Thanks in small part to the band Spinal Tap, November 11 (11/11, get it?), has been decreed National Metal Day. To honor this majestic day we present to you, Nöthin' But A Good Time: The Uncensored History of the '80s Hard Rock Explosion. Authors Tom Beaujour and Richard Bienstock did an intensive dig into the musicians and insiders involved in the scene that launched the careers of Mötley Crüe and Poison on the west coast and Twisted Sister and Quiet Riot on the east.

Eric Vetro trains the biggest Hollywood stars like Ariana Grande (Wicked), Timotheé Chalamet (A Complete Unknown) and Austin Butler (Elvis) to transform their singing voices. His latest undertaking is to teach Jeremy Allen White to sing like Bruce Springsteen for the film, Deliver Me From Nowhere. Eric lends his voice to our podcast to tell us his own very unique story.

Matt Piucci and Steven Roback from Rain Parade join the podcast to celebrate the reissue of their second album, Crashing Dream, which is loaded with extras and live tracks. We chat with Matt and Steven about the origins of the band, the 80s Paisley Underground scene, and how they created that crazy pool picture for their album cover.
