This may or may not be the last episode... but for the foreseeable future... yeah it's the last episode. Until we decide to do another one of course. We had hoped to make it to 100 episodes. so what better topic to power through this one with than "Top 100 Songs For Not Making It To 100 episodes"? We even made an effort to not get long winded on all our picks so you'll be amazed at how quickly and efficiently...2015-08-241h 41MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 90 - Does Anyone Listen Anymore sPeakThere was shows.

Because topical.2015-05-261h 11MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 89 - Proud To Be A Merkin sPeakJust in time for Easter! This topic shouldn't come to a surprise to any of the listeners. We all attend a reenactment of "The Passion" each year, right? That's a goddamn given. But now you can show up in style - both physically and musically! By the way we're copyrighting "Easter grass merkin" so... sorry you missed out on the millions that will certainly bring in for us. We also chatted about the amazingness of the Colorado Springs local metal scene over the last two weeks. If you missed those shows... for shame! And we wrapped up with "The Way...2015-03-311h 04MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 88 - Things That Were Relevant Two Weeks Ago sPeakIf you've listened to MetalsPeak before, WOW you must have been really bored. But srsly if you've listened before you know how we like to stay current and topical with our...topics... So yeah it should be no surprise that we decided to do Top 5 songs for being a hummingbird rising weasel in a diaper on the way to buy a white and gold dress that everyone says is blue and black. Plus we talked about the recent shows with Suicide Silence, Within The Ruins, Fit For An Autopsy, and Crown Magnetar at The Black Sheep, and Fallujah, Lorna Shore...2015-03-161h 00MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 87 - Its Not Me Its You sPeakWe're back after a long break and firing on all cylinders! All 3 of them! Plus we welcome back Alloy Matt as we have a melancholic discussion about awkward "break-ups" we've had with bands. You know - those songs you heard for the first time and thought, "Wow, I used to love this band... what the hell happened?!?!?!?" - check out Matt's list on You Tube here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWEuwyUWHhUWcoE7RPpJVGFEA6KGGgMS4. We also got some thoughts from Jared on the recent tour packages of Periphery, Nothing More, Wovenwar, and Thank You Scientist tour, as well as...2015-02-041h 58MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 86 - Flahflulala sPeakWhat a year! We do our best to whittle down the year's releases to the top 10; probably not the most popular results but you know what? Fuck it! This is 'Merica and these is ours lists! Sidetracking this time includes the truly amazing editing that is "This Is My Product" and the good times of "Cumming or Drumming. We also check out "Lacerated, Strangled, Impaled" and "War Against All Living" by Tacit Fury2014-12-082h 26MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 85 - Clean Me sPeakYay pumpkins! The pumpkin episode to end all pumpkin... everything. Fall time is everyone's favorite and what better way to usher in the great camel toe season than with a soundtrack for having pumpkin spice latte enema after bathing in melted pumpkin spice M and Ms and douching with pumpkin spice body lotion. Standard off topic tangents this time around include a development in Jared's 5. Was a shocker to be sure. By the way, we nailed the perfect female ghostbuster lineup: Kristin Wiig as Venkman, Melissa McCarthy as Ray, Geena Davis as Egon, Aisha Tyler as Winston. We also heard...2014-10-191h 35MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 84 - Spudd Dwyer sPeakI think we MetalsPeak'd preddy gud. Ya know we gave it a hunert-ten percen' And we also did top 5 songs for a Mexican potato gun standoff. Jared may be starting a trend in his show prep methodology... Potential payoff is huge. Also, Happy Birthday, Cody! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ And we checked out "Rat Shit" by Iron Reagan and “Nattens Barn” by Myrkur2014-09-1448 minMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 83 - Dude Hammer sPeakWe're back with another totally absurd, yet kind of relevant topic! Top 5 song titles that could double as something you would buy in the housewares section of Bed Bath and Beyond. Apparently it's up for debate if the whole entire Bed Bath and Beyond store is housewares - but we operate under the premise that the more words in the topic, the better. This was inspired by the http://ikeaordeath.com/ quiz - which Jared took live during the show. Is anyone surprised he scored 20 out of 20, he's truly true