Every month CHR and Doug review six heavy metal albums. Each of them chooses a recent release, and then they talk about a small label/independent/unsigned band. Finally, in the Heavy Metal Valhalla segment, they feature a classic metal release every fan should have in his/her collection. As a second monthly episode, they review two random albums they happen to like. Their different ages, backgrounds, and tastes make for some interesting discussions on a wide variety of heavy music.

Episode #98: Stare Downward at the Rising Vermin

As the hosts practice social distancing, CHR opens the show with the densely-produced death metal of New Zealand's Ulcerate while Doug opts for some Michigan melodeath from The Black Dahlia Murder. In the indie segment, CHR ventures to Bangladesh to check out the debut from Nawabs of Destruction. In Heavy Metal Valhalla, Doug looks at one of the most popular industrial albums from the 1990s with Nine Inch Nails' sophomore release, to mixed results.
