This edition of the DBG Times covers a wide range of rock and metal history, along with notable Rockstar Deathdays honoring Phil Lynott, Neil Peart, Steve Clark, Eddie Clarke, Sylvain Sylvain, and John Sykes. Looking back 10 years to 2016, the show revisits releases from Black Sabbath and Megadeth, including Sabbath's final studio-era material and Megadeth's well-received return to a heavier, more classic sound. From 2001, we highlight Turn 21 by The Donnas, an album that helped solidify their identity and garner more recognition. Going back 30 years to 1996, the discussion includes albums from Accept and Mr. Big, reflecting a challenging era as traditional hard rock and metal faced shifting trends. At 35 years (1991), we touch on notable releases by David Lee Roth, Drivin' N Cryin', and Motörhead, showcasing the variety of sounds coming out of the early '90s. Looking at 1986, we revisit Seventh Star by Black Sabbath and the long-delayed debut of White Lion, two releases with very different paths and outcomes. From 1981, the episode covers peak-era albums by 38 Special, April Wine, and Styx, all enjoying major commercial success during this period. Jumping back 50 years to 1976, we discuss releases from Bad Company and Grand Funk Railroad, each facing internal and external challenges at different points in their careers. Wrapping up the historical portion at 55 years (1971), we explore early albums from ZZ Top, Mountain, Lucifer's Friend, and Dust, capturing the formative years of heavy rock and metal. The episode also includes a rundown of new rock and metal releases, featuring recent albums from Alter Bridge, Bullet, Kreator, Gluecifer, Helix, and a final studio release tied to the farewell era of Megadeth.

