Today, it’s…SLAYERRRRRRRRRRR!!! The kings of thrash metal get the royal treatment, we pay our respects to MCA, wonder why Glenn Danzig is such an asshole, deliver some GWAR news, and talk about Metallica’s new book. In addition, Craig talks about some recent releases, gives you a new scenario for What Would Lemmy Do?, and almost loses Metal or Not.
This week’s last song is The Strongest Dead Man Alive by The Kickass. You can find it here.

It’s a pretty short show this week as we had to squeeze one in our busy schedules. But this week, we talk about the real King of Darkness: King Diamond! While it’s true that we’re not experts on the man and his music, we felt he needed to be included in our Metal 101 segment. GRANDMAAAA!
Beyond that, there are some quick news bits, we talk briefly about some new hair metal bands, and end with a tune from the forthcoming Shadowsfall album, which you can find here.

This week, we take the piss with Pantera, try to figure out what type of metalheads we are, and lament the fact that we never knocked up a blue-haired chick in a men’s room stall. Throw in a reveal that one of the hosts wants to fuck Johnny Depp, and you’ve got one hell of an show.
Bands discussed in this episode are Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Pantera, Dragon Force, Marilyn Manson, and Dio. The last song is “Red Tide Rising” by Orange Goblin, which you can listen to right here

In the ever shifting sands of Robot Panic podcasting, we present you with an After Hours this week.
Recorded a few weeks ago, John and Moe have a deep and profound discussion about…something. I’m not really sure what exactly this discussion is about but I can only assume it is deeply insulting and offensive to many.
After a brief vacation, we’re back with more metal. In this episode, we discuss whether or not Dave Mustaine is really a prolapsed rectum, why we don’t want to know where King Diamond lives, why red wine is more metal than white wine, and argue over Kill ‘em All vs. Killing is My Business.
Bands discussed this episode: Deicide, Slayer, Guns n’ Roses, Overkill, Iron Maiden, Accept, and more.
Our featured song this week is “Wrong Answer” by Municipal Waste. Thanks to Rusty for the suggestions. To check out the awesomely low-budget video, click here.

It’s only been a few days, but we’re back with another episode of Metal Up Your Ass! Craig’s out on vacation next week, so the idea was to get this one recorded and put it up while he was gone. However, I’m so happy with how this one turned out that I couldn’t wait to put it up. I hope you’ll agree that it’s a marked improvement over the first one.
On this episode, we discuss Accept, Tool, Lars Ulrich, Black Sabbath, Ronnie James Dio, Ozzy, and Lazarus AD.
Thanks for the emails, tweets, and comments we’ve received. Not having a feed or being on iTunes, it’s nice to know that at least a handful of metal heads are listening. There’ll be a bit of a gap until Craig gets back for Episode 3, but we’ve got some fun stuff planned for that one. In the meantime, please continue to pass on suggestions and comments. We appreciate it.
