Episode 553: Sidestepping the Sophomore Slump

On Baconsale Episode 503, Joel, Kent, and Zack shared some of the best and worst debut albums of popular bands. Now, we’re following up that conversation with a direct sequel. It’s going to be more personal, a little darker, and somewhat edgier. First of all, we’re going to discuss the second albums of the artists previously discussed. Following that, we’ll share our picks for the best sophomore albums of all time. Though, despite Zack’s best efforts, we mostly stay in the 90s. We’re kind of predictable that way. And even though this episode will flop now, audiences will begin to appreciate it years down the road.   Press play to get Pinkertoned!   Also, visit Baconsale.com to listen to some of the sophomoric songs we mentioned on this episode on our official Spotify playlist.