kvlt. We're so proud. We also heard about the weirdest...2014-08-241h 00MetalsPeak - InterviewsMetalsPeak - InterviewsMetalsPeak Interviews - Goatwhore 2<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/MetalsPeakInterviews/~4/c5sbsBD6c70" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>2014-08-0600 minMetalsPeak - InterviewsMetalsPeak - InterviewsMetalsPeak Interviews - Within The Ruins 2<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/MetalsPeakInterviews/~4/qYu8hi3oUao" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>2014-08-0500 minMetalsPeak - InterviewsMetalsPeak - InterviewsMetalsPeak Interviews - Fallujah 2<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/MetalsPeakInterviews/~4/Hzx69KOHdvg" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>2014-08-0400 minMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 82 - SlaughtersPeak IIIThis year Summer Slaughter was a return to form, and while the turnout may not have been as big, the enjoyment factor was through the roof. We say keep that ball rolling! In fact, because we're so generous, for the third year in a row we are offering up a primo lineup for the Summer Slaughter tour. We did talk in detail about this year's tour. It was exceptionally face-melting with Boreworm, Fallujah, Within The Ruins, Decrepit Birth, Origin, The Faceless, Goatwhore, Thy Art Is Murder, Dying Fetus, and Morbid Angel. HO. LEE. SHIT. Also, Daigle worked an equally exceptionally...2014-08-031h 28MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 81 - Why Didn’t We Do This Sooner sPeakYeah what the hell!??! Kinda surprised how this didn't come up until now... Too busy with less important, more disgusting topics I guess... Anyway, not that there is anything wrong with the Breaking Bad intro - it's pretty much perfect, in fact - but any excuse to spend more time with the mind-blowing series is always worth it! So if the theme song was going to be replaced - here's 15 songs that would do the job just fine. If you're playing the MetalsPeak home game, here's the clip you can mute and watch along with as we go through our...2014-07-2137 minMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 80 - Wet Balogna sPeakShame on us. But no stone unturned, I guess? Nothing ventured, nothing gained? No. Definitely no. There is no justification for this. We blame Cards Against Humanity. Top 5 songs for the primal... yuck... ball-slapping sex your... eeeyuucgh... parents are having... right now. Never. Again. At least not until the topic about speed bagging your grandma's beef curtains. Wish we could say we had some sweet tunes to play to counteract the awful topic, but nope! Although Daigle did come correct on his plan to sign along to Anaal Nathrakh's "Tod Huetet Uebel" - he shared highlights. It was awesome.2014-07-0755 minMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 79 - Doing Our Part sPeakYay for public service! OK sure, this might not be the first thing on your list when you want to help your fellow (wo)man, but when you get to it, you'll thank us - like you always do - for providing the perfect songs to accompany your good deed. The good deed of giving free pelvic exams to the homeless at a bus stop! We also heard from Jared and Leggz on the recent Meshuggah/Between The Buried And Me show, as well as the Wretched/Havoc/Hostile Encounter/Pain Machine show. And we checked out "Procession" and "The...2014-06-1852 minMetalsPeak - InterviewsMetalsPeak - InterviewsMetalsPeak Interviews - Wretched<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/MetalsPeakInterviews/~4/exZYWuLfSHo" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>2014-06-1100 minMetalsPeak - InterviewsMetalsPeak - InterviewsMetalsPeak Interviews - Aborted 2<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/MetalsPeakInterviews/~4/FdYaPJF_mNk" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>2014-06-0900 minMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 78 - Steamer sPeakOne of the absolute most terrifying scenes in Jurrasic Park has to be when the T-Rex snatches the lawyer up from the porcelain throne. How horrible would that be? You're sitting there all peaceful-like in the fortress of solitude and then BLAM! T-Rex decides he needs a snack. Yeah that would suck, but at least now you have the perfect soundtrack for it. You're welcome. We also heard from Jared on the recent Fit For An Autopsy, Rivers of Nihil, Revocation, Carnifex, White Chapel, and Devil Driver show. And we checked out "Dyson Sphere" by Allegaeon and “Hidden Lotus” by Eryn...2014-06-061h 14MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 77 - Rock Star sPeakAt some point in your life you've probably imagined, dare we say fantasized, about joining a band you'd have a better chance of picking up a turd by its