Ray and Steve kick off their new series, “The Headliners!” What’s that, you ask? It’s a new series where the guys focus on the album being toured by a headlining band on a tour that Queensryche opened for. The first episode features Iron Maiden’s 2000 “comeback” album, Brave New World. Halford and Queensryche supported Iron Maiden for a portion of this tour, making for an absolutely EPIC day of metal!!

For the album review, the guys welcome special guest co-host and one of the founding fathers of I Remember Now, Uncle Steve from the Uncle Steve’s MegaMaiden Zone Podcast! Steve, Steve, and Ray dissect the album track-by-track, rank the songs, and get off on a tangent or ten.

Ray and Steve are back with a brand-new episode! This time they’re stepping outside the traditional Queensrÿche catalog to dive headfirst into Todd La Torre’s bone-crushing 2021 solo debut LP, Rejoice in the Suffering. Packed with relentless riffs, blistering vocals, and zero compromises, this album shows a whole different side of Todd. With a major assist from lifelong friend Craig Blackwell, the big question is: Does it hit as hard as it promises?

The guys go track-by-track through Rejoice in the Suffering, ranking their favorite (and least favorite) songs and breaking down just how heavy things get. Along the way, they compare it to Todd’s work in Queensrÿche, the influences heard throughout, and explore where this album fits in the broader metal landscape. What follows is a high-energy, opinion-filled discussion with plenty of strong takes, maybe even a few disagreements, and a discussion of why Craig Blackwell is not a household name in the world of metal guitarists! They also spend time digging into listener feedback from recent episodes.

Ray and Steve are back with a brand-new episode that finds them venturing into uncharted territory…an episode of a Queensrÿche podcast that doesn’t focus on Queensrÿche!

This time, the guys pay tribute to German metal legends Accept. With Accept opening the recently completed Volume & Vengeance Tour alongside Queensrÿche, and with so many fascinating parallels between the two bands, the timing felt perfect to spotlight this iconic group.

Ray and Steve break down their Top 5 songs from both the Udo Dirkschneider era and the Mark Tornillo era, while sharing plenty of stories and personal memories about what Accept has meant to them over the years.

Plus, there’s a ton of listener feedback from the recent Tribe album review episode, featuring calls from many members of our ever-growing cast of audience characters.
