Thank you for joining the Disciples of the Watch!

This episode we’ll discuss current events, what’s Nate been listening to, independent music from Dogmatic Absolution, we lay out our top 10 Anthrax songs along with our special guest and stuck in a car, stuck with a CD participant Matt Lawson!

—————————————————————————–

Top of the show topics:

*Whitesnake “The Purple Album”  (Stand out songs):

  • Burn
  • Sail Away
  • Mistreated
  • Holy Man (Vocals fall a little flat from the original which made it hard to get into at 1st)
  • Stormbringer (Same comment as above)

*Duff McKagan on Adam Carolla’s podcast
*Henry Rollin’s podcast is getting better. I’d recommend ‘Rollins band pts. 1 & 2’ as well as ‘Mr. Pepperman’ episodes.

*Branding Has Become TOO Important
