Mon, 13 May 2024 - 38min - 588 - YES (FOR METALHEADS) - In 40 Minutes
I'll be honest. I've always struggled with getting my head around all things Yes, finding much of their discography overly complex and pretentious ... fidgety-on-purpose ear-ache-my-eye kinda stuff. However, after much training and coaxing from my brother who absolutely adores the band, I have been able to extract an hour and half of their material that sits comfortably in my best-of prog rock file. Here I have extracted 50 minutes from that file, a playlist that I hope may just appeal to you metalheads out there who are also struggling with the enigma that is Yes. I've seen all good headbangers joining the Yes call!!! Side One The Yes Album (1971) (0:00) I've Seen All Good People (6:47) Starship Trooper Fragile (1971) (16:15) We Have Heaven (17:44) Roundabout Side 2 (26:15) Long Distance Runaround Close To the Edge (1972) (29:49) Siberian Khatru Drama (1980) (38:48) Tempus Fugit (44:01) Machine Messiah

Mon, 29 Apr 2024 - 42min - 583 - HEART (THE ROCKERS) - In 40 Minutes
Sure, sure Heart joined the long list of corporate whore rockers, well deserving of rockers' disdain for the band. However, in the 70s (and 1980's Bebe Le Strange) Heart mixed mellow moments with hard hitting rock-outs on their full lengths. For this playlist, The Mighty Decibel has compiled the best rock tracks from the band's early (and best) material. Kick it out!!!!

We continue our 'The Year In Metal" series moving into the 90s ... not a great decade for the fortunes of heavy metal.

From extreme metal to folk metal, from punk to hard rock, from boogie rock to grindcore ... it's all represented in this ode to 1991. Don't worry though, metal will arise after the 90s!!!

Undoubtedly, most fans of Britain's mighty Status Quo revere the band's 70s output while poopooing everything thereafter. Personally, I laugh in their direction, as the boogie merchant's discography is littered with great tracks and albums after their 70s heydays. Here we have compiled the cream of the crop of Status Quo's 80s output for your listening pleasure proving once again why they are the best rock'n'roll band of all time.

Mon, 26 Feb 2024 - 40min - 563 - BLACKMORE'S NIGHT - In 40 Minutes
Many a hard rocker have turned their backs to Ritchie Blackmore when he hung up his electric guitar in the late 90s to entertain his interest in Renaissance music by creating Blackmore's Night with his vocalist and soon to be wife, Candace Night. Sure, Deep Purple and Rainbow fanatics will not find power chords in this venture, but dammit what beautiful sounds you'll encounter if you open your ears to the band. Hurdy gurdy, acoustic guitar, mandolin and wood winds abound as the music takes you back to a time when music was played by candle light. In this playlist you'll find the essential 40 minutes from the Blackmore's Night discography. Raise your hands and your glasses too!!!

We here at The Mighty Decibel cauliflower our ears with metal/punk beatings on a regular basis, so it's good to listen to some wimphem the odd time to rest our nerves and earholes. And one of the wimpiest artists we listen to has to be Hartmann who are led by ex At-Vance guitarist/vocalist Oliver Hartmann. His breathy vocals remind me of David Coverdale of Deep Purple/Whitesnake fame, while the music is a mix of melodic hard rock and outright ballads (gasp!). Yeah, yeah - call me a wimp. But lend an ear to this and I'll bet that you'll be drawn into its dastardly grip too. Don't be left out in the cold ... come alive again!!!

Time to celebrate the recording history of what I consider to be the greatest unknown melodic metal outfit on the planet ... High Spirits. The first three albums are absolute classics of the genre, haymakers littering the albums just waiting for people to discover.

What's a "legacy band" you ask? It's a unit that made its commercial peak in the 70s/80s who continue to tour &/or issue new releases. This episode we will be focusing on legacy bands that have issued a great album(s) in the 2Ks ... but by-in-large escaped notice. At The Mighty Decibel, we say it's time to return to the altar.

