S6 – Ep 12 | 1983 Album Picks, Power Ballad Either/Or & Music Trends Talk

Let Us Know Your Thoughts!Craig and Kevin head into 1983 this week, spotlighting two albums that hit very different corners of the rock spectrum.Kevin kicks things off with Fastway’s self-titled debut, a hard-hitting blend of bluesy riffs and arena-ready energy that helped define early ‘80s hard rock. Craig follows with Killing Joke’s Fire Dances, a darker, atmospheric release that leans into post-punk textures while still packing serious punch.From there, Kevin takes control with a special Either/Or: Power Ballad Edition, throwing out a lineup of emotional heavyweights and forcing Craig to make the call — one matchup at a time until a final winner emerges.To close things out, the guys shift into a laid-back but thought-provoking discussion sparked by a recent hang at some Atlanta breweries:Are the ‘90s making a comeback?Why are some major artists from the past getting overlooked today?From hard rock to post-punk to power ballads and music culture — this episode covers a wide range of sounds and perspectives.📱 Subscribe and/or follow us on your favorite streaming platform 📩 Got a favorite 1983 album or a power ballad we should’ve included?
