About this listen

“You can’t be funny if you’re happy all the time…” 1996 marked the time that The Super Bowl went Triple X, when Atlanta hosted the Summer Olympics, the United States national debt was a measly $5 Trillion, and the world of heavy metal continued its march forward, trudging past the brief grunge fad into darker, sludgier, and heavier waters. “Is this KISS?” The thrash period of the early 90’s had already faded away as the grunge period came and went, and the overall vibe of metal was shifting to something even angrier and darker, with a veritable orgy of new metal subgenres popping up and coming online faster than OnlyFans accounts during the lockdowns of 2020, back when we were all just trying to “flatten the herd”. “Now it’s just me and Wristina…she’s been by my side forever…she knows all the moves…” Discover why having a “fistful of Jergens” is essential and why shampoo bottles should really come with a warning label. Get your holiday prime rib dinner properly roasted, get your state of consciousness properly toasted, and JOIN US as we look forward to 2026, a mere 30 years since THE YEAR IN METAL – 1996.
