Look, it's really simple. The Rock N Roll Hall Of Fame hates and disrespects heavy metal. We don't. We believe that metal is one of the cornerstones in the history of rock n roll and we also need to point out the fact that it's one of the most globally-beloved genres of music. We think it's a crime that the bands highlighted in this week's playlist have been snubbed by the bluenoses and weenies that run the rock hall. Get them in! Listen to us state our cases for some obviously unjustly snubbed metal bands in Top Ten Rock N Roll Hall Of Fame Snubs: All Metal Edition Part 2, featuring our metal-loving pal Nick Baker.

A full-throated and totally sincere congratulations to the 2025 inductees into the Rock N Roll Hall Of Fame. Great job not being in the heavy metal genre! Let's face it, the rock hall hates metal, and always has. It took some serious teeth-pulling to even get a few metal bands in the hall, and even though heavy metal is truly a cornerstone in rock n roll history, the powers that be treat it like the black sheep of the family. Get it together, rock hall! Dr. Nick Baker returns for the 3rd volume in our totally justifiable recurring series Top Ten Rock N Roll Hall Of Fame Snubs, this time with a twist. We're calling out the hall for their lack of diversity, in particular their exclusion of heavy metal. Here in Top Ten Rock N Roll Hall Of Fame Snubs - All Metal Edition Part 1, we get into the top half of our list of truly deserving honorees.

The lying liars that tell lies for fun and profit are really puffed out and feeling good about their life choices in 2025. Hopefully their lies won't stop the pendulum from swinging back in their faces. Thanks to social media and the ever-expansive list of people willing to be lied to, liars are having such a moment that it got us thinking it was a good time to give them their own episode. The great Gabe Scalone is back for Top Ten Songs About Liars Part 2 where we guilelessly reveal picks 5-1. If you missed Part 1, you don't have to lie and say you didn't.

If there was any justice in the world it would be physically painful to lie. Lying lies and the lying liars that tell them are destroying our society in an accelerated fashion thanks to social media and an ever willing-to-be-lied-to populace. It's bad, people. We've got liars stuck in our craw over here at ATTT HQ and we figured since this is their moment, we should give the liars their due with episode dedicated directly to them. Top Ten Songs About Liars Part 1 starts us off on our journey through the bullshit, and thankfully we have our favorite bullshit detector and good friend Gabe Scalone on hand to help us out.

Is this an appropriate time to talk about censorship? How about freedom of speech? How about the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States Of America? We didn't plan it this way but history is rhyming in a big way right now, so we're actually glad to be taking a narrow-eyed look back at the past. 40 years ago this month Washington was abuzz with pending legislation to make laws determining some music obscene and ripe for censorship. Tipper Gore and her Parents Music Resource Center had the government all up in your business in 1985, and thankfully three REAL free speech warriors - Twisted Sister's Dee Snider, Frank Zappa and the unlikeliest of heroes, our man John Denver told Congress TO THEIR FACES to back off. Tipper's crusade against arbitrarily-deemed "filth" yielded ATTT a project. The so-called "Filthy Fifteen" is a list that's ripe for review, and the ATTT All-Stars are more than up for the task of ranking these songs using our patent-pending Worst To First format. Picks 7-1 are featured here in Part 2. If you missed Part 1 and the, uh, "worst" part of the list in picks 15-8, listen up here:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-686-tipper-gores-filthy-fifteen-worst-to-first/id573735994?i=1000726746433LIsten up and listen well to the official Tipper Gore's "Filthy Fifteen" Worst To First playlist, featuring all (available) songs heard in Parts 1 & 2:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3dcC3hNJMhA4U5DQheUPws?si=dcca6c2e382843bdIf you haven't watched them, do yourself a favor and check out Frank, Dee and John's testimony from 1985:Frank - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgAF8Vu8G0w&t=126sDee - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0Vyr1TylTEJohn - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MH0hYabzudkOur All-Stars are always up to stuff.

40 years ago this week our nation was under assault by forces of evil. These forces were conspiring to control artists and take away Americans' constitutionally-guaranteed rights to freedom of expression. In the halls of the United States Senate, three righteous warriors - Frank Zappa, Dee Snider and John Denver - stood up for artists and free speech by directly confronting the evil in power. The evil in power were the so-called "Washington Wives" - spouses to powerful Senators that were weighing a bipartisan violation of the first amendment to the constitution. The head of this clan otherwise known as the PMRC, or the Parents Music Resource Center, was the dreaded Tipper Gore. In the name of "protecting children" Tipper and her friends aimed for censorship. In the process, they gave us a weird but fascinating playlist they dubbed "The Filthy Fifteen" - fifteen songs they deemed to be obscene. This playlist is worth another look, and ATTT has decided to enlist our friends the ATTT All-Stars to give it our patented Worst To First treatment. Shannon Hurley, Gabe Scalone, Joe Lavelle, Matt Dinan and David Daskal were on hand to rank these songs and wax poetic about what a fucked up time the Reagan years were. Picks 15-8 are featured here in Part 1.If you haven't watched them, do yourself a favor and check out Frank, Dee and John's testimony from 1985:Frank - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgAF8Vu8G0w&t=126sDee - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0Vyr1TylTE John - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MH0hYabzudkOur All-Stars are always up to stuff.

It can be done! With the help of our good friends Chris Van Gompel, DJ Hostettler and Dixie Jacobs, we actually succeeded in "Separating The Art" from some of our favorite artists who for whatever reason are total jerks, creepers or worse, but we can still enjoy their music, if we work at it. Picks 5-1 are featured here, with some truly bad behavior being overcome by great art. If you missed all the tomfoolery we got up to in Part 1,, including picks 10-6, go back:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-684-top-ten-separate-the-art-artists-part-1-w/id573735994?i=1000724375462Please be enjoying the official Top Ten "Separate The Art" Artists playlist, featuring 15 out of the 17 songs heard in Parts 1 & 2:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6DFMZPwUP36SAtNPQr7nog?si=8a13fc2d89764cf3These guys are always busy with the rocking out and such.

Can we actually separate the art from the artist? Well, if you're willing to contort yourself around some pretty terrible behavior, the art you are separating from the artists involved better be worth it. Only the best of the best can get away with being the worst of the worst and have us still wanting to enjoy their art. From bleak to dark, this list and the stories involved might make the squeamish squeam - fair warning! Who else to help us navigate these treacherous waters than our old dear friends from Milwaukee, Chris Van Gompel, DJ Hostettler and Dixie Jacobs. Here in Top Ten "Separate The Art" Artists Part 1, we discuss Picks 10-6 of this problematic cast of characters, but we also get to rock out with some of their amazing creations.These guys are always busy with the rocking out and such.

"Now more than ever." We say it so often the true meaning of it is in danger of getting lost.
