    S4-Ep 8: Cherry Bombz and Shooting Gallery - Going Out With A Bang!!

    This week in the Gutter, we’re chasing the beautiful wreckage left behind when one of rock ‘n’ roll’s most unpredictable gunslingers refused to call it a day. At the center of it all: Andy McCoy—songwriter, guitarist, and full-time agent of chaos—stepping out of Hanoi Rocks’ shadow and straight into two short-lived, hard-living projects that burned fast and flamed out.First up, we dive into The Cherry Bombz—a sleazy, swaggering supergroup that looked like a million bucks and behaved like they had nothing to lose. With members pulled from European Glam Punk royalty, The Cherry Bombz became an explosion of attitude, decadence, and pure rock ‘n’ roll instinct.Then we follow McCoy into Shooting Gallery, where the chaos turns even darker. Stripped down, and raw, this band traded Sunset Strip flash for something meaner. With a constant sense that everything could fall apart at any second, this was a band determined to self-destruct. Two bands and one brilliantly unstable creative force holding it all together—until he couldn’t.Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    S4-Ep7: SMACK - Walking On A Wire

    Long before Guns N' Roses took over the world, a gang out of Helsinki had already perfected the art of volume, chaos, and beautifully bad decisions. This week, we’re diving headfirst into the swagger and wreckage of Smack—the band that built a filthy little bridge between Finnish grit and L.A. glam.Smack became the ultimate musician’s band—worshipped by the future legends, ignored by the charts, and living just reckless enough to burn through every opportunity they touched.This is what happens when talent, timing, and trouble collide. Join us as we dig into a legacy that’s raw, ragged, and just a little bit tragic. Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    S4-Ep6: GYASI - Rock N' Roll Sword Fight

     This week in the Gutter, we dive headfirst into a technicolor blur of sequins, swagger, and electric riffs with modern Glam rocker Gyasi (Pronounced Jah-See). In this episode, we explore how the Nashville-based artist revives the theatrical spirit of Bowie and T. Rex while carving a sound and vision that’s entirely his own. He’s not living in their shadow. He’s kicking the door in, platform boots first, dragging Glam rock into the present with snarling guitars, twisted hooks, and a whole lot of attitude. Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    S4-Ep5: LOVE/HATE - Blackout In The Red Room

    This week in The Gutter, we get a little emotional over Love/Hate.While the Sunset Strip was choking on Aqua Net and major-label promises, Love/Hate came in wired, wild-eyed… and just a little weird. Fronted by the feral charisma of Jizzy Pearl, they had the hooks. They had the riffs. They had the attitude. What they didn’t have was timing.Their debut, Blackout in the Red Room, felt sharp, dangerous, and a little too real for a scene already collapsing under its own excess.And then there was the crucifixion stunt. Outrageous. Ridiculous. Maybe even a little desperate. But subtle? Never..Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    S4-Ep4: Diamond Dogs - Bound To Ravage

    This week in The Gutter, we crank up Sweden’s sleaziest soul survivors: Diamond Dogs. Born in the early ’90s with riffs in their teeth and a full-blown addiction to the ragged glory of the Stones and ’70s glam, these guys built it the hard way — sweat-soaked clubs, piano-pounding swagger, and sticky hooks. We dig into the glam-streaked roots, the bar-band hustle, and the unkillable groove that kept them strutting long after trends crashed and burned. Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    S4-Ep3: Company Of Wolves - Call Of The Wild

    This week in The Gutter, we’re dragging Company of Wolves back into the light — a New York band that had the songs, the swagger, the connections… and the worst timing imaginable. Right place. Right attitude. Wrong time.Company of Wolves fused East Coast grit with radio-ready hooks, big choruses, and killer riffs. Their 1990 self-titled album is slick enough for radio, rough enough for the streets — and somehow still got ignored.And then there’s Steve Conte — who didn’t disappear when Company of Wolves folded. He just kept working. Loud, quiet, behind the scenes, and everywhere else. From the New York Dolls in their second act to becoming Michael Monroe’s go-to songwriter, producer, and musical Swiss Army knife, Conte turned “cult-band survivor” into a long, legit career. Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    S4-Ep2: The Zeros - Less Than Zero

    This week in The Gutter, we take on The Zeros —  the glam-leaning power pop outsiders whose album 4, 3, 2, 1  deserved to be more than a cult-status footnote. Big choruses, neon hooks, and street-level swagger. And yeah — these are the same guys who wrote the long-running Howard Stern Show theme song… and still got ignored. We’re breaking down the records, the bad timing, the purple hair, and Sammy Serious’ obsession with signing about names.Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    S4-Ep1: Zodiac Mindwarp & The Love Reaction - Tattooed Beat Messiah