Part One | Part Two | Part Three“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”― Sun Tzu, The Art of WarBecause Donald Trump understands this fundamental rule of The Art of War, he reached a compromise in Minneapolis. It was an easy shift for him because he knows himself and he knows the enemy.He knows all they wanted was months of warfare and chaos between ICE agents and the citizen army on the ground, who are now becoming an organized militia, some of them even arming themselves, all in hopes of producing viral content for the churn to keep the hearts and minds of their voters activated and mobilized ahead of the midterms.They wanted him to show up as the dictator, to crack down on protests like the United States had suddenly become Iran. But Trump is too smart for that. He knows once he becomes the version of him they invented, the war is over. He also knows they will ignore the important news of his presidency. The economy is strengthening, crime is declining, and Trump continues to make big moves on the global stage.By contrast, the left is losing but thinks it's winning because they don't know themselves. If they did, they would understand that the clever game they're playing only takes them so far. Creating chaos throughout 2020 meant they scared Americans into voting Trump out and putting the Obama coalition back in power. But they were the dog that caught the car. They had no idea what to do once Joe Biden took office.It was worse than that. Biden failed in his first major move as president with the botched exit from Afghanistan that left 13 soldiers dead and sparked two wars, as world leaders laughed in our faces at the man in the White House.As Biden's numbers began to fall, and America woke up from the haze of fear from 2020, they wondered why they ever voted out the guy with the strong economy to begin with, and why they were now stuck with a whole new set of rules we were all meant to follow.In truth? Biden was the face of normalcy for the fanatical cult that has now consumed the Democratic Party. They are the socialist socialites who are both the ruling class and the oppressor/oppressed fundamentalists who have no place for America's silent majority anymore. When the story of this moment is told by their ever-reliable unreliable narrators, they will cast themselves as the Underground Railroad to free the slaves or the Kindertransport to save Jewish children from the Nazis.So we have to ask them and make them answer: who is it they're liberating now? What are they fighting for? Mass migration? Open borders? True, they want to keep the 10-20 million who crossed over under Biden and will vote blue no matter who, but what is the endgame here? Do they even know?Trump's greatest blessing and his tragic flaw is that he cannot lose. That's what makes him a great leader; whether he's leading a family, a business, or a country, he wants to win. When you're standing behind him, you get to be a winner too.Some in his base want him to step on the gas, to crack down on protesters and not back off from Minneapolis, but as with so many hard calls Trump has had to make in his second term, he has to somehow find his way through the storm as a guy who, in the end, trusts only himself because he knows himself. If he became the dictator now just to please those in his base, he'd be eaten alive by the empire.They Don't Understand ThemselvesThe chaos in Minneapolis was designed for the legacy media. It was resistance theater that played well on the Nightly News and on social media. The objective, as we now know from the Signal chats and the ongoing soldier training for activists, was to push ICE agents into acting out, to capture those viral moments to paint a picture in the minds of social media users—ICE are violent thugs, they will conclude.If you see enough video of ICE agents pushing women to the ground and detaining children, well, what is a normal person to think? How could the polls not result in the Left's favor? What you don't see is everything that led up to it. You don't see how many times ICE agents are assaulted, obstructed, body slammed, screamed at, spat on, with whistles blaring in their ears, stalked, harassed, and doxxed.But on the Left, they don't see that side of the story, just like they didn't see that side of the story in 2020. The mob terrorizes citizens, and law enforcement and the media call it mostly peaceful protests. I was on the Left. I know that no one was allowed to talk about the violence lest they'd be called a racist. But not being able to say the truth, let alone know the truth, meant we were all walking around in a constant state of confusion. We all knew that Derek Chauvin did not murder George Floyd, but we had to say he did. We knew Trump wasn't bragging about sexual assault on the Access Hollywood tape, but we had to say we did. We knew that many of the Me Too cases were either made up or greatly exagerrated but we would be punished if we questioned any of it.Each side gets its own version of events, but these were never two equal sides. The Left still has most of the media power, says Megyn Kelly:But they have become too comfortable with confirmation bias and their ability to control the narrative that they no longer even know what is true.Important words have lost all meaning: Fascist, racist, dictator, resistance, democracy, racist, rapist, pedophile, man, woman, boy, girl, abortion is healthcare, trans women are women. Every time someone blurts out “regime,” or “occupation,” “insurrectionist,” “election denier,” “anti-vaxxer,” or “anti-masker” we are conditioned to snap to attention. Once the words are gone, and the Newspeak implemented, it's easy to lie in headlines for the same reasons. An image is even more powerful than words. Those lies meant we could not know ourselves or the enemy. We were led around by hyperbole and caught up in a dreamscape where nothing is entirely real. That meant comedians, Hollywood, and politicians couldn't really read the room, but they had to mirror that delusion, lest they get booted out of utopia too.Recently, Scott Bessent gifted Gavin Newsom with a nickname that will stick. “Sparkle Beach, Ken.” It's funny because it's true. When Newsom then tried to play on Trump's level with the knee-pads joke, it fell flat because it isn't true. Trump isn't that guy. If they knew themselves, they would understand that they are not the working-class poor who have any business marching around with No Kings posters. If they knew themselves, they would shut up about the Epstein Files because they know it's way worse on the Democrat side. If they knew themselves, they would not shout “fascist” because they would know that they are, at heart, the real fascists.If they knew themselves, they would understand why, even now, they are still the crazier side, and no matter the smoke and mirrors, the chaos, the viral videos, the mass hysteria, they can't do the one thing they would need to do to win this war: offer the people something better.If they knew themselves, they would understand that the Boy Who Cried Wolf was not just a children's story. It is a deeply profound statement about people who scream about everything until their screams fall on indifferent ears. The only reason they've gotten this far with their madness is that Trump isn't a fascist or a dictator, because if he wanted to, he could crush all of these folks like bugs as the Commander in Chief of the most powerful military in the world. They also don't seem to realize that a handful of granola crunchers arming themselves is no match for MAGA, either, should it ever come to that. The only reason the Right hasn't yet taken up arms reminds me of that scene in Grizzly Man where the bears think there might be something wrong with Timothy Treadwell, so they leave him alone, at least for a little while.But when one bear gets frustrated and hungry enough, we see just how easy it was for the bear to eat Timothy and his girlfriend in the Grizzly Maze.They don't know TrumpThe Democrats have been fighting a villain they created, but who never existed. I was one of those who sobbed on my couch after 2016, donated to Jill Stein, marched in protest, and felt myself part of the resistance. I would take to the treadmill at the gym to the Styx song Come Sail Away and I would imagine making a video to rally the troops on the Left. I would think those MAGA “racists” are not prepared for the strength of our battlestation. We have all of this power, and they have none of it. And yet, even as I imagined this, I didn't realize what I was saying because I didn't know myself, or my side, and I most certainly didn't know Trump and MAGA. What would snap me out of it was seeing what we eventually did with our power. It wasn't a grassroots uprising. It was one political party becoming more powerful than any other and then using that power to demonize, dehumanize, and marginalize half the country. When we decided we had the right to take over the 2020 election to “save Democracy” that was when I began to pull back.I was like Linda Hamilton in Terminator 2, who sees the guy she thinks is there to kill her, but instead, he's the guy who has come to save her.Because we didn't know ourselves back in 2016, we had to cover up our failures with lies about Trump. We concocted a false World War II fantasy where we were the “resistance.” Once we started that big lie, we were doomed because there was no way out of it, and there still isn't.I would find out in 2020 that all I got from the legacy media was the worst things Trump said, extracted from a much longer speech to paint a picture of someone who did not exist. I had to find that out all on my own, knowing that to do so would cost me everything. Why should just humanizing the other half of the country cost me everything? Because that is what the Left has become. Here is Chamath Palihapitiya on the Katie Miller podcast:Recently, Washington Examiner writer Kimberly Ross tried it on X with the following tweet:But of course, the truth is not something they're ready for. There is no way out for them, not because of who Trump is, but because of who they are. They just haven't figured it out.In my very wealthy, very white, and very Liberal town, there is a shop with a Buddha fountain outside, with shelves lined with spirituality and self-help. Outside, a red sign of rage. If you keep walking toward the Buddha fountain, you'll also see this sign, stabbed into the dirt on the other side.Their lawn sign isn't just an admission of how little they know themselves; it is also a manifesto. Just as they demand yet another impeachment of Trump, they also demand that you see the world the way they do, or else. But just remember, love wins.// This is a public episode.

