How’s it going, fellow Renegades? It is I, THE DIRECTOR, back to bring you guy more of the Machine Head retrospective as they discuss the follow up to the first album, which is the titular “The More Things Change“ as they start to talk about the… well, the changes that come with the band’s progress in their success!
There’s a lot to get into, and our cohosts come at ya like a 10 ton hammer, son! What did they think of their sophomore album? Did it fall from the same issues as most people’s follow-ups and go into a slump? Is it a 5/5, or had it struck a nerve? Is Dave McClain a godsend or is he a bummer as the drummer? You’ll have to tune in and find out!
Well, that’ll do it for this episode! Special thanks to Jacob for editing this episode! Keep an eye on the stage, as an encore of a podcast may be comin’ your way very soon…
Nick and Mike are back with a new show for Renegade Jukebox, What Happened To This Band!? And with all of the current drama and past controversies?

Why We Love This Band returns, and who's on the docket this time? A band perfectly meant for this series, Lamb Of God. Arguably the most consistent catalog in heavy metal, Lamb Of God have been dropping classic albums for almost 3 decades now. So of course, Nick & Mike had to do an episode on them.

Another Why We Love This Band episode? You know Nick and Mike wouldn't put something like this together for no reason. No, today, July 8th is the 20th anniversary of Metallica's documentary Some Kind Of Monster.
