November Noise: Too Mean To Die, Accept (2021)

“The undertaker is a busy man…..” They’ve been around since 1976 but their latest album, 2021’s Too Mean To Die, shows no signs of Accept becoming a middle-aged metal act about to call it a day. Outside of a few YouTube videos, this album is my introduction to the group and I’ve been listening toContinue reading “November Noise: Too Mean To Die, Accept (2021)”

Throwback Thursday: Wayne’s World (1992)

“Shuh?!?!? And monkeys might fly out of my butt!” In my teen years, few things made me laugh as hard as watching Mike Myers and Dana Carvey as Wayne Campbell and Garth Algar on their iconic Saturday Night Live sketch, Wayne’s World.

One of the bands that slipped into my listening queue was Vixen, one of the mostContinue reading “November Noise: Vixen (1988)”

November Noise: Too Fast For Love, Mötley Crüe, 1981

“Cuz I’m alive……” Mötley Crüe was the first “bad” band that I ever listened to as a kid. With their Satanic imagery, lyrics about rock staples such as sex, drugs, alcohol, and doing pretty much whatever you wanted to do as a youngster in the 1980’s, I was forbidden to listen to them. Because ofContinue reading “November Noise: Too Fast For Love, Mötley Crüe, 1981”

Who wants to rock? With Thirty-One Days O’Horror officially done for 2021, I’ve decided to dial things back a bit for the month of November. I’m going to have a few action figure reviews, film reviews, and other general genre related posts, but each Friday during November I’ll be highlighting one album from some ofContinue reading “November Noise”
