Episode 866: 1986...66

from Radioactive Metal · host Snowy White

1986 was an absolute barnburner of a year. Numerous, now veteran bands and artists hit the garage for the first time. So many now classic albums hit the racks then onto our turntables and ghetto blasters. And there were new stories that rocked all of Metaldom. As well, this year, believe it or not, 1986 turns 40 years young. So as is tradition 'round here, we're doing a deep dive into this banner year. So for the young'ens, this will be quite educational. For the veterans, this will be an awesome strut down memory lane. Musically, we crank some Terrorizer, Hirax, Manilla Road, All Pigs Must Die, Kat, Traitor, Burning Path and we introduce Chile's Caprice Steel in our "Indie Spotlight". Horns up!!
