  Sep 25, 202624 minS1

  It’s a strange week for new releases — not necessarily packed with obvious must-hear records, but there are plenty of things worth digging into. Tom Morello leads the way, along with new music from The Ocean, Nothing But Thieves, Gilla Band, Protomartyr and more. Then we get into the news: Slipknot are teasing something, Maria Brink has a new project on the way, Carrie Underwood may be going rock, and there are updates from Rush, Bad Brains, Queens of the Stone Age and more. Plus: John Coltrane, shiny legs, and absolutely no pew-pew sound effects. New episodes every Tuesday and Friday. amplifiedwithdarby.com All the news, all the noise, all in one place. Hosted on Acast.

  Episode 88: Metallica Wants Your Blood, Angus Young Signs a Baby & My Picks of the Week

  Sep 22, 202624 minS1

  Three more albums make my Picks of the Week—including a dark, atmospheric new release I couldn’t stop playing, something completely outside the rock/metal lane, and a brutally heavy record from the past with a pretty incredible connection. Plus: some sad news from the rock world, Metallica wants your blood, Dirty Honey finally makes it official, Ozzfest is expanding, Quiet Riot finds its new voice, and Angus Young has one of the stranger fan encounters you’ll hear about. And somehow we end up talking about Lenny Kravitz’s rack, National Album Day, internet piracy, and one of the best books I’ve read in a long time.

  Metallica, Mastodon, Turnstile & Rock’s Anniversary Cash Grab | AMPLIFIED #87

  Sep 15, 202621 min

  Metallica and a legendary filmmaker might be a match that absolutely needs to happen. There’s both messy and very cool news in the Mastodon world, Turnstile continues to show up everywhere, and I’ve had enough of bands inventing anniversaries just to sell us the same record again. Plus, new music, some unexpected collaborations, a rock documentary I absolutely want to see, and somehow we end up talking about veggie burgers and meatloaf dippers. And of course, I’ve got my New Rock, Not-New Rock and Not-Rock Picks of the Week — including one album I spent a lot more time with this weekend and absolutely loved.
