We're back to time travel through rock history with another issue of the Decibel Geek Times. In this edition, we pay tribute to several rock legends on their deathdays, honoring the lasting impact of Dick Wagner, Jack Russell, Eric Wagner, Les Paul, Dave Williams, and Pete Way. We also celebrate a wide range of album anniversaries spanning 15 to 40 years. From Iron Maiden’s The Final Frontier — the album that trolled fans into thinking it could be their last — to Dio’s Sacred Heart, we revisit the stories, chart stats, and behind-the-scenes moments that made these records memorable. Highlights include Halford’s triumphant Resurrection, Extreme’s career-defining Pornograffitti, Mother Love Bone’s bittersweet debut Apple, and many more milestones across the decades. On the new music front, there’s plenty to be excited about. Alice Cooper returns with The Revenge of Alice Cooper, reuniting original band members and even featuring vintage guitar work from the late Glen Buxton. Honeymoon Suite drops Wake Me Up When the Sun Goes Down, Halestorm climbs to new heights with Everest, Ellefson Soto unleashes Unbreakable, and fresh releases from Chevelle and The Rods round out your next listens. It's all that and a whole lot more in this issue of the Decibel Geek Times. We hope you enjoy and SHARE with a friend. Decibel Geek is a proud member of the Pantheon Podcasts Family. Contact Us!

We're back with a new edition of an old favorite as we go On Assignment to review Sammy Hagar's 'I Never Said Goodbye.' Yes, you read that right. The goal of On Assignment is to have a friend pick an album for us to review. After a long run of defending Sammy Hagar's honor on the Decibel Geek podcast Facebook page, loyal listener Troy Maturin put us to the test by assigning his favorite Sammy Hagar album, 1987's 'I Never Said Goodbye.' After all of our jabs over the years, would a listen of this album turn us into Redheads? Would we swear off allegiance to David Lee Roth and see the error of our ways? Or, will we offend Troy to the point of him walking off the show? All questions that can only be answered by giving it a listen. We promise some healthy debate and a ton of laughs in this episode. We thank Troy for being on the show and rolling with our silliness. We hope you enjoy On Assignment: Sammy Hagar - I Never Said Goodbye and SHARE with a friend! Contact Us!
