We admit it, we’re old. But with age comes experience. We’ve witnessed firsthand the majority of the techno marvels we take for granted today. One of our faves was the rise of the home video phenomenon. It was a fun and exciting era. We had the ability to see our favourite flicks at home. As well, it had its effects on Metaldom. This week we go over some of the…

Whoo-Hoo!! It’s time for our annual Rammy Awards! Kind of our take on the Grammys Awards (R.A.M…Gammy…Rammy. We’re so clever). Basically, we give our picks of the past year in the categories that mean the most to Metalheads. Fave Band, Album, Song, Live Show a.o. As well, we make our inductions into The Radioactive Metal Hall Of Fame for Band, Album and what we cal the Myth And Legend. Give…

New Year’s Eve was pretty low key around the RAM offices. We had a night of PJs and popcorn. So we decided this year we would save the partying for you the listeners. We ditched our usual segments and broke out the Lemmys. As we “tipped the elbow”, we discussed a variety of topics. Those included our new “Frankenstein” bass, our Christmas hauls, “The Iron Claw” flick, 80s soundtracks, and…

As of this episode, the year is starting to wind down. But before you start rockin’ in the New Year, now is a good time to discuss some of the events that made 2023 the year that was. Without stepping on the Rammy Award’s steel toed boots, we figured we’d share the awesome albums that provided our personal soundtracks. We also pay tribute to some of our fallen comrades. We…

The Messes Des Morts in Montreal is a Black Metal festival going on for a dozen years now. The attraction to the fest is the organizers ability to attract artists from across the pond that rarely makes appearances on North American stages. We had planned to be there for this year’s instalment. Unfortunately, life had different plans. Fortunately, our good friend and co host of our sister podcast “Wrestling Night…

This past weekend was what’s suppose to be the final on stage hurrah for the legendary KISS. The outfit has gone full circle from the New York club scene some 50 years ago to Madison Square f’n Garden. This historical moment was available to fans worldwide on Pay-Per-View. Sorta. Our service for the big event was both dodgy (Thx Barney) and non existent. So this week we compare debacles. We…

We cannot stress how important the “WKRP In Cincinnati” (78-82) sitcom has had on this radio show. No “Dr” Johnny Fever = No Radioactive Metal. So this being the Thanksgiving season, we take inspiration from the (in)famous “Turkey Drop” episode. We thought “What If…” (Thx Marvel) the characters of WKRP were Metalheads? What would their fave artists be? Some may seem obvious. But others required our Metal logo thinking baseball…

Metal and Punk bands are no strangers to the whole acronym for their name thing. Instead of spelling out their multi word monicker, it’s just easier to focus on the first letters. The ones that immediately come to mind are D.R.I. and C.O.C. But what about obscure names like J.F.A. and E-X-E? So we figured we’d put our own Aaron to the test. Just for shites’ and giggles. In our…

Legendary rockers WASP are always a great time. Either on the live front or their immense discography. Case in point – we had a fantastic time merely talking about their wicked cover of The Who’s “The Real Me”. So we figured we’d crank up the volume and dedicate an entire discussion segments to Blackie And The Boys. We share our fave songs, albums, live experiences and how we first discovered…

Cover songs can be rather divisive amongst Metal fans. Some see it as a loving tribute. Others see it as a complete waste of time and effort. Around the RAM offices, we love a good cover song. Particularly a blast from the past being paid homage being paid by a current hotshot. But which is preferred? The original…or the cover. So we figured we’d go over our own laundry list…

While we’re not ready to give up the Halloween ghost just yet, we understand that the show must go on. Record Store Day: Black Friday is just around the corner. And RSD is always a huge deal around here. So if one is good than two must be better. So once again we go over the the RSD list of releases at www.recordstoreday.com and make our choices that we want…
