Episode 72 - Mascots in Music

Eddie, Vic Rattlehead, Snaggletooth, Korgull the Exterminator, The Not Man, Sargent D. -- what is the purpose of a mascot in music?  What makes a mascot good, and what makes one bad?  Why does it seem like mascots only appear in metal music?  In this episode we examine a few mascots in metal and try to figure out why they exist, and if they are an important part of the bands they represent.We also dive into some listener emails and delve further into what is now being called "The Vader Epidemic," as well as reveal a major twist in the story of the multiple Kyles.   --------------------Hosts:  Jason Walton and Nick Wusz."I Hate Music" theme by Marius Sjoli.  I Hate Music image by Jori Apedaile.Segment intro music by Jori Apedaile, and Adam Stacey.Produced by Jason Walton for Earth in Sound Productions.--------------------Follow us on socials, donate to support the podcast, listen to our playlist on Spotify, and visit us online: I Hate Music LinktreeEmail and listener suggestions to: [email protected]#ihatemusicpodcast**I Hate Music is an Earth in Sound Production**--------------------Hosts: Jason Walton and Nick Wusz.Produced by Jason Walton for Earth in Sound Productions.--------------------Support the podcast by becoming a Patreon member here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠IHM Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow us on socials, donate to support the podcast, and visit us online: ⁠⁠⁠⁠I Hate Music Linktree⁠⁠⁠⁠Email and listener suggestions to: ⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠⁠⁠- Part of the Distorted Paths Podcast Network - Hosted on Acast.