clean end than being a part of. But it could happen! Here's 5 of ours: Top 5 songs for going all Mark Wahlberg in "Rock Star" Also, after several weeks we finally got to the point where we can talk about Breaking Bad with no spoilers! Leggz finished the series - and took personality tests before during and after the experience. The consensus: the show definitely fucks with your psyche. And we checked...2014-05-111h 27MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 76 - Leave Well Enough Alone sPeakBurning question for your daily team building exercise: Do orgasms have room for improvement? Apparently thousands of people say yes, and one method of choice for said improvement is depriving the brain of oxygen. Of course there's the whole accidental death thing that goes along with it. Which brings us to our topic: Top 5 songs for discovering your roommate has died as a result of autoerotic asphyxiation! We also review the recent Kataklsym, Aborted, Veil of Pnath, and Hordes of Draugar show as well as the Chvrches and The Range show. If you don't know of Chvrches, check out the...2014-04-281h 16MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 75 - 72 Hour Psychiatric Hold sPeakGet your tissues ready... only this time they won't be for cleaning up uncontrollable expulsions emitted out of pure enjoyment at how amazing this show is. No, this time you'll need them for your tears. Lots of tears. Join us as we delve in to top 5 songs for a rainy day, a good book, and chamomile tea... with soy milk... and Stevia. We actually do start the topic out on a bright note - Jared uncovers yet another hidden talent for impressions. In a nutshell, we found out that Bane from "The Dark Knight Rises" is essentially Sean Connery with...2014-04-071h 33MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 74 - Good Morning sPeakPossibly the shortest episode yet - but not for lack of rich content and stimulating discussion. Our proposition this time came straight from the porcelain pot - top 5 songs for trying to pee with morning-wood. Because... let's face it... we're still children. So put on your wet suit and dive in! We also share a few Gwar memories at the untimely passing of Oderus Urungus. And spin "Balkanized" and "Invisible Injury" by Pyrrhon. Finally, as is not uncommon, Daigle couldn't help from sharing his excitement (and possibly over-hyping) the upcoming Taco Bell breakfast menu. For cereal you guys, try the...2014-03-2358 minMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 73 - Winky sPeakKeep raising that bar, heard?!?!?! This time out we grab a relevant topic by the balls: Top 5 songs for finding out the chick who just blew you is packing heat. Just in case you, like Daigle, misunderstood what kind of "heat", make sure you read this interview in preparation for the hilarity about to ensue. Lord Mantis interview http://m.noisey.vice.com/blog/lord-mantis-stream-body-choke-interview We also spin "The Order" by Vital Malice.2014-03-101h 12MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 72 - No Friends sPeakOkay, maybe not everyone mouth riffs... but everybody air drums. Admit it. You love it. Even if, like us, you lack all the coordination required to play any legitimate drum beat; let alone the utterly mind-blowing stuff metal offers up. Seriously, how the fuck do those guys do that shit! Anyway... behold! Top 5 songs that instantly make you start air drumming! Jared also shared something that has apparently been around since 2012 - how had I not seen this, and why isn't anyone using flame sax at their shows????? Terry Crews muscle drums http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6uhQ1NdrgC8 ...2014-02-241h 08MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 71 - Don't Eat The Cake sPeakShenanigans abound this time around! Plus our first female guest host! Zing Jerelyn, lol... Chelsea joins us to talk about top 5 songs for refusing a body scan at the airport - turns out she has experience with this one. Could it be that our topics are actually becoming relevant? Tune in for her story (which involves actual metal) and decide for yourself! Plus a longer than anticipated tangent on "Breaking Bad". If you haven't seen the show, you have homework: 1) take an official personality test 2) marathon the entire series 3) re-take the same test 4) report back to us with your results...2014-02-061h 24MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 70 - Frumunda sPeakOh yeah!!!! Starting off the new year right! ... Right? Top 5 songs for refusing to reciprocate oral. Check out this Louie clip if you need some inspiration: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhF7-QreW2I Plus you know it's gonna be a good year for metal when bands like Ass To Mouth and Arsebreed are putting shit out... so there's