  • This week we’re discussing every album by King Crimson from 1969 to 1974. Led by the legendary (and partially insane) Robert Fripp, King Crimson is one of the pioneers of prog rock, as well as one of the wildest and most influential bands of all time. This era of the band chronicles some of the most memorable albums in all of prog rock. But be warned, this is not a band that welcomes everyone. The insanity is real.

    Closing track” One More Red Nightmare” from Red (1974)

  • This week we’re discussing Waiting Room, the latest album by Kathryn Mohr. Put out on The Flenser (one of our favorite labels), Waiting Room is lonely, bleak, and terribly atmospheric. Written and recorded by Mohr by herself, the minimalism is the album’s most notable asset. But while it is unsettling and executed well, it might not be for everyone.

  • This week we're discussing every album by Hum. While they can technically be considered a one-hit-wonder with their song "Stars" from 1995's You'd Prefer an Astronaut, Hum did way more and influenced so many more than they get credit for. Equal parts grunge, indie, and chunky post-hardcore--Hum has a style and personality so distinct, you can hear how much they influenced bands like Deftones today.

  • This week we’re discussing the latest album by Venamoris entitled To Cross or To Burn. Venamoris is the side project of Dave Lombardo (Slayer, Mr. Bungle, Fantomas, Dead Cross) and his wife Paula, and boy did it catch us off guard. No way were we expecting one of the most prolific and respected metal drummers to put out a genuinely good goth record. An unexpected delight that you should all check out.

  • This week we're tying up some loose ends by discussing Bird Machine, the presumed final album by Sparklehorse. Shortly before his death in 2010, Mark Linkous recorded the foundation for these tracks with Steve Albini. Since then, Matt and Melissa Linkous took the tracks and completed them, giving them a proper release. While Mike and Alex generally weren't huge fans of Sparklehorse's records, no one can deny how moving this album is. Be sure to check out our thoughts on the full discography from episode 122.

  • This week we’re discussing every album (and EP) by My Bloody Valentine. MBV is one of the most influential rock bands of all-time and helped pioneer shoegaze, with singer/guitarist Kevin Shields’s surreal and unreasonably noisy guitar tone. This band is for anyone who wants the prettiest music ever to also make their ears bleed.

  • This week we’re discussing the one and only album by Thorr’s Hammer. While they only have one album, it has since become the stuff of legend due to being formed by sludge/doom pioneers Greg Anderson and Stephen O’Malley. However, the mind blowing vocals by a then 17-year-old Runhild Gammelsæter were the final necessary ingredient. Following Runhild’s return to Norway, the band reformed as Burning Witch (whom we covered on episode 167).

  • This week we’re discussing every album by both The Faith and Void. These two legendary hardcore punk bands will be forever linked because of their split LP from 1982. However, both bands couldn’t be more different in their approach to punk. The Faith (whom Ian MacKaye’s younger brother Alec fronted) was a prime example of quality songwriting and musicianship. Void, on the other hand, was pure ravenous chaos and inadvertent originators of extreme metal. Two of the best to ever do it.

    Closing tracks: “Slowdown” by The Faith from Subject to Change (1983); “Red Death” by Void from Potion For Bad Dreams (1983)

  • This week we’re discussing the remaining albums by Metallica from 2003-2023. This is the episode you’ve all been waiting for. Not only do we do a deep dive on all their albums from this era, but we pay special attention to St. Anger, as well as their infamous collaboration with Lou Reed, Lulu. This is a fun one, prepare yourselves.

  • This week we’re discussing Born Horses, the latest album by psychedelic alt rock band Mercury Rev. We covered Mercury Rev’s entire discography on episode 138, so we weren’t sure what to expect from this album. What we definitely weren’t expecting was for Mike and Alex to be completely split on it. This is a fun one, folks, enjoy.

  • This week we’re discussing everything by Operation Ivy. For those who don’t know, Op Ivy were one of the pioneers of ska punk in the late 80s, two of whose members went on to form Rancid (Tim Armstrong and Matt Freeman). While technically they have one album and one EP, everything is neatly compiled onto a self-titled compilation from 2007. This is not an episode for die hard fans of the band. Ska has never been our thing at EAE, so enter at your own risk.

  • This week we’re discussing every album by King Krule, the stage name and project of London’s Archy Ivan Marshall. King Krule is what you get when you blend jazz, indie, psychedelic, and trip hop, all while coating it in the dreamiest production you can imagine. Maybe his style isn’t for everyone, but his production prowess alone is worthy of deep analysis. Mike and Alex disagree big time on King Krule, so pick your side and watch us fight.

  • This week we’re discussing Wild God, the latest album by Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds. The first official Bad Seeds album since 2019’s Ghosteen, Wild God shows the band with more energy than they’ve had in years. Ethereal, gospel inspired, and jam-packed with lovely passages and melodies. Cave fans should not miss this one.

  • This week we’re discussing every album by D’Angelo. Don’t let his over the top sensual music video for “Untitled (How Does It Feel)” turn you off (or on), D’Angelo is the R&B artist to convert any skeptics. Jazz, hip hop, soul, funk, and brilliant collabs with Questlove and J Dilla. A truly fantastic songwriter and performer. I hope you all have spare underwear ready.

  • This week we’re discussing “NO TITLE AS OF 13 FEBRUARY 2024 28,340 DEAD,” the latest album by Godspeed You! Black Emperor. For those familiar with the band, this album (and its lengthy and political title) will not surprise you. However, that is far from a bad thing. “NO TITLE…” shows the band as heartbreaking, beautiful, and dynamic as ever. Godspeed rarely disappoints, and this album is no different.

  • This week we’re discussing every album by alternative rock band Soul Asylum. Most people know them because of the Grammy-winning “Runaway Train.” But they actually started out as a wild Minneapolis punk band alongside The Replacements and Hüsker Dü. However, they quickly became a very straightforward rock band. Fans of the band beware, this is a brutal episode.

After winning a Grammy for 2020’s Carnivore, Merciless shows the band as heavy and charming as ever.

  • This week we’re discussing every album by Metallica from 1991-1998. This is such a strange era for the band. They dominated the world of rock music with 1991’s The Black Album, then returned 5 years later with short hair, eyeliner, and southern hard rock songs. Most people dismiss these mid-90s albums, but how do they really hold up all these years later?

  • This week we’re discussing Mansuetude, the latest album by genre-hopping noise rock maniacs Buñuel. Vocalist Eugene S. Robinson is most known from the now defunct Oxbow, whose recent breakup devastated us. But Mansuetude is an entirely different, but no less amazing trip into chaos. Eugene, Xabier, and Franz from the band also blessed us with an interview, which you can find starting at 43:46.