    This week in The Gutter, we dive into the chaotic mythology of Zodiac Mindwarp & The Love Reaction — one of the most unhinged, testosterone-fueled bands to ever crawl out of late-’80s Britain.Spawned by former music journalist turned rock ‘n’ roll menace Mark “Zodiac Mindwarp” Manning, this wasn’t just a band — it was a rotating cast of misfit heathens. Built on boogie riffs, cartoonish bravado, and a complete disregard for good taste, Zodiac Mindwarp hovered somewhere between parody and prophecy. Was it satire? Was it dumb as hell? Or was it rock excess in its most honest form?Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    S3-Ep12: Johnny Crash & Johnny Law - Johnny Come Lately

    This week in The Gutter, we’re doubling down with two bands who shared a name — Johnny Crash and Johnny Law.First up: Johnny Crash, straight outta late-’80s Los Angeles, where Sunset Strip dreams were colliding head-on with reality. Sleazy riffs, street-level swagger, and a band that looked like the next big thing right as the whole scene was about to implode.Then we head to Austin, Texas, where Johnny Law were tearing it up far from the hair-sprayed circus of Hollywood. Gritty and loud, Johnny Law mixed blues-soaked energy with hard rock muscle, building their reputation the old-fashioned way — sweat, volume, and pure determination.Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    S3-Ep 11: Stuttering John - Talks His Way Out Of It

    This week in The Gutter, we’re digging into one of the strangest footnotes in late-’80s/early-’90s hard rock history: Stuttering John’s band. Yeah, that Stuttering John — the wise-cracking, mic-swinging chaos magnet from The Howard Stern Show who somehow wound up fronting a legit rock outfit with real chops, real swagger, and two albums that deserved a hell of a lot more than punchlines. We’re tearing into the songs, the players, and how riding shotgun on the Stern circus maybe helped… but definitely hurtSend us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    S3-Ep10: The Throbs - The Language of Thieves and Bad Decisions

    This week in The Gutter, we’re digging into one of the sleaziest, most soulful cult bands to ever stagger out of the Lower East Side: The Throbs. These lipstick-smeared street poets were fusing a darker, grittier glam-sleaze sound full of dangerous bluesy swagger. We’ll dive into the making of their criminally overlooked debut, The Language of Thieves and Vagabonds, and the cast of characters—famous, infamous, and occasionally unhinged—that orbited their world. Expect sleaze.

    S3-Ep9: SLADE - Cum On Feel The Noize

     This week in The Gutter, it’s the Kings of Stomp and Glitter — Slade!! —These four hooligans from the English Midlands slapped on platform boots, mirror-ball hats, and built a sound that could level a pub. Before they were blaring out of every jukebox and football stadium in the U.K., these Black Country lads were just four scrappy kids hammering it out in sweaty pubs. We’ll trace their rise from Wolverhampton grit to chart-topping glory, how Noddy Holder’s howl and Dave Hill’s glitter-plated lunacy made them impossible to ignore, and why their raw, working-class swagger still packs a punch decades later. Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    S3-EP8: Cinderella: A Philly Fairytale

    From smoky East Coast clubs to MTV superstardom, Cinderella clawed their way up with busted knuckles, big hair, and a frontman who sang like his heart was on fire. We’ll dig into their rise from the Philly bar scene, the Bon Jovi connection that changed everything, and the blues-soaked albums that proved glam could have teeth. These guys weren’t sipping champagne on Sunset Boulevard — Tom Keifer and the boys were mixing nasty riffs with a soulful snarl and writing anthems about heartbreak, hard times, and the kind of grind that leaves dirt under your fingernails. Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    This week in The Gutter, we’re sliding face-first into the deep-fried, beer-soaked world of Nashville Pussy—the dirtiest rock ‘n’ roll band to ever crawl out of the South. This Georgia gang took AC/DC’s boogie, Motörhead’s bite, and a whole lotta whiskey-fueled sleaze, and turned it into one roaring middle finger to polite society.And stick around 'til the very end!

