🎸 **EPISODE 209 IS HERE!** 🎸

We’re finishing up **White Tiger’s debut album**, featuring the late, great **Mark St. John**! 🐯🤘

After his short-lived stint in KISS, Mark was ready to sharpen those claws with White Tiger.

🔥 We’re wrapping up White Tiger and taking one last trip into the world of Mark St. John, questionable ’80s fashion, and riffs louder than Gene Simmons’ ego.

Zen Arcade

#huskerdu #zenarcade #80srock #bobmould #hardcorepunk #indierock #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky #altrock #alternativerock Husker Du's take on "the grass isn't always greener" via their 2nd album released July 1, 1984. It's a conceptual rock opera -- following the young teen who runs away from an abusive home only to find it's really hard out there -- drugs, goofy relationships, religion -- only we find out it's all a damn nightmare.

🇩🇰 Disneyland After Dark "Standin' on the Never Never" – 1985

The raw debut EP from the Danish rock outfit that would soon be known simply as D-A-D. Blending cowpunk energy with hard-edged rock and a touch of wild-west twang, this record captures the rebellious spirit of mid-80s Copenhagen. Unpolished, playful, and full of promise...

The Classic 1988 Metal Album That Broke The Rules And Should've Been a Failure
