About this listen

If your Thursday was missing glam, grit, and at least one Slipknot track to scare your neighbors, you've found it. Today's Rock King Radio Show was 2 hours of unapologetic noise therapy — from Mötley's Too Young to Fall in Love to Mastodon's eight-minute prog flex on Stairway to Heaven.

Somewhere between Rock of Ages and Duality, we crammed in Prince just to keep the glam crowd confused, then immediately punched them in the ears with AC/DC and Metallica. Because balance.

Today's chaos included:

  • Too Young to Fall in Love – Mötley Crüe

  • Just Like Paradise – David Lee Roth

  • Rock of Ages – Def Leppard

  • Kiss Me Deadly – Lita Ford

  • Sweet Child O' Mine – Guns N' Roses

  • Youth Gone Wild – Skid Row

  • Duality – Slipknot

  • For Whom the Bell Tolls – Metallica

  • Stairway to Heaven – Mastodon

  • Jump – Van Halen

  • Forever Young – Tyketto

  • Rock the Night – Europe

Plus: Poison twice (because you can never overdo eyeliner), two Whitesnake takes (original and 2018 remaster, because why not), a dose of Quiet Riot, and just enough Tesla and Krokus to make your uncle yell, “Now this is music.”

Listen now — it's hair spray, heavy riffs, and HOA hate mail, in that order.
