Brilliant to listen in on a really cracking interview. Great questions, really fascinating hearing everything from Steve's perspective. Well worth a listen to every minute. Power Quest seem to be eternally underrated and slept on so thank you for shining a spotlight on a band which should be on every melodic metal fan's radar \m/

Probably the most underrated metal band of their era. People were just stupid to pass on Nevermore.

Thank you so much for this amazing video! Could you help me with something unrelated: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?

Oh I get it now WTF!!!???

WTF what?

Excellent!

@Justin - I am a long time Stratovarius fan, and was very happy to hear about Timo Tolkki's new material on bandcamp. I then found he has a new website. I read on a blog post that he may only be releasing his new stuff on bandcamp, as the percentage of the digital music sales that goes to the artist is very high... somthing around 78% or so. Keep up the great work guys. My favorite part of each podcast is hearing about all the new albums each of you had listened to this past week.

This album got some of the best production ever

I'm glad the world is finding out about Maestrick!

What red are you drinking Justin?

Lunar Sanctum is so good, agreed

I had to skip Megadeth this past Wed due to being sick but recovered quick enough to see Stryper at Mohegan Sun last Friday...and did get Dream Theater tickets (well ticket since I'm going solo 1😁)

So excited to relive the week! I’m gonna save this for the morning, but I’m very glad to see you guys get your recap up so quickly

"Pool It!" one of the Monkees best albums? I never experienced it that way. I would even prefer Changes to "Pool It!" I do love "Justus". I liked it when it first came out, and have developed an even deeper appreciation for it as time has gone on. Interestingly, in 1999 the Chocolate Watchband (an act that also experienced a resurgence with the aid of Rhino records) also cut a new album which similarly featured the band in total musical control, and blended their classic '60's sounds with contemporary production: Get Away.

Amazing. I got this album and literally am obsessed with it. Incredible work of art.

Loved the episode, d00dz! 🤪 I still remember being completely blown away by these guys at ProgPower VII in 2006, and am glad that you've covered this album (and The Hours That Remain prior.) Keep up the good work! 🤘😎🤘

24:51 LOL

Enjoyed that immensely and could not agree more that freak is a good tune but out of place.

This album is special to me, so I clicked immediately. I had only checked out the Dead Heart in a Dead World episodes, some months back, but I will definitely sub and check more stuff out. Thanks for the great content.

I like this album, but certainly it's not an essential Angra album. My favorite from the album is Lisbon. 1:04:20 YES!!!!

The new Sebastian bach is great 👍.

Heaven's Edge self title is a awesome album to😂😂😂. Widowmaker blood and bullets, Vince Neil exposed and the scream let it scream.all of those albums are great.I still love them.

Glad Jeff mentioned Stuck Mojo! "Balls" is the definition of their sound

Acres of pee cans.

The Nevermore version of Sound of Silence is my favourite version. It sounds so sinister and malevolent.

a Nevermore comeback is on time , there are amazing singers waiting to be called !!! if anybody can tell the band this, please do it !!!!

54:20 I love Prisoner of Your Love, probably my favorite Malmsteen ballad. This is one of the most balanced albums Malmsteen put out (alongside Facing the Animal). There's something for everybody. And Vescera is a hell of a singer.

WTF?

I just casually listened to the album the other day. I was very surprised.

You need to interview Andy Edwards, he is very proficient on KZbin

Wow, big one and unexpected

No way! I was hoping for an Evergrey review, and you picked my favorite album from them. I'm interested to hear about what y'all think of When The Walls Go Down.

THANK GOD you're *FINALLY* doing an Evergrey episode. Not doing them for over 200 episodes is borderline criminal. You were this >< close to getting indicted. 🤪

A huge Mithotyn and Falconer fan here. Thanks for the interview that enabled us to absorb what Stefan thinks and feels about his creation. I hope we can keep hearing more from him in the future.

I hope they check out Control Denied, with chuck on guitars, and Tim Aymar from Pharaoh on vocals. It's right up their alley, musically.

Great job metal dudes! I really like the classification as "alt-metal".... serves it better because this album is basically a kitchen-sink of styles. I totally support your picks of the week too, both of those songs I have been completely obsessed with in times past. "Fight for Life" does have a one of the best choruses, but what gets me is it's the first time you hear the tremolo/ambient/shoegaze sound on the album, and it just takes my ears to outer space every time, along with that CHONK from the guitar. Hymn of a Broken Man is also so massive, a definite win in the "Title Track" column. Chock full of great elements, lyrics, and screams! Very fun hearing your thoughts on the album, and all the comparisons. As far as the classic KSE albums, The End of Heartache is probably the most recognized work from the Howard Jones era. With Jesse Leach, I would say Disarm the Descent, but that one is a little more subjective. They have shades of comparison this album, but they are definitely their own thing as well.

This is such a gift for every NEVERMORE fan. Thank you!!! Had to add, We Disintegrate and Engines of Hate my favorite tracks from the album, though it's so hard to choose.

Thanks guys for the deep dive into "The Zornheim Sleep Experiment"!

Elegy-supermacy you need to cover turns 30 this year

Kudos for discussing this album. But you guys need to do your research. "Stripped down"? This album is anything but. Lots of tracks, nuance, and layers going on throughout, due to Mike Shipley's influence (who comes from the Mutt Lange school of production/mixing). Also, "less money" going into the production? The album cost $300,000 to make, which Kip has widely disclosed. That's a big-budget production by any standard, not to mention for a band of Winger's ilk in 1993.

Will always be my favorite Edguy album. It was my introduction to them and saw them on that tour opening for Hammerfall in Worcester 8/13/05.

This is basically the Album that made me a power metal fan. So glad to hear you guys talk about it

Cómo se llama la banda que mencionó Jeff? Suck moyo?? Algo así

Brilliant band! Brilliant album!

This interview could have been quite a bit longer and more in depth, even just on Dead Heart in a Dead World. I am suprised there was no mention of the solo from Engines of Hate. That solo is one for the ages!

Thanks so much again for the support, guys! I really enjoyed this one 🙂 Keep up the good work!

Huge fan of Part 2, not so much of Part 1.

20+ years ago, I too was more into the metal and always looking for more metal but I also loved Pink Floyd. These days, I enjoy the Dream Sequencer just as much, if not just a tiny bit more than Universal Migrator.

I was hoping you were going to invite him to ProgPower in Atlanta when you started talking about Damien performing and doing a couple Ayreon songs at it... Bet Glenn was too. 🤪🤣

So cool that you guys got Arjen on the show
