1,2 F You! The crushing debut from the Canadian thrashers Slaughter is an all fave around the RAM office. "Strappado" is also the one of the most influential albums in the Death Metal underground. And, this platter of splatter is celebrating its fourth decade (!) of existence this year. So this week we're featuring it in our "40th Anniversary Album Spotlight Series". We do a track by track deep dive. Share how we first discovered the mighty Slaughter. And try to straighten out the whole monicker mess with the fake (s)laughter. Happy Bday to drummer/founder Ron Sumner who was celebrating his Bday when we pressed "record". In our "News, Views and Tunes', we share our chat with an A.I. music creator and put over the new Megadeth record. Musically, we crank some Slaughter, Nunslaughter, Kate's Acid, Dr. And The Crippens, Gravewitch, Outpost 31 and introduce Seattle's Rotgut in our "Indie Spotlight". Horns Up!!