that to look forward to. And we take a quick detour to sing the praises of the most intensely draining TV show in history.2014-01-131h 07MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 69 - Credibility sPeakWhat better way to prove we know what we're talking about than with a comprehensive list of our top 10 albums of 2013? How could we possibly screw that up? We couldn't! And we didn't. At least not until the very end. Jared also shared some thoughts on the Fallujah, Sonic Vomit, Vital Malice, and Omnym show. This was Vital Malice's last show guitarist and one time bassist, Nick. Sad to see him go but we wish him the best - and guess who's taking the empty spot? MetalsPeak's own, Leggz! We can only assume that his Celebrity from co-hosting this show...2013-12-092h 38MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 68 - Sensitivity sPeakI'm sensing a theme over the last few episodes here... most _______ topic ever. We took care of "most depressing" already, so naturally the next step is "most uncomfortable" and with that (and a bounty of apologies) we present our Top 5 songs that sound racist, but aren't. At least our seat in Hell will be nice and warm when we get there... We also spin "Torched Skin" by Try Redemption and “Recapitate Your Enemies” by Fistlord.2013-11-1748 minMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 67 - Chunkin sPeakMission Accomplished! What better way to lighten the mood after our space death topic than with the festive frivolity of punkin chunkin... with severed heads... right?!?!? Right. Why severed heads? Because metals. That's why. We also chime in on the hilarious awkwardness that was Marilyn Manson's (Bob from Chattanooga) appearance on Talking Dead. And, if you haven't already, make sure you check out the "This Tour Is Personal" tour happening now with Periphery, Born Of Osiris, Dead Letter Circus, and Twelve Foot Ninja. And then let us know if the full-beer-toss is a new thing that the kids are doing...2013-11-041h 21MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 66 - Decompression sPeakEven though Daigle is the only one of us so far to see "Gravity", the topic of a horribly painful death in space (and of course what songs you'd want serenading you through said awfulness) was well received. Unfortunately, Daigle succumbed to reading into the unpleasantness of what would actually happen in this scenario, which resulted in mass bummer syndrome, a la the infamous Bud Dwyer incident. If nothing else this episode gives excuse for another ridiculous donkey-show-bucket-esque topic, so look forward to that! Also this time out, we heard from Jared and Leggz on the Katatonia, Cult of Luna...2013-10-141h 06MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 65 - Go With Us On This sPeakLet's face it. This topic was inevitable. At some point, everyone hears a song and thinks, "Hey, that would make a killer metal cover!" We are no exception. And so we submit to you, our immense and faithful listener base, 20 songs that are screaming to be covered by metal bands. Plus we go the extra mile and throw in our picks for the bands that should do said covers. Hell. Yes. Other points of interest include Daigle's recap of Metallica's appearance on The Colbert Report, and Jared's run-throughs of the Kelly Clarkson and Psyclon Nine Denver tour stops. Just to...2013-09-301h 35MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 64 - AAGH AGHA AAAAGH sPeakYou can always count on us to provide you with a great soundtrack for the most important moments in your life; like when you have pass a kidney stone. Of course one of your first priorities during this momentous occasion is determining the appropriate playlist. And that is why we do what we do. Daigle took a moment to eat crow on his assumption of how "An Infinite Regression" is played, credit to Leggz for mentioning the utterly mind boggling tutorial on YouTube. HOLY. FUCKING. SHIT. BALLS. We also hear from Jared on the The Acacia Strain, Within The Ruins...2013-09-091h 08MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 63 - Slaughter sPeak IINothing recharges your metal batteries quite like a brilliant live performance - and when you're lucky enough to see several over the course of a weekend, you feel like you could snort your own loogies. Such was the case this past weekend, sans loogies - let's face it, nobody can touch Travis Ryan on that. Between Vapor Fest at The Black Sheep and Summer Slaughter at The Ogden, it was one of the best weekends for metal in recent memory. We heard from Jared on Vapor Fest bands Tree Of Woe, Kill Syndicate, Betrayal, Reflections, Within The Ruins (including interview...2013-08-191h 39MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 62 - Recruit sPeakWe believe that children are our future.

