Send us Fan MailIn this long overdue episode of Music at a Rational Volume, Nate and Kyle discuss, remember, and deep dive into the Billboard Rock Albums Chart from September 8th of 1984 to give you a "best of the rest" playlist from what could possibly be one of the greatest moments, particularly in terms of cultural relevance, in music history. That may sound hyperbolic, but given the measurably significant albums listed and their hit songs that have permeated rock radio ever since, this was a time that moved and influenced generations of people (And let's be honest, still does).
