#185 Most OVERPLAYED and UNDERRATED Songs in Metal

“It’s the ‘You Shook Me All Night Long’ of ‘Kill ‘em All’…”

Thanks to the “radio homogenization” resulting from the 1996 Telecommunications Act which prompted a handful of corporations to buy up all the radio stations and systematically destroy them by repeatedly violating our ear holes and airwaves with the same overrated, pre-programmed, 6-song playlist (like some Clockwork Orange style mind control experiment run amok), there are A LOT of songs out there that have been so completely overplayed into oblivion that we could do without EVER hearing them again EVER in life: whether live in concert or on the radio during the daytime…EVER!

But on the other hand, there are the more underrated deep cuts. The songs which disc jockeys with a genuine passion for music would often play whenever they wanted (yes, even in the daytime). Songs which got better over time and were never overplayed to the point of a listener’s disgust & scorn. Songs which are the antithesis of the ones referenced above in that we actually ENJOY hearing those songs and would prefer hearing them more often (like on the radio…during the daytime).

JOIN US for a special guest presentation courtesy of Dick Taintler and embrace the concept of “peanut butter, bacon, and jelly sandwiches” while discovering which words are considered “fighting words” that you simply can’t EVER utter (not even in jest) as we perform our personal evaluation of some of the most OVERPLAYED and UNDERRATED songs in all of rock and metal.
