://theswear.bandcamp.com/ If you want to hear Robert and Kevin's band from the late 90s – early 00s BIG JACK PNEUMATIC, check it out here: https://bigjackpnuematic.bandcamp.com/

Paul Rees fell in love with AOR when it began with Boston in 1976, the polished, ramped-up hits that were briefly the music of the American heartland. His book ‘Raised On Radio: Power Ballads, Cocaine & Payola – the AOR Glory Years 1976-1986' remembers the age when records were launched via car stereos, their eternally appealing sound and the preposterous lives of the people who wrote and played them – Bon Jovi, Pat Benatar, Asia, REO Speedwagon, Don Henley and Toto among them. “It's happy music,” he points out. “Music that makes you raise a quizzical eyebrow.” In the mix … … the original AOR sound: “Led Zeppelin hard rock with Eagles harmonies and a stratospheric high-tenor voca|” … the absolute power of producers like Mutt Lange (a man raised on radio jingles) … Pat Benatar, the former married bank clerk who wanted to be Robert Plant in a leotard … “AOR stars were all salesmen who talked in quotes” ... the many reasons Don Henley fired people on a whim … Def Leppard's vision of America built on AOR and cowboy movies … “Chicago and the Tubes never played on their records” … “he ended up butterball-naked in a cocaine threesome sting with two disguised police women” … the producer who had his trout pond realigned as he couldn't work looking at a garden that wasn't symmetrical … the story of Toto's Africa: “tape loops strung round chair-backs and a quick flick through a geography book” … “if this record's a hit I'll run naked down Sunset Boulevard”.

Brian From is joined by Adam Holz of Plugged In to break down this week’s entertainment headlines, from Steph Curry’s animated sports comedy GOAT to a surprisingly explicit new adaptation of Wuthering Heights. They also discuss the violent, spiritually murky animated film Scarlet and what parents should know before heading to the theater. The conversation wraps with reflections on Super Bowl commercials, cultural shifts, and a nostalgic (and surprisingly tame) Def Leppard concert in Las Vegas.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Classic rock and roll bands and artists releasing new music?  What's the point?  Is it worth a listen?  Do we discount some excellent rock from these bands just because it's not 1987? Or is it a shell of their sound and original fire? Def Leppard has a new song, in conjunction with a run at the Sphere in Las Vegas.  We take a first listen. Then we look at the past 12 months of rock and roll releases from bands like Alice Cooper, Styx, and others who are still making and releasing new music—an objective ear on the sound of what some bands are doing today. Let's check it out together.  No BS.  Just our ears and the vibe. What works and what doesn't?

We check in with our friend Dan Halen from MULLETT! He talks about what makes this 80's tribute band fun and why they stand out from other tribute bands out there! They are playing locally in Old Saybrook, CT and Norwalk, CT soon!Since 2010, Mullett has stood as the nation's definitive 80's rock-and-roll powerhouse! This isn't just a tribute; it's a high-voltage time capsule. By fusing iconic "big hair" aesthetics with massive visual production and fanatical attention to sonic detail, Mullett recreates the arena-rock glory days with unrivaled conviction. From elite corporate events and sold-out theaters to high-stakes casinos and legendary nightclubs, Mullett possesses the rare ability to command any stage and electrify any audience. They don't just play the hits—they embody the era. Fans and critics alike agree: witnessing Mullett is the closest you can get to the raw energy of Bon Jovi, Def Leppard, Van Halen, Journey, and Motley Crue without needing a Flux Capacitor or tricked-out DeLorean. Grab your spandex, catch Mullett at a venue near you, and let the 80's live forever!To check where they will play next click on their website! https://www.mullettrocks.com/tour-dates

