Episode Description from the Publisher

Jason Newsted is back on stage, but it isn’t the heavy metal comeback everyone wanted. His latest project with the Chop House Band has people scratching their heads and turning off the speakers. It turns out that trying to turn classic tracks into weird, non-metal acoustic interpretations while using death metal vocals doesn’t exactly work. On the flip side, Airbourne is dropping a new record that proves some bands still know exactly how to copy the AC/DC blueprint and turn the volume up to eleven. We break down the absolute trainwreck of one former rock icon and the massive stadium anthems of another.Watch commercial-free and without a publishing delay by becoming a CMS VIP at https://classicmetalshow.locals.com.All comments are merely the opinions of the people speaking them, are for comical performance, and are in no way stated as factual.