    S3-Ep 6: The Four Horsemen - Nobody Said It Was Easy

     This week in the Gutter we are getting down and dirty with the hard-rocking, LA-based powerhouse, The Four Horsemen. Signed by the legendary Rick Rubin, this band was the real deal. They were a raw, bluesy beast with the dirty swagger of AC/DC and the soulful stomp of Lynyrd Skynyrd. Their 1991 debut, Nobody Said It Was Easy, was an absolute monster that gave us anthems like "Rockin' Is Ma Business". But rock and roll has a price, and The Four Horsemen paid it in full. From the raw power of their live shows to the devastating bad luck that followed them like a shadow, their story is pure rock grit—loud, reckless, and unforgettable.Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    S3-Ep5: JETBOY - Feel the Shake

    This week in the Gutter, we’re diving into the glorious chaos of Jetboy—the San Francisco misfits who crashed the Sunset Strip with mohawks, leather, and a raw blend of punk sneer and sleaze-rock swagger. From Bay Area dive bars to major-label deals, from tragedy to…triumph?? Jetboy never fit the mold—and that’s exactly what made them dangerous. Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    S3-Ep4: Rhino Bucket - Ride the Rhino!!

    Forget your power ballads and pretty-boy primping—this week in the Gutter we’re throwing down with the loud, the dirty, the unstoppable Rhino Bucket. These guys didn’t need glitter, gimmicks, or Hollywood flash. They came armed with jackhammer riffs, four-on-the-floor grooves, and rock star swagger. We’ll dig into their albums, their endless road warrior grind, and how they managed to stay raw, sweaty, and gloriously unpolished in a scene choking on Aqua Net.Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    This week in the Gutter, we’re howlin’ at the moon with the criminally underrated Salty Dog. Forget the hairspray and the power ballads—Salty Dog was a different beast entirely. These sleaze-blues bastards rolled in with long hair, loud amps, and a debut album that hit like a bar fight. Join us as we uncover how a bunch of long-haired hellraisers with Zeppelin in their veins and Sunset Strip swagger landed a major label deal, dropped Every Dog Has Its Day, and then… well, kinda disappeared into the smoke.Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    S3-Ep2: BUCKCHERRY - Still Crazy, Bitch!!

    This week we crank up the chaos with the gloriously messy story of Buckcherry—the band that gave us strip-club anthems, tattoo-regret soundtracks, and enough sleaze to fill a Sunset Strip dumpster. This band of SoCal hellraisers went from Hollywood hopefuls to gold-record rebels, then crashed, burned, and rose again like a flaming middle finger! We’re talking Josh Todd’s caffeine-and-nicotine charisma, the revolving door of guitar slingers, and how the band managed to outlive most of their critics and their brain cells.Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

Andy and Gary break down the night in all its sleazy glory. Was it a beautiful mess of gutter rock greatness? Hell yeah!!

    S2-Ep12: Circus Of Power - Call Of The Wild

    Circus of Power was the personification of East Coast sleaze rock during the late 80s and early 90s, tearing up the Bowery with a brand of blues-infused, heavy-hitting rock that felt like a punch to the gut. This wasn't some polished, corporate rock outfit; this was the primal sound of a city's underbelly. If you crave your rock 'n' roll served with a side of street grime and a shot of pure, unadulterated swagger, you're in for a treat.Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    If you're tired of pretty boys and polished pop, and you crave the raw, visceral energy of bands like The Stooges and The Gun Club, then you're in the right place. The Hangmen delivered a potent cocktail of punk rock attitude, blues rock soul, and hard rock anthems that were raw, ragged, and real as Hell. This is the story of Bryan Small and his band of Rock n Roll lifers. They are the real deal, the antidote to the manufactured shine, and somehow survived every label disaster, lineup change, and hangover that 1980s Hollywood could throw at them.Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    This week we’re heading straight into the grimy gutters and neon nightlife of 1990s New York City to pay tribute to the criminally underrated glam-adjacent punk juggernaut: D Generation. Fronted by the ever-charismatic Jesse Malin, these downtown darlings brought sneer, swagger, and sharp songwriting to a scene that didn’t know what hit it. We’ll dive into their CBGB-bred origins, major label misadventures, and how they channeled the spirits of the Dolls, The Dead Boys, and Hanoi Rocks into a sound that was equal parts rebellion and heartbreak. They didn’t just play rock ’n’ roll—they made it feel dangerous again.Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

In this episode, we're diving headfirst into a glitter-soaked time capsule bursting with Aqua Net and spectacularly poor life choices, courtesy of... Pretty Boy Floyd. Yep, the Leather Boyz with Electric Toyz who made Poison look like undertakers.

    S2-Ep8: New York Dolls - Who Are The Mystery Girls??