This episode of Regarding… Music From The Elder takes on Odyssey, the Paul Stanley–sung epic where KISS decides that the best way to build mythology is to state it very solemnly and hope the listener fills in the blanks.Chaz Charles, Greg “Wolfie” Wolf, Scott D. Monroe, and Corey Morissette break down a song that has lyrics, has a singer, and has enormous confidence — yet still leaves everyone asking the same question:Who is Paul Stanley supposed to be right now?Is he the voice of the Elders?A historian?A prophet?A tour guide pointing vaguely at a fantasy world just off-camera?That confusion comes into sharp focus around one of the song's most baffling images: the child in a sundress. The panel spends time trying to figure out who this child is supposed to be, why we're meant to care, and how such a specific image can feel emotionally loaded while remaining completely untethered to any character, story, or stakes. Is it innocence? A symbol? A memory? Or just another gesture toward meaning without the work of defining it?The episode digs deep into the song's core tension: Odyssey wants to function as narration without committing to a narrator. Paul sings declarative, myth-heavy lines with total conviction, but the lyrics never establish perspective, stakes, or character — creating a song that sounds profound while remaining stubbornly abstract.The panel unpacks:How Paul's performance sells seriousness even when the lyrics wobbleWhy repetition is doing most of the storytelling heavy liftingHow the song insists that a grand journey is underway without showing us any of itAnd why this kind of myth-making teeters dangerously close to self-parodyComparisons are made to 2112, classic fantasy tropes, and Monty Python's mock-epic moments, where absolute sincerity collides with material that can't quite support it. The group debates whether “Odyssey” is misunderstood ambition, overreach, or simply a band confusing importance with clarity.The episode closes — after post-production reordering — with a table read from Scott D. Monroe's original screenplay, now placed at the end of the show, finally giving “Odyssey” the narrative framework it always seemed to demand… and quietly highlighting how much the song itself leaves unsaid.This isn't about vocals.It's about authority without definition.The Regarding…Series — we listen so you don't have to.The ShowThree guys who are various stages of Def Leppard fans, and a guy who's just heard the hits (maybe...some of them.) Join the guys over a plate of Buffalo Chicken Wings as they give Def Leppard's 1996 album Slang an honest listen and try to figure out just what the hell "Slang" means anyways.

The Bee Gees are one of the most influential and enduring acts in popular music history, a band whose songs have soundtracked generations and transcended genres, eras and trends. Formed by brothers Barry, Robin and Maurice Gibb, the group's journey began long before global fame, rooted in family, harmony and an almost instinctive musical bond.Born on the Isle of Man and raised between England and Australia, the Gibb brothers began performing together as kids. Music wasn't just an interest — it was the family language. By the late '50s, the brothers were already writing songs, honing their harmonies and learning the discipline of performance. Their early success in Australia laid the groundwork for an international career that would soon explode.The Bee Gees' first major breakthrough came in the late '60s with emotionally rich, melodic songs like “To Love Somebody,” “Massachusetts,” “Words,” and “I've Gotta Get a Message to You.” Their close, often aching harmonies and introspective songwriting set them apart. In the '70s, the Bee Gees achieved one of the most dramatic transformations in music history. With Barry's soaring falsetto, the brothers became the undisputed kings of the disco era. Songs like “Stayin' Alive,” “Night Fever,” “How Deep Is Your Love,” and “You Should Be Dancing” dominated charts worldwide, largely through their work on the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack — one of the best-selling albums of all time. Their songwriting partnership extended beyond their own recordings, producing hits for artists including Barbra Streisand, Diana Ross, Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton.Yet behind the global phenomenon was a tight-knit family unit. It was within this world that Stephen Gibb, Barry's eldest son, grew up. Raised surrounded by music, Stephen witnessed the Bee Gees at work from an unusually intimate vantage point. As a child, he watched his father and uncles write, rehearse and refine songs, often assuming that such musical brilliance was simply part of everyday life. Only later did he realise just how extraordinary that environment was.Stephen chose not to follow directly in his family's musical footsteps. Instead of pop harmonies, he gravitated toward hard rock and heavy metal, inspired by bands like Van Halen and Def Leppard. Determined to carve out his own identity, he built his own career. It was a conscious decision to step out of the Bee Gees' long shadow while still deeply respecting it.Tragedy struck the Gibb family with the loss of Andy Gibb in 1988, followed by Maurice Gibb in 2003 and Robin Gibb in 2012. These losses marked the end of the Bee Gees as a performing group, but not the end of their music. Barry continued performing and recording, often with Stephen by his side. Over time, Stephen became a trusted musical collaborator and guitarist in Barry's touring band, providing both musical and emotional support as his father carried the legacy forward alone.In 2021, Barry released Greenfields: The Gibb Brothers' Songbook, a roots-influenced reimagining of classic Bee Gees songs, recorded with a stellar lineup of artists including Dolly Parton, Keith Urban and Alison Krauss. The album was widely praised and served as a poignant tribute to his brothers and their shared catalogue. It also marked the closing chapter of Barry's recording career, as he has since stepped into a well-earned and contented retirement.Today, the Bee Gees' legacy remains immense. Their songs continue to resonate because they speak to universal emotions — love, heartbreak, resilience and hope — delivered through melodies that feel both intimate and timeless. Through Barry, and through the respect and care shown by Stephen, that legacy is protected with dignity rather than spectacle.The Bee Gees were never just a band. They were a family, bound by blood, harmony and an extraordinary gift for songwriting — a gift that continues to echo across generations.Today Stephen Gibb joins us with the story of The Bee Gees.

