  Ep. 351: Grave Mistake: SLOAN Shoulda Been Huge!!! pt.2 11.09.2026 1Std. 37Min.

  This week, we are back with part 2 of a “…Shoulda Been Huge!!!” episode for Halifax, NS, Canada’s very own: SLOAN! We covered 1992-2001 in Ep. 348; this time, we bring you up to date with releases from 2003 to 2025. Sloan is the quintessential Canadian power-pop act—blending '70s hard rock riffs, Beatles-esque vocal harmonies, and indie rock grit—and they’ve earned gold albums and a Juno in their home country. We think it is a grave mistake that they are not as revered everywhere in the world!

Come on the journey with us as we explore record shops and the dusty old crates in the back of the store. How do these gems find their way to the show? Is it fate? Is it chance? We are going to share the process with you here. Enter our 5th dimension if you dare…

  This week we make hard choices: Aquanet or White Rain? That’s right, we are once again diving hair-first into the world of obscure glam metal. We are focusing on the bands that arrived on the scene just a hair too late: the years 1991-1993. They wanted to party like it was 1989, but a grungy storm from the Pacific Northwest was coming to crush their party vibes. If you like it glammy, sleazy, and trashy, this is your show!

The quintessential Canadian power-pop act—that blends '70s hard rock riffs, Beatles-esque vocal harmonies, and indie rock grit that has won them gold albums and a Juno in their home country. We think it is a grave mistake that they are not as revered everywhere in the world!

  Ep. 345: In The Shadow Of... METALLICA! 31.07.2026 1Std. 57Min.

  This week, a continuation of our series called “In The Shadow Of…”, where we compare bands to a well-established mainstream act. This is not about copycats, but about artists that have similar vibes, share a sonic soundscape, or whose songwriting and playing styles are sympatico. This is another band near and dear to both of you humble hosts. A band that sits atop the pedestal of all things “heavy”. A band that defined metal in the 80s and 90s while becoming somewhat polarizing in more recent years; the iconic METALLICA! Join us as we discover other bands who were influenced and inspired by this hella great band.

  Ep. 344: Degrees Of Separation... TODD KERNS 24.07.2026 1Std. 37Min.

  This week brings another installment of “Degrees Of Separation…,” where we dig into the side projects, supergroups, and solo releases connected to a particular artist. This time, we pay tribute to a rock n’ roll workhorse and journeyman from the Great White North: a jack-of-all-trades musician who seems to be single-handedly keeping many of the legacy artists we love in fighting shape. He’s not only a multi-instrumentalist and consummate rock star, but he also has some of the best pipes in the business. Of course, we’re talking about TODD “DAMMIT” KERNS!!!

Therefore, it’s time once again for some swampy, creepy, backwater blues and southern gothic goodness that runs the gamut of rock n’ punk n’ metal! Go sit out on your front porch, grab your Sunday paper for fanning yourself, swat at those giant mosquitoes, and turn this episode up to 11. Get your swamp on!

  This week InObscuria exhumes those unmarked graves of unsigned artists! These bands may not have been signed to a major or gained internationally distributed success, but they were all rock stars to those lucky enough to hear and see them! Anyone who’s ever been in a band and played local/regional shows knows that some of the best live acts and musicians (and friends) are met through sharing bills with other acts. We hope we turn you on to some great music that you may have otherwise never had a chance to hear!

  Ep. 338: Pulling The Plug... Acoustic Rock n’ Punk n’ Metal 5 12.06.2026 1Std. 43Min.

  This week, half of us are at the beach enjoying some r n’ r, so we thought we’d listen to some r n’ r with a beachy vibe. We are pulling the plug… and gasping for air… guitars! Rock artists have been playing acoustic since the very beginning. In fact, most songwriters start the process with an acoustic instrument. There’s something about capturing the sound of a song on just wire and wood that has a vulnerable, human feel to it. Dig your toes into the sand, breathe in the salt air, and enjoy these tunes with a frosty beverage.

  Ep. 337: Shredding The Tomb - 70's Guitar Gods 05.06.2026 2Std. 12Min.

  This week, we bow down and raise up the almighty guitar heroes! The foundation of Rock n’ Punk n’ Metal is the guitar and the amazing sounds that those who wield them can make. How do they make such wonderful noise with metal wires on a piece of wood? There’s some kinda voodoo in their hands, and we set off on a journey to raise some of the 70s shredders that you may have forgotten!

  Ep. 336: Metal Thrashing Mad IV - Crossover Thrash 29.05.2026 1Std. 48Min.

  Meet Captain Content & Kevin in the pit again this week for a hella good time! We’re getting our aggressions out by revisiting the starting point of it all for Kevin. The thrash, crossover, speed metal movement of the 80s spawned his love of all things rock n’ punk n’ metal. This time around the circle pit, we are focusing on Crossover Thrash. A sub-genre defined as short bursts of hardcore punk with metal guitar riffing. This was perfect skateboarding music, which intertwined with the Sk8 subculture in the 80s and 90s. Hope ya have a slammin’ good time with this one!
