This Week on America’s Podcast: Metallica, Flemming Rasmussen, and Pure Mayhem!

Buckle up, metalheads, because this week we welcome the mighty Favio Vegas to the show as we dive headfirst into the sonic chaos of Flemming Rasmussen’s legendary trilogy—the three Metallica albums that melted faces, shattered speakers, and arguably set a bar so high even Metallica themselves never quite climbed back over it. Yep, we’re talking about Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, and …And Justice for All! Are these truly the best Metallica albums ever? Did the band peak in '88? And is Flemming Rasmussen the most underrated producer in metal history? We’ve got a lot to say, and we’re bringing the riffs to back it up! No more spoilers, you’ll just have to listen.

🎸 Jerry: Tangerine – Led Zeppelin (A mellow pick, but hey, even Vikings need to rest.) ⚡ Marc: High Speed Dirt – Megadeth (Skydiving at 120 mph? Sounds about right.) 🤘 Favio: Out of Sight, Out of Mind – Anthrax (For when you need a thrash therapy session.) 🔥 Mooger: Pick a Window – Flotsam and Jetsam (Or just smash through the wall instead!)

Until next time, keep it loud, keep it heavy, and whatever you do—don’t blast Metallica while driving alone… unless you enjoy explaining your speeding ticket to the judge.

Merry New Year and Happy Holidays and Christmas! Holiday Special 

Welcome, metalheads and holiday enthusiasts, to this week's episode of America's Podcast! Today, we're diving headfirst into the world of Christmas metal with our review of the album "We Wish You A Metal XMas And A Headbanging New Year." So, grab your Santa hats and devil horns, because things are about to get festive and loud! Now, let's address the burning question on everyone's minds: is this album seasonal or just a load of crap? Well, fear not, dear listeners, for we shall not spoil the surprise. We'll keep you hanging on the edge of your mistletoe until the very end.

As we press play, we're greeted with the delightful sound of jingle bells mixed with thunderous guitar riffs. It's like Santa himself decided to form a band with a bunch of rowdy elves. The result? A headbanging holiday extravaganza that's sure to make your eggnog curdle with excitement.

Picture this: you're sipping hot cocoa by the fireplace, surrounded by twinkling lights and tinsel. Suddenly, the speakers blast out a heavy metal rendition of "Jingle Bells" that would make even the Grinch crack a smile. It's a bizarre yet strangely satisfying combination of festive cheer and face-melting guitar solos.

But wait, there's more! This album is a star-studded affair, featuring some of the biggest names in metal. From Alice Cooper to Lemmy Kilmister, it's a Christmas miracle to have so much talent in one place. Each artist brings their own unique twist to the holiday classics, injecting them with a heavy dose of rock 'n' roll spirit.

As we journey through the tracklist, we encounter some unexpected surprises. Who knew that "Silent Night" could be transformed into a headbanging anthem? Or that "God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen" could be transformed into a mosh pit-inducing masterpiece? It's safe to say that this album is full of delightful twists and turns that will keep you on your toes.

So, dear listeners, as we reach the end of our review, we must leave you with a tantalizing cliffhanger. Is "We Wish You A Metal XMas And A Headbanging New Year" a seasonal gem or a load of reindeer droppings? You'll have to tune in and find out for yourself!

In the meantime, we wish you all a Merry Christmas, filled with laughter, joy, and of course, some headbanging holiday tunes. Stay metal, stay festive, and remember to rock around the Christmas tree! Tracks Of The Week: Marc, “Father Christmas “ By The Kinks and we end it With Mooger's Pick “Christmas Eve Sarajevo” by Trans Siberian Orchestra Until Next Week Spike that egg nog and party on!

This Week on America’s Podcast! Join us as Tim Wirasnik, the man who may or may not like anything, steps into the ring for our review of Alter Bridge’s latest masterpiece, *Pawns and Kings*. Will this album bless us with a Season of Promise, or will it make us feel like we're caught in an epic battle of epicness? We promise—no spoilers! In our Tracks of the Week segment, Mooger brings us “Take The Long Way” by Tuk Smith and the Restless Hearts to remind us that sometimes, the scenic route is the best route. Jerry goes all in with “Crowded Room” by House of Lords, proving that sometimes, a little chaos makes for great music. Tim champions “Safe Home” by Anthrax—because who doesn’t love a good reminder to keep it safe? And we wrap things up with Marc’s pick, “Take My Soul” by The Dead Daisies, which is basically the soundtrack to a rock ’n’ roll exorcism! Until next week, folks: buy physical media, snag some merch, and support your favorite artists! And don’t forget to take a couple of shots; after all, there's always a groove waiting just around the corner! Cheers!