Don and Dude keep the “I Love the 80s” tour rolling into 1983, a year when cable TV, mail‑order music clubs, and early MTV helped R&B and pop polish their hooks without sanding off all the emotional rough edges. One of us brings a married‑duo soul record that turns relationship conflict into sophisti‑funk therapy, while the other counters with a technicolor, hook‑stuffed debut that reframes punky, downtown weirdness as mass‑appeal pop. Together, the albums show how 1983's R&B and pop could be slick, vulnerable, and chart‑ready, but still tangled up in money, heartbreak, and the messy work of becoming yourself.The AlbumsWomack & Womack – Love Wars (1983) On their debut as a duo, Cecil and Linda Womack fold family gospel roots, Sam Cooke's shadow, and veteran songwriting chops into a lean early‑80s R&B set that treats love like an ongoing negotiation instead of a fairy tale. Built around supple basslines, tight James Gadson grooves, and restrained synths, the record plays like a living‑room soul soap opera where arguments, red flags, and reconciliations all get equal airtime. Tracks like “Love Wars,” “Baby I'm Scared of You,” and their quietly devastating cover of “Angie” push past easy romance into fear, honesty, and hard‑won optimism, sketching a relationship cycle that feels lived‑in rather than idealized. Produced by Stewart Levine with an A‑team of L.A. session players, the album's space, subtlety, and emotional candor would later be heard as a bridge toward neo‑soul and more adult‑minded R&B.Cyndi Lauper – She's So Unusual (1983) Cyndi Lauper's solo debut explodes out of the speakers as a neon‑bright mix of pop‑rock, new wave, and downtown art‑kid attitude, turning a batch of covers and co‑writes into an unmistakably personal statement. From the cynical, melodica‑laced opener “Money Changes Everything” through the feminist rallying cry of “Girls Just Want to Have Fun” and the tender, slow‑motion reassurance of “Time After Time,” she proves she can be funny, strange, and devastatingly vulnerable—sometimes in the same song. Rick Chertoff's production leans on jangly guitars, stacked harmonies, and sharp synth hooks, but always keeps Lauper's elastic, technically fierce voice at the center. The result is an album that made history with four Top‑Five singles and still plays like a manifesto for unapologetic individuality in pop.Diggin' AlbumsHome Front – Watch It Die (2025) Edmonton's Home Front push their self‑described “bootwave” further on Watch It Die, fusing 80s‑inflected synths, post‑punk grit, and anthemic choruses into songs about getting by when everything feels like it's fraying at the edges.The Twilight Sad – It's the Long Goodbye (2026) On their sixth LP, The Twilight Sad stretch their dense, noise‑tinted indie rock into a reflective, slow‑burning set about loss, endings, and hanging on, wrapping James Graham's thick‑accented confessions in towering guitars and electronics that feel both crushing and oddly comforting.Flickerstick – Superluminal (2025) Reuniting after more than two decades, Flickerstick return with Superluminal, an 11‑track set of cinematic alt‑rock that folds their early‑2000s melodic instincts into grown‑up songs about time, aging, and the strange vertigo of getting a second act.Def Leppard – Pyromania (1983) Pyromania finds Def Leppard and producer Mutt Lange perfecting the gleaming, radio‑ready side of hard rock, stacking harmonized choruses and surgically precise riffs into arena anthems like “Photograph,” “Rock of Ages,” and “Foolin'” that defined what big‑budget 80s rock would sound like.Follow & Support Follow the show on Instagram, Facebook, Threads, and Bluesky @albumnerds, and support by subscribing, rating, reviewing, and sharing.“You'll find many of the truths that we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view.” - Obi-Wan Kenobi

