The Dirt: A Motley Crue Retrospective - Episode 6: Motley Crue (1994) - Renegade Jukebox #42

June 13, 2024 by Michael Kaye in Music, Renegade Jukebox

In this episode, Mike and Nick enter what was at the time a brand new era for the band. Changing both their lineup and their sound, Motley Crue's self titled album is said to be one of the most notorious records in Heavy Metal history. But how does it hold up by today's standards? Tune in to find out!

What’s going on, everyone? This is your Captain speaking, alongside my co-host the Super Saiyan Death Metal God! We are excited to finally be out of the classic era of the band, and onto something different. Is that a good thing, or bad? I’m not gonna spoil that, you’ll need to tune into the podcast if you want to hear the full discussion!

Jukebox returns with the next episode in The Trivium Retrospective, Vengeance Falls.

Sit back, relax and get ready to Ooh ah ah ah as Trivium collaborate with David Draiman. (The results fair considerably better than Disturbed last two albums.)

New decade. New rules. New Trivium, figuratively and literally. In Waves is a huge turning point in the band's catalog, one the band insisted was a necessary step to them continuing. Is the album a shower or a grower? Or would we not see what they were going for on later albums? Listen and find out.

Uh oh, Nick & Mike are entering controversial territory on this Jukebox episode. This time on The Trivium Retrospective, we look at the first Trivium album worth defending. The Crusade is a widely debated album. Is it just copying Metallica or is there legitimate merit to these songs? Or is it just people making shit up to hate on a band that got popular off a landmark classic album? Listen and find out.