Our critical review of The Secrets of Greek Mysticism by George Lizos, and why this book is so problematic in its ideologies, from starseed propaganda to Mr. Lizos's rejection of scholarship.Why have online “influencers” promoted this book to their audiences? Many of their critiques focus on surface-level issues, such as the absence of Hades or Hekate, Xenia and Dionysus while missing the far more serious problem: this book aligns itself with New Age propaganda and ancient alien beliefs, ultimately leading people astray in their understanding of ancient Greek history, mythology, and ancient Greek religion.Chapters:(00:00) Why are we doing this?(08:04) The starseed propaganda(18:55) Claims all scholars are wrong?(29:35) Greek gods are love and light?(36:03) Zeus isn't a monarch, ascension and soul contracts?(41:35) Misogynistic view on goddesses(44:50) Artemis is “control”?(49:41) Hera is the maiden, mother and crone?(53:12) Hestia is boring and blasé?(58:24) The apple of discord and his theology?(1:00:14) Where is the “mysticism”?(1:09:15) Calling out the “influencers” that promoted this bookCalling all devotees to Styx and Bones that are content creators!

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.

STYX - BABE - (Nu Disco Remix) JOE NARDI RECODE by NAW-T-BOY
The Steelers have had their ups and downs this year, and while Aaron Rodgers has been winning over at least some reluctant hearts, there was a moment this season when fans were so livid they booed our most beloved power anthem: Styx's 1979 hit "Renegade." To understand why this was such a big deal, we're revisiting our episode about why the song is so special here, how it became the Steelers' secret weapon, and whether this anthem produces tangible results or is all just superstition. **This episode originally aired on September 1, 2022.

It's Thanksgiving in Val Verde, and while the rest of the station's staff takes the day off, Whisp Turlington and Geoff “The Angry Man” Garlock are stuck doing a full-day broadcast — turkey cooker under Art Spart's board, sponsored by Bert's Funeral Flowers.Everything's normal until a familiar blonde head appears on the Hawk's ring camera:Tommy Shaw from Styx.Before they can hit the delay, Tommy locks the station gates and holds the station hostage, demanding they play Kilroy Was Here in full — claiming it's “the real Thanksgiving record.”What follows is a broadcast filled with stuffing, softcore cinema, Styx lore and 108.9 The Hawk's most festive hostage situation yet.While you're getting all your Black Friday junk, why don't you also help out you favorite classic rock radio station!Subscribe to the podcast on Apple, Spotify, YouTube — or whatever app you use.

Dennis DeYoung, formerly of STYX says it's a real shame that the hall makes some artists wait till they are so old they cannot enjoy the honor!
Jefferson Starship is an oddly overlooked band on classic rock radio. In the annals of late 70s-into-the-80s corporate AOR radio rock and roll, they sat firmly and fittingly with Boston, The Cars, REO, Styx, Foreigner, and the rest of that gang. While those bands still get their four cuts played repeatedly on the classic rocker stations (and burn those few cuts out), Jefferson Starship was quietly placed to the side. Hmm. Let's revisit the rock of their catalog and see what we think.
The boys are pleased to welcome back to the show #STYX singer and keyboardist #LawrenceGowan, who talks about their current tour, the release of their latest and 18th studio album Circling From Above, what it was like transitioning from a solo artist to a member of the band in a major line up revamp and more.

This week we look at the daimonic goddess Styx, who is a personification of the river in Hades, but is also associated with Hatred. Her children are Victory, Force, and Rivalry, and Zeus rewarded her help in the Titanomachy by making the gods swear oaths upon her waters. Why do the qualities of a valiant warrior have their origin in a god of hatred? Is it a statement about war, or something else? The psychological possibilities may surprise you.
We have some important announcements that you won't want to miss this episode! The girls are changing the temple, we're talking about Zeus's Temple and statue that was considered an ancient wonder and making bargains with Hades and Persephone for more time with the living as we prepare for next weeks episode about Orpheus and Eurydice.Chapters:0:00 — What are the girls doing?4:22 — MAJOR Temple Changes!!15:26 — The girls are going to Athens and Eleusis22:38 — Zeus at Olympia an Ancient Wonder29:47 — Orpheus and Eurydice36:26 — Bargaining with Hades and PersephoneCheck out our Patreon, Styx and Bones Temple's Store, Blogs and more! https://beacons.ai/styxandbonessFOLLOW STYX AND BONES ON SOCIAL MEDIAhttps://www.instagram.com/styxandbonespodcastFOLLOW HIGH PRIESTESS CHELSEAhttps://www.instagram.com/highpriestesschelseaFOLLOW DR.

We explore the realms of the Greek Underworld and what actually happens to a soul after death in ancient Greek belief.We break down the role of Hades and Persephone as rulers of the dead, the function of the Three Judges, and how souls are sorted into each realm. We also talk about who truly ends up in Tartarus and why it was not a place for the average person, but a punishment reserved for those that trick and disrespect the gods.