    This week, we stumble into the trash-glam chaos of the legendary New York Dolls. They swaggered into the '70s like drag queens at a biker bar—loud, lewd, and full of attitude! We’re breaking down the gloriously sloppy legacy of these proto-punk pioneers. Before there was punk, there were the Dolls: sloppy, stylish, and too fabulous to ever be forgotten.Also a special segment dedicated to the late, great David Johansen—frontman, icon, lounge lizard. From his snarling days with the Dolls to his wild rebirth as Buster Poindexter, we celebrate his wild ride from the Bowery to the lounge act circuit, and everything in between.Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    S2-Ep7: Princess Pang & Betty Blowtorch - The Good, The Bad, and The Blowtorch!!

    In the first half of the episode, we explore the world of Princess Pang, the short-lived but unforgettable sleaze rock band that burned bright in the late '80s. With a globe-spanning lineup and a frontwoman who could out-scream, out-strut, and out-rock most of the boys in the biz, Princess Pang hit the scene in the late '80s like a hairspray-fueled tornado. Princess Pang brought a raw, infectious energy to the scene—just as the glam metal wave was beginning to crash. In the second half of the show, feel the pure DGAF chaos that was Betty Blowtorch—the all-girl band that made Mötley Crüe look like choir boys. We’re talking about the queens behind Are You Man Enough?, the album that that gifted the world with high-octane anthems like “Hell on Wheels,” “I Wanna Be Your Sucker,” and the eternal romantic ballad, “Shut Up and F***.” (If that title didn’t make your mom clutch her pearls, their live shows probably did.)From Bianca “Butthole” Halstead’s gritty bass lines to their legendary tour van misadventures, Betty Blowtorch didn’t just push boundaries—they set them on fire. We’ll dig into their rise from Butt Trumpet spinoff to full-blown rock cult legends,, their brief but blazing trail through the early 2000s scene, and the tragically short journey of their fearless frontwoman. Betty Blowtorch proved that rock wasn’t just a boys’ club—it was a demolition derby, and they were here to raise hell.Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    S2-Ep 6: The Hollywood Brats - From Almost-Famous to Absolutely Infamous

    Before punk had a mohawk and before glam got glossy, there were The Hollywood Brats—the band that should have been the UK’s answer to the New York Dolls but ended up as rock ‘n’ roll’s best-kept secret. In this episode, we dive into the sneering, swaggering, and spectacularly doomed career of the Brats, a group so ahead of their time they practically time-traveled into obscurity.From their reckless fashion choices to their run-ins with music industry apathy, we’ll unpack why their lone album (recorded in ’73, ignored until ’79) still sounds like a Molotov cocktail wrapped in leopard print. Were they glam? Proto-punk? Just really bad at networking? Tune in as we separate myth from mayhem and give The Hollywood Brats their belated street cred—though, let’s be real, they’d probably prefer a pint and a punch-up.Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

    S2-Ep5: Spread Eagle: Scratch Like A Cat

    In the late ‘80s, when rock ‘n’ roll was drowning in hairspray and excess, Spread Eagle crashed the party like a steel-toed boot to the face. These guys weren’t just another glam band—they were the leather-clad, gutter-born antidote to the genre’s pretty-boy polish. While glam bands were busy primping, these NYC bruisers were cranking out raw, razor-sharp street metal that sounded like it crawled out of a back alley with a switchblade and a bad attitude.In this episode, we dive into the band’s criminally underrated legacy. Were they too gritty for the glam crowd? Too sleazy for grunge? Or just the right band at the wrong time? Either way, Spread Eagle proved that sleaze metal wasn’t all lipstick and lace—it had teeth.Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

From high school besties to full-fledged rock stars, these four women took their love of The Ramones, KISS, and AC/DC and turned it into a career packed with blistering riffs, rebellious anthems, and the kind of songs that make you want to break curfew.We’ll cover their journey from high school garage band to MTV darlings, where they channeled their inner Ramones, out-party’d the pop-punk boys, and made sure everyone knew that girls could, in fact, shred just as hard—if not harder than the boys.Send us Fan MailShow Notes:Contact Us: [email protected] Us: https://rocknrollgutter.com/ |  Instagram | FacebookSubscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | https://pod.link/1763428225

After a mere 30-year hiatus (but who's counting?), Welsh rockers Sister Morphine finally unleashed their long-awaited debut album, Ghosts of Heartbreak City. Their blues-infused, hard-hitting riffs capture the essence of classic gutter rock with a fresh energy. But after three decades in the making... Was it worth the wait?Meanwhile, across the pond in the city that never sleeps (and neither do they), The Sweet Things are keeping rock & rolls heart beating with their signature blend of sleazy glam, punk attitude, and just the right touch of country twang.