Episode 17 of Toph's Top Five, the 2T&A spinoff sweeping the nation, reminds us that there were really three major eras in music: the Rick Allen 2-armed era...the Rick Allen 1-armed era...and, still ongoing, bassist Flea and his 3-arm era.  So let's get the Def out.  If no one ever said that before, they should have.  Shoulda been a thing.

Mutt Lange: Exceptional Producer When considering artists such as AC/DC, Nickelback, Shania Twain, Foreigner, Bryan Adams, and Def Leppard, along with the Cars, do you ever think of the producers behind them? Does the term "Unique Wall of Sound Vocal Harmonies" resonate with you, or perhaps the four seemingly nonsensical words "Gunter, Gleiben, Glauchan, Globen"? Fortunately, for Kennedy, this signifies one individual: Mutt Lange, the Exceptional Producer. Tune in to Kennedy's Corner to explore Lange's career.

Music of the Mat is celebrating nine years the only way it knows how: with a hearty pun and a lively discussion about hair metal! Inspired by the recent retirement of Hiroshi Tanahashi and his glorious head of hair, this episode combines two hirsute topics. The hair vs. hair match is a stipulation that has been around for decades in pro wrestling, and hair metal is a genre that has been around for decades in music (even if it's heyday was forty years ago). Andrew is joined by returning guest Damon McDonald (Super J-Cast) to play some of their favorite hair metal songs. Artists played include Ratt, Cinderella, White Lion, Skid Row, Def Leppard, KIX, Bon Jovi, Poison, and many more. Grab your hairspray, pour yourself into the tightest spandex pants you can find, and enjoy this fantastic anniversary show!Theme song: "Hemispheres" by Silent PartnerBluesky: @MusicoftheMat / @justandrew / @thesuperjcastTwitter: @thesuperjcastSuper J-Cast's Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/superjcastAll VOW podcasts, articles, previews, and reviews: VoicesofWrestling.comJoin the VOW Discord to discuss Music of the Mat and other shows/topics: VoicesofWrestling.com/DiscordDonate to Music of the Mat and other VOW podcasts: VoicesofWrestling.com/DonateOur Sponsors:* Check out our sponsor BetterHelp at https://www.betterhelp.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

