The new Avenged Sevenfold album, “Life Is But A Dream,” arrives this Friday, June 2nd, and there are a couple of very good reasons for the long delay! There was the pandemic and the havoc it wrecked on the recording process, and then there was singer M. Shadows’ vocal cord issues that almost ended his music career! Shads details the problem with his vocal cords, and explains the long process, numerous doctors and one surgery it took for him to regain his singing voice. He also speaks to the creative process behind this album and what inspired A7X to expand their musical horizons and experiment more in their songwriting. He talks about the role that AI (remember their fake-cancelled appearance at Welcome To Rockville?), Web3, and NFTs play in the band, the music, and their vision moving forward. And he weighs in the Helloween reunion!   Thank you for supporting our sponsors! Gametime – Download the Gametime app, create an account, and use the promo code TIJ to get $20 off.

The BlahBum Bunch has been called to order to debate the merits of the most critically-panned album of KISS’ career, “The Music Of The Elder.” BlahBum members Corey Taylor of CMFT, Slipknot & Stone Sour fame, guitarist Zach Throne, and Chris Jericho question the album sequencing, and scratch their heads over songwriting, production, players, and even the cover art. They talk about Ace Frehley’s minimal contribution and imminent departure, the arrival of Eric Carr on drums, and the return of Bob Ezrin to the producer seat. They’ve got some fantastic trivia about The Elder movie that never happened, the music videos that never released, and Paul Stanley’s text response when asked about “Music from The Elder.” And like almost every other member of the KISSArmy, they have plenty of theories and thoughts about the impact this particular album had on the direction of KISS’ career and future at the time.   Thank you for supporting our sponsors!

Mark Briscoe had his debut singles match on AEW Dynamite on his late brother Jamin’s birthday. He talks about that bittersweet moment along with how he’s coping with Jamin’s tragic loss. Mark recounts how the brothers got into wrestling from their backyard ring built by dad to the VHS tapes they’d mail to wrestling schools as high school teenagers begging for a shot. He explains how Jim Kettner & ECWA gave them their first big break and their tag team name, The Briscoe Brothers. He shares the brothers WWE tryout experience, how they landed at ROH, and why they always loved feuding with Kevin Steen (aka Kevin Owens) and El Generico (aka Sami Zayn). Plus, Mark breaks down the Briscoe Brothers’ matches at AEW with FTR including how the angle started, their instant chemistry, and the bonding moment in the locker room that also broke the ice.   Thank you for supporting our sponsors!