More catchy than the glue board I just accidentally stepped on and can't get my sock off of now; we present our top 5 vocal hooks! Also - full disclosure: Daigle couldn't help himself from mentioning the huge but totally unrelated news story from yesterday regarding author Robert Galbraith's true identity. Yep. Next couple weeks are gonna be a bit slow for new releases, but we spin two tracks from the 8/6 releases from Exhumed and Revocation. These tracks, "Coins Upon The Eyes" and "The Hive", will rip your face off your face. Also, Legz...2013-07-161h 19MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 60 - Food Chain sPeakYou can always count on us to provide you with a playlist to perfectly accompany the most obscure and potentially unlikely scenarios you'll ever encounter. Great example: If you're in a survival situation and you need to resort to cannibalism, what songs do you have playing in the background? Totally legitimacy happening right now. Jared also shares his thoughts on Australian tech death band Entrails Eradicated and their first show in Colorado Springs. And we make up for the serious lack of rage over the last several episodes with another edition of "Shit That Pisses Jared Off"... or at least "...2013-06-181h 15MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 59 - Epic Battle sPeakCody was unusually quiet this go around... meh. Nonetheless we had fun going over our top 5 songs for epic battles. June 11th is going to be a big release day - be prepared to go broke. We also heard from Jared and Legz about the 5/21 Opeth and Katatonia show in Boulder, plus bonus tranny pic snagged semi-incognito (http://www.tryredemption.com/metalspeak/images/Tranny.jpeg). And mark your calendars for Gutfest 5 6/28 and 6/29 at Sunshine Studios.

Behold the top 5 songs for keeping Bubba off your balloon knot while in the slammer. And for those of you playing the MetalsPeak home game, the password is: sriracha enema. We also go through some upcoming releases, hear Cody's thoughts on the Fear Factory show, and get a quick update on the Riff Rag. And if you're in the Colorado Springs area, keep your eyes out for these shows: - Havok CD release at The Black Sheep June 22nd - Try...2013-05-191h 18MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 57 - Tijuana sPeakIf nothing else, this episode is a lesson in how to reinvent and expand your product. Six words: Polyrhythmic jizz bong Tijuana diarrhea nipples. Here are our top 5 songs for getting dysentery from drinking out of the bucket at a donkey show. What bucket, you say? You know what bucket. You're scared, you say? You should be. We also go over some upcoming releases to look out for and spend a few moments lamenting the passing of Jeff Hanneman, including Jared's thoughts on the Westboro Baptist Church picketing his funeral. Good luck, fuckers. And we check out the sweet “Ordinary Wo...2013-05-061h 13MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 56 - Soil Factory sPeakSome sites may say they push the envelope but here's proof that we walk that talk. In this episode, we slam your ear drums with more hosts than ever in MetalsPeak history PLUS a live studio audience! Daigle, Jared, Matt, Legz, and Stu discuss highlights of both the Soilwork and Fear Factory tours, whilst Cody trembles in girlish anticipation of the Jacksonville stops of said tours. All while Fistlord drummer Gentry listens in and basically has the time of his life. Yep. It's pretty epic in here.

Since we know you've been waiting patiently for us to get to this, here are our top 5 songs to have a limb amputated to. You're welcome. Also, we run through some new releases to look forward to, share a couple thoughts on "New MySpace" and check out “The Master Key” by Daliss Koyal and “Laced Baby Food” by Amputee Pool Party. And then we take advantage of the shorter episode by getting completely side tra...2013-04-071h 12MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 54 - Flash sPeakWho at some point in their life hasn't asked themselves, "What metal song should I coordinate a flash mob to?" The answer of course, is no one. And now you can finally compare your picks with ours. You're welcome. We also talk about Jonathan Carpenter's departure from The Contortionist, revisit our Summer Slaughter predictions, and go over new releases to look forward to (seriously, you need to check out Cnoc An Tursa). And then on a personal note, Try Redemption is "homeless" and needs a space to practice - so we took the self serving opportunity to play "Bleeding Eyes"...2013-03-241h 31MetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak - EpisodesMetalsPeak 53 - Meltdown sPeakEver have that moment in your life when your tech gear decides your day needs to be ruined?

Now, over a week later, the situation has been remedied, but we can't remember a damn thing about this episode and are too lazy to listen back. Actually that's not true - we remember that someone named Cody made a powerful comeback, and that we went over our picks for top 5 disasters.