What if the “dumb party metal” you grew up with turned out to be one of the sharpest mirrors of 1980s America? In this episode of Dig Me Out: 80s Metal, we sit down with author, professor, and 80s tribute-band guitarist Jesse Kavadlo to talk about his new book Rock of Pages: The Literary Tradition of 1980s Heavy Metal and why those songs about girls, demons, and good times were actually wrestling with nuclear fear, censorship, and what it meant to grow up under the Cold War.Jesse walks us through how 80s metal lyrics connect to classic literature, from Def Leppard reimagining Genesis and Paradise Lost to Metallica and Ozzy Osbourne grappling with existential dread, addiction, and the possibility of global annihilation. We dig into the PMRC hearings and satanic panic, the way MTV videos turned escapism into literal chains and magic portals, and how Stranger Things surprisingly nails the mix of danger and freedom that metal kids actually felt in the 80s. Along the way, we talk subculture vs. streaming-era playlists, why Dio and Iron Maiden might be the true heirs of Romantic poetry, and how heavy metal may have nudged the Cold War toward its end at the Moscow Music Peace Festival.If you care about 80s heavy metal, the MTV era, or just love thinking about how songs work under the hood, this episode is for you. Fans of Iron Maiden, Metallica, Ozzy Osbourne, Van Halen, Mötley Crüe, Poison, Bon Jovi, Dio, and even Steel Panther's parody universe will hear this music in a new way. And if you're into how culture and politics collide in sound—think the way punk, hip-hop, or grunge carried the anxieties of their eras—you'll find a lot to chew on here too.Episode Highlights0:00 – Intro / Setting the stage How Jesse went from Brooklyn club stages and opening for Danger Danger to a PhD in literature and an 80s tribute band in St. Louis, and why 80s metal still gets written off as “by and for dummies” while Dylan and Kendrick win major literary prizes.5:12 – Are 80s metal lyrics actually literature? Cassette liner notes, goofy rhymes, and serious themes: Jesse breaks down how synecdoche, personification, metaphor, and symbolism show up in songs by Def Leppard, Metallica, and Twisted Sister.12:45 – PMRC, Tipper Gore, and the fight over teenage imagination We revisit the 1985 PMRC hearings, Dee Snider's testimony, and why “Under the Blade” and “Suicide Solution” say more about adult panic than teen corruption.20:30 – Cold War metal: Bon Jovi to Nuclear Assault How videos like Bon Jovi's “Runaway” and songs by Metallica, Ozzy, Megadeth, and Nuclear Assault carried nuclear anxiety, class conflict, and apocalyptic dread beneath all the hairspray.28:10 – Escapism, fantasy, and why Dio matters From Dungeons & Dragons to Iron Maiden and Dio, we explore metal's love of magic, fantasy, and portals as a deeply human response to a world that often felt unlivable.36:40 – MTV, chains, and the magic door We unpack the visual language of 80s metal videos: breaking out of asylums and prisons, falling through mirrors, and what it meant to “escape to the concert” once metal hit the mainstream.45:05 – Outsiders selling millions of records Why metal fans still felt like misfits even as the music dominated MTV, and how that outsider identity overlaps with the way readers and writers see themselves.52:30 – Van Halen, class struggle, and 1984 From “Running with the Devil” and “Jump” to “Hot for Teacher,” we look at David Lee Roth's working-class storytelling, school-as-prison imagery, and the eerie resonance of naming an album 1984 in the synth-drenched futureshock of the mid-80s.1:01:10 – Cowboys, Road Warriors, and the end of the world How metal videos borrowed from Escape from New York, The Road Warrior, and cowboy mythology to build a visual language of lawless survival and American ruggedness.1:09:45 – W.A.S.P., Nine Inch Nails, and moving the line What it means that W.A.S.P.'s “Animal (F*** Like a Beast)” got pulled from shelves while “Closer” became a critical darling, and how censorship lines shifted from the 80s to the 90s.1:18:20 – White Lion, Living Colour, and the politics hiding in band names We get into White Lion's unexpected political conscience, the uncomfortable optics of Pride, and how Living Colour wore their politics more explicitly.1:25:40 – How to listen differently after Rock of Pages Jesse explains how he hopes readers (and listeners) revisit 80s metal: with streaming open, videos queued up, and an ear tuned to metaphor, context, and the way these songs helped kids survive their era.1:33:50 – What's next and where to find the book Jesse hints at possible 90s projects and shares where to find Rock of Pages through Bloomsbury, indie bookstores, and the usual suspects.If this conversation makes you want to pull your old cassettes out of the box (or at least re-open your 80s metal playlist), don't stop here.Dive into the full archive of 70s & 80s metal episodes, history-of-the-band deep dives, and mixtapes at digmeoutpodcast.com.Join the DMO Union for bonus episodes, new release reviews, polls, and our private Discord community at dmounion.com.Subscribe, leave a review, and share this episode with the friend who still swears 80s metal was “just for fun.” Let's prove, once and for all, that the music that raised us was doing a lot more than just partying.

