119: Left Turns In Metal

119: Left Turns In Metal

In traffic, LEFT TURNS are often far more dangerous than right turns, often resulting in far more accidents that sadly, many never fully recover from.

Somehow, the same rule holds true in Metal* (and potentially, even this podcast!) as well: some LEFT TURNS are legendary. But as is (sadly) far too often the case…many LEFT TURNS, not so much.

Prepare for a lot of “marking the time”, find out who “smelled like a peach”, brace yourselves for some moments of “being up cool” tangentionalality* that are barely hanging on by a wispy string of sameness snot and JOIN US “up against the rail” in a “dry diaper” as we touch on BOLTH the recent Atlanta Metallica tour stop and some extremely notable (and legendary) LEFT TURNS in Metal.*

*Metal is tangentional to everything and everything is tangentional to metal. Don’t worry about it.
