#239 Bootleg Edition - Album Dive - Killers

Welcome to the inaugural episode of the Metal Nerdery Podcast “Bootleg Edition” series, recorded deep within the echoey underground confines of The Bunkerpoon, direct from The Bunkerpoon video feed. While we strive to be “The Black Album of Podcasts” (in terms of sheer production quality), we decided to see what it might sound like if Bob Rock produced the podcast equivalent of St. Anger (which is still Bob Rock btw…just sayin’). Think of this episode as “the raw demo” edition of Metal Nerdery Podcast before Rock & Rubin come in to transform it into the Black Album of the Reign in Blood of the St. Anger of the Death Magnetic of Metal Nerdery Podcast. If you’re blessed enough to have relaxers on hand, we feel you might enjoy the “unusual” vibe of this episode a tad more than usual.

IRON MAIDEN’s 2nd album (and final album with frontman Paul Di’Anno), KILLERS, is the transition album that bridged the gap between the Di’Anno era and the Dickinson era and ultimately transformed Maiden into the progressive metal powerhouse that they are today. With Side 1 full of NWOBHM riffs that are more reminiscent of “punk rock metal” and Side 2 containing all the best aspects of 70’s prog rock (assuming you’re following along on either vinyl or cassette), there are a multitude of textures, sounds, and styles on this album that would close out the Di’Anno era quite nicely, offering a glimpse of the dynamic musical expansion that would soon follow.

It’s time to re-think definitions and rebrand horrific offenses because “It’s never funny when it happens to you” (and also because ”it can happen to dudes, too.”).

Discover which artist represents the birth of the new genre known as “Dungeon Doom metal”, as well as an obscure Valentines’ Day conspiracy theory. Find out why you should NEVER listen to our podcast while in a Chik-Fil-A drive-thru (especially if “macaroni and cheese” is involved), behold the glaring difference between “Genghis” and GENGHIS Khan (the biggest rapper known “across the world”) and THANK YOU for taking the time to JOIN US as we dive into IRON MAIDEN: KILLERS.