Regarding… Music From The Elder kicks off Season Five of the Regarding… series with a deep dive into KISS's most infamous left turn: The Elder, the soundtrack to a movie that never existed—until now.Co-Hosts Greg “Wolfie” Wolf, Scott D. Monroe, Chaz Charles, and Corey Morissette enter the album track by track with eyes wide open, asking not whether it's good or bad, but what actually happens when a band builds an entire fantasy world and forgets how to live inside it. This season isn't about rehabilitating The Elder, and it's not about burying it either. It's about documenting it honestly. Oaky...honestly, they didn't need to ask if it was bad...but that is entirely besides the point. There are those who would disagree.The episode opens by framing the record's troubled history—Bob Ezrin, post-Wall ambition, band dysfunction, label interference, and the infamous resequencing that altered the original narrative. The hosts debate original vs. remastered track order before settling on the band's restored vision: “Fanfare” into “Just a Boy.”From there, the discussion digs into why the album alienated fans, how its medieval fantasy tropes collide with KISS's identity, and why certain ideas almost work when stripped of the band's branding. Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons quotes add historical context, while sharp commentary compares The Elder to Tommy, 2112, Lord of the Rings, and even unintentional self-parody.The episode's major twist: the launch of an original, serialized movie script written by Scott D. Monroe. Each week, new pages will be released, expanding the story the album only hinted at—and sometimes actively avoided. This first episode features a full table read of the prologue, introducing Morpheus, the Elders, Mr. Blackwell, and the Boy, finally giving the album the narrative structure it never quite earned.Along the way, the hosts cover Ace Frehley's limited contributions, Bob Kulick's uncredited guitar work, the album's critical reputation, and why The Elder may be one of rock's most fascinating failures.Season Five begins exactly where Regarding… belongs: at the intersection of ambition, miscalculation, and just enough belief to make the whole thing worth examining.We listen so you don't have to.The ShowThree guys who are various stages of Def Leppard fans, and a guy who's just heard the hits (maybe...some of them.)

Let Us Know What You Think of the Show!Date: January 7, 2026Name of Podcast: Backstage Pass RadioS10: E1: Austin Ingerman (Gunshine) - Gunshine From Sunshine StateSHOW SUMMARY:Big riffs, big hooks, zero apologies. That's the energy we chase with guitarist and songwriter Austin Ingerman of Gunshine, a Florida-born player who balances swagger with sharp songcraft. From Daytona beginnings to LA's Musicians Institute and arena tours as a hired gun, Austin shares how those miles shaped a band built for choruses you can shout and guitars that actually feel dangerous again.  We talk origin stories the honest way: how a pandemic pause pushed Austin home, how early tracks came together before a singer was even in the room, and why the search for a voice with an X factor took years. When Jordan walked in from a dueling-piano bar, the chemistry clicked fast. The result is Gunshine's “swampy” identity—Southern edge, modern punch—rooted in influences like Boston, Def Leppard, AC/DC, and a touch of early GNR. The name Gunshine nods to Florida's nickname and the band's sunburned grit, not a retro costume.  Songwriting sits at the center. Austin often starts with melodies and riffs captured on voice memos, while Jordan brings a Nashville-honed lyric lens and the number system to keep structures tidy. We break down “Bayou,” which began as Jordan's country-leaning sketch and morphed into a layered modern rocker with a ramping chorus. The home-studio pipeline is real: tracks built in Austin's space, files shipped to Chris Collier for mix and master, and a sound that still hits like a room full of amps. Theory helps in the background—tension, resolution, the occasional Mixolydian wink—but the rule is feel first.  Grand Rising, a 13-song album, arrives with more colors: piano textures, heavier corners, and a stealth seven-string thickening the choruses without stealing the spotlight. We dig into touring momentum after a successful run through venues like the Whisky and Sturgis, plus the realities of booking while transitioning agencies. Austin's parting wisdom is pure working-musician truth: pick one job a day, finish it well, and let the songs lead everything else.  If you crave straight-ahead rock with big melodies and no filler, hit play, follow Gunshine on socials, and watch for the first single on January 23.

