We finally have a real Rock place in Pembroke Massachusetts. Is enough room for a real bands like you guys pioneer metal Big show's more money less hotel fees. High on fire please come.

This rules! Thanks Nate

Heartening to hear some Echo love - felt so overlooked when it came out, and is a masterpiece to me.

I only recently discovered Scratch Acid. I found a copy of ‘Just keep eating’ at a garage sale for $1, and it looked interesting, and it’s awesome!

He’s the best guest. He embodies what this podcast is all about.

Great, I have met Henry twice once before a show once after, the nicest guy who scares the hell out of me

Great stuff Nate!

I love how you have Fugazi's Steady Diet Of Nothing in a Frank Zappa vinyl video.

Wow , what a unique individual. So glad he made his way to Australia back in the day . What a band , we were never the same 🎶🎶🎸

Any update for the new 2LP reissues?

🥰🥰🥰

If VJ had any belief that the Beatles would be as profitable and as enduring as they have been, I’m sure they would’ve found a way to finance immediate production of the album and payment of fees to TransGlobal. I believe at the time both VJ and Capitol thought Beatlemania was a temporary fad. As I told Counselor Spizer at our last Beatles fest: “imagine Hard Day’s Night on VJ!”

Maybe we can apply to Fat Mike that at least he puts The Distillers into his museum. Someone from our group just visited and The Distillers are not there. We guess that you know them and that Mike knows them. They are one of the defining punk bands of our time, from music to voice to songwriting they are quite outstanding to say the least. Their new album is finished, and withheld because of the demanding divorce case of the singer. People widely believe The Distillers are actively being dismissed by Fat Mike because of personal differences between Rancid's and The Distillers' Front members - which has caused a destructive polarisation in the punk community - musicians and audience alike. Well, the people around do not think that. Fat Mike so far seems are very community committed guy having good punk ethics in his DNA, but the tragic history along the Rancid singer divorce from the Distillers singer was basically an active destruction of the community spirit among U.S. punk bands, to keep it that objective. Long Issue short: Maybe ask Fat Mike what the difficulty with The Distillers is? - - - Paramore are of diverse influences, but the Distillers for example are fully legit and iconic punk of our time. Why are they not in Fat Mike's display?

Awesome episode.

Guitar beast!!! Yeah Tom

I got to meet Anthrax 3 times during the John Bush era. Toronto 1998, Toronto 2003 and Buffalo 2003. Awesome guys!!! Last time they all signed my WCFYA purple vinyl. I remember Charlie saying he didn’t even know it came out on vinyl 😂😂

Great interview 💯💯💯

AUSTRALIA!!!!! PLease Melbourne is on!

third/big sister is a great album c'mooooon

Fantastic that Red Eye and Utopia persist. Sad that Sydney has no more HMV, Sanity, Virgin, Brashs or Ashwoods.

Now, Ipecac have finally released all 3 Bungle LPs in a box-set. Have not purchased yet (seems obscenely expensive to me, but I know I will buckle eventually). If it actually sounds better than the MOV/Music On Vinyl pressing, I will be shocked (and happy, obviously!), as that pressing is just stellar. PLAIN recordings sucks. NEVER support them. And they're not European - they're a 'proud' USA company. Just the worst.

Ray and Robby wrote the music. Jim wrote lyrics and melodies and to me was the greatest vocalist in Rock history. John banged on the drums but thinks he was as much a part of the Doors as they were. Sorry John but without those 3 guys nobody would’ve ever heard your name and you are pissed they used the Doors name after Jim died? They were the Doors

Any news on The Naked Show damn I got so excited & this is 6 years ago....PLEASE get Johnette to interview long like this it's AMAZING deep diving not just for a listener I'm sure she gets a new neuron or two on reflection as well. Just ADORE her spirit!! Xxo

The reason they accumulated so many great records with multiple pressings of the same rare item is due to how they price which is to price on demand. The reason for this is due to the fluctuations in the market. Can you imagine having to change prices on that many records? Clearly the price on the fly method hurts their sales but it’s how they do it. They will haggle with you so pick out what you want and make a fair offer.

Da Slyme! One of the wildest punk bands of them all.. with a sense of humour.

Yes, agree analogue is better. Great to hear from Hugh who is not only one of the best songwriters but a clever lead guitarist with simple and very effective licks on Stranglers songs.

groove washer

I hope you interview August is falling one day. Listening to that band cured my eczema and I hear the band gives hot tubs to special fans

His videos are great

Tom didn’t give the other guys the chance to contribute . The singer should have gotten royalties just for his quality vocals alone. The albums would not have been nearly as big without those perfect vocals give me a break.! I have no respect for Tom or anyone who wants to keep all credit to themselves. What a crock and it’s such a sad blemish that will taint Boston forever more for me and it should taint Boston for EVERYONE!! Terrible. So what if the other members got some money?? Oh boo hoo Tom would be a few million less rich😂 My God what a monster. Just my opinion and I don’t really care if anyone disagrees. I’ll never listen to Boston without thinking what a money grubber Tom was and it’s all his fault not mine or anyone else’s fault. Tom made his legacy.

How is the inner groove distortion on the bronze compared to the blue? Thanks!

Just amazing! Thanks so much for the insight Tom!😊

INSANELY GREAT!!! MUSIC!!!

INSANELY GREAT!!! MUSIC!!!

Video starts around 1:00 :36

All through the 80s Boston was what I blasted from my car playing frisbee in the park. Just goes perfect with sunshine and exercise.

Rn im using a 13x13 subwoofer n a massage gun case to flatten my record, imma try leaving for about 3-4 days

I wish he talked about Brad’s contribution to the songs. Did Tom say Brad, sing this way or did Brad suggest Hey, I’ll go low or high here?

I dont want secret concoction i need whats safe an correct distilled water and99 percent pure alcohol

I just came across this. Fantastic interview. You asked questions that I would ask. Very enlightening on the digital sampling rate and capturing (or not) the waveforms of the music.

Great interview, like the band and like the music. They are as good as it gets.

love the deep dive about the pressing. very interesting.

Gotta love some “Tapeworm Tom” and the entire “Boner Bibliography”

Delightful conversation!! Thank you 🤘

I like Dolly Parton but I'm sorry she is not Rock n Roll. She is country. BOSTEN represents the BEST in rock n roll and absolutely deserves to be inducted. Tom is a genius and has proved it many times over....I love them ❤️
