Special Episode: The Terror Tapes by Gama Bomb

Didn't Go Platinum revisits a terrific thrash album while exploring the origins of the podcast itself! Regular host Tim Bolitho-Jones is joined by Philly Byrne and Joe McGuigan of Gama Bomb to discuss the making of 2013's The Terror Tapes. This was the band's fourth full-length album and first for AFM, and it tends to get overshadowed by their previous ones, but it's a banger. It's a delightful thrash metal journey into a world of violent movies, anti-fascism, and the joy of shouting 'balls' in a gang. It also served as the inspiration for Didn't Go Platinum itself. Tim got the idea for the show while writing this retrospective for Distorted Sound magazine, and the podcast wouldn't exist without it. Join us for a deep dive into an overlooked gem, before the sticky buns get possessed and run off.