You step into the pressure cooker of elite live sound, where Robert Scovill shows you why chaos is often the best teacher. From mixing Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductions with zero margin for error to handling full-band changeovers on the fly, you learn that perfection is worth chasing but dangerous to demand. You hear why live mixing beats the studio for him. It is about capturing ensemble moments, not polishing parts. Even when the doubt creeps in before showtime, the lights come up, the band hits, and the moment reminds you why you do this. This is the mindset of Always Be Performing. You also get practical, battle-tested tactics for surviving high-stakes gigs. Learn how to study a band fast, who sings, who solos, and when, using recordings and YouTube as prep tools. You hear what it takes to mix legendary harmony vocals, why artists like Def Leppard insist on singing live, and how those expectations shape your approach. Then it gets nerdy in the best way, with the evolution of De-Feedback, real-world use at the Rock Hall, and how tools like reverse impulse responses can clean up wedges, vocals, and even IEMs. The takeaway is clear. Preparation, adaptability, and relentless curiosity are what keep you in the game. 00:00:00 Gig Gab 515 – Monday, January 5th, 2026 January 12th: National Day of Dialogue Guest co-host: Robert Scovill 00:01:25 Mixing Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 10+ Acts… with full changeovers Trial by fire, with no time! 00:07:27 The enjoyment of the pressure of mixing live Perfection is a great thing to strive for, a terrible thing to achieve 00:09:00 Giving up on the studio in favor of live Way more interested in recording ensemble moments 00:10:10 Started in live sound in the 1970s Started with Shooting Star 00:12:04 Full circle moments at Rock Hall Mixing the Joe Cocker induction with Tedeschi Trucks Mixing Peter Frampton…a throwback moment 00:17:34 That thought creeps in: “I don't know if I can keep doing this” And then the show happens…with all of its moments! 00:22:34 Learning a band quickly Who's singing?

Join host Lynn Hoffman in this powerful replay episode of The Music Saved Me interview podcast as she sits down with legendary Def Leppard drummer Rick Allen and his wife Lauren Monroe for an unforgettable conversation about music and resilience, purpose, and the healing power of music. Rick Allen’s story is one of rock and roll’s most inspiring tales of triumph over adversity. As the iconic drummer for Def Leppard, Rick faced what seemed like an insurmountable challenge when he lost his left arm in a tragic accident in 1984. But rather than let tragedy end his career, Rick Allen transformed his approach to drumming and returned to Def Leppard stronger than ever, helping the band achieve some of their greatest commercial success with albums like “Hysteria” and “Pyromania.” In this intimate replay conversation which is one of the episodes now part of The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Library and Archives courtesy of Buzz Knight Media Productions, Rick and Lauren Monroe open up about their deep commitment to helping others through the healing power of music. Together, they founded the Raven Drum Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to serving, educating, and empowering veterans and people in crisis through music and the arts. The foundation provides critical support and therapeutic programs that harness music’s transformative abilities to help those facing physical and emotional challenges. Rick and Lauren also discuss their vital work with Musicians On Call, bringing live and recorded music to the bedsides of patients in healthcare facilities. Their dedication to using music as a healing force extends far beyond Def Leppard’s stadium stages, reaching into hospitals, veteran centers, and communities where the healing power of music can make a profound difference in people’s lives. This replay episode captures Lynn Hoffman’s heartfelt discussion with two remarkable individuals who prove that music truly does save lives. Don’t miss this inspiring conversation about overcoming adversity, giving back, and the incredible healing power of music..

When you hear the term “superproducer,” names like George Martin, Quincy Jones, Max Martin, Pharrell Williams or Missy Elliott might come to mind. But … Robert “Mutt” Lange? Probably not. Yet Lange was by some measures the biggest hitmaker—the producer of more top-selling albums than any of those better-known producers. The South African studio wiz crafted the arena-rock sound of AC/DC and Def Leppard. Then, Lange transformed the Cars, Billy Ocean, Bryan Adams, and Shania Twain into fist-pumping stadium-fillers, too. Join Chris Molanphy as he traces Mutt Lange's legacy of loud—and his uncanny success on the pop charts. He poured sugar on every hit. Podcast production by Kevin Bendis.