Mon, 30 Oct 2023 - 45min - 521 - WAR - In 40 Minutes
War (or Total War as they were known later) was a short lived project in the late 90s (that included members of Necrophobic, Abruptum, In Aeturnum and Hypocrisy) that only issued one EP and one full length. So why do they deserve the In 40 Minutes treatment? Because here we have one of the best (THE best?) vicious black metal bands on this much maligned earth. Sure, Marduk has a more extensive discography, but I would put both of War's releases right up there with Panzer Division Marduk in the "Best Violent Black Metal Album of All Time" category. You are nothing - but worms!!!!

Tue, 24 Oct 2023 - 33min - 520 - TED NUGENT - Discography Review
It's time to celebrate the recording legacy of one Theodore Anthony Nugent ... the Motorcity Madman, Uncle Ted, the Nuge, Deadly Tedly, Terrible Ted. You may not agree with his politics, but there's no debating that the man can play the hell out of his Gibson Byrdland. His demand over feedback acoustics and energy levels are unquestionable and in a live setting there are no equals when it comes to guitar showmen. So come join The Mighty Decibel as we critically assess all 17 of Nugent's solo studio outings, lustily praising some works and outright condemning a few others. You got to live it up!!!
Mon, 23 Oct 2023 - 48min - 519 - AN INTRODUCTION TO ... 70s/80s ROCK'N'ROLL FOR METALHEADS
Metalheads should always remember that heavy metal was (partly) derived from rock'n'roll music.

Thu, 07 Sep 2023 - 19min - 505 - AN INTRODUCTION TO ... NWOBHM (Part I)
Welcome to our AN INTRODUCTION TO ... series where we provide a playlist that is representative of the sub-genre in question. This first episode we focus on the early years of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM), specifically 1979 thru 1981 (part 2 covering '82-'84 to follow). Here we've selected songs that we think encapsulate the youthfull energy that came to be representative of the NWOBHM. Additionally, we've enlisted the one-song-per-band rule, hence, some of the bigger bands not overtaking the playlist. Further, we've not included at-the-time veteran bands who heavied up their sound to compete with the many new units hitting the scene (UFO, Budgie,etc.). C'mon let's go - it's electric!!!! Side 1 (0:00) "Poison": MOTORHEAD - Bomber ('79) (2:52) "Euthanasia": TYGERS OF PAN TANG - Wild Cat ('80) (6:36) "Freeway Mad": SAXON - Wheels of Steel ('80) (9:16) "Out of the Way": VARDIS - 100 MPH ('80) (12:12) "Wasted": DEF LEPPARD - On Through the Night ('80) (15:59) "Iron Maiden": IRON MAIDEN - Iron Maiden ('80) (19:30) "Atlantis": ANGELWITCH - Angelwitch ('80) Side 2 (23:11) "It's Electric": DIAMOND HEAD - Lightning to the Nations ('80) (26:43) "Angel Dust": VENOM - Welcome To Hell ('81) (29:20) "Panic In the Streets": PRAYING MANTIS - Time Tells No Lies ('81) (33:01) "Death Or Glory": HOLOCAUST - The Nightcomers ('81) (36:33) "Don't Need Your Money": RAVEN - Rock Until You Drop ('81) (39:49) "I'm Your Victim": GIRLSCHOOL - Hit and Run ('81)

Mon, 28 Aug 2023 - 48min - 502 - MOLLY HATCHET (Latter Era) - In 40 Minutes
Hell yeah!!! Time for some heavy southern rock from the legendary Molly Hatchet! Specifically, this playlist contains the best tracks of the latter era of the band which continues to be led by guitarist Bobby Ingram over its last five studio albums. This period of the band continues to be ignored by early era fans due to the non-inclusion of any original members (other than Danny Joe Brown on the first release), but there's some great material to be found. So, The Mighty Decibel steps up to educate the masses on what they've been missing. The South will rise again!!! Side One Devil's Canyon (1996) (0:00) Down From The Mountain (4:38) Devil's Canyon Silent Reign of Heroes (1998) (10:54) Saddle Tramp Kingdom of XII (2000) (18:09) Gypsy Trail Side 2 (21:55) White Lightning (25:45) Angel of Dixie Warriors of Rainbow Brisge (2005) (29:53) Gone In Sixty Seconds Justice (2010) (33:28) Been To Heaven, Been To Hell

Mon, 14 Aug 2023 - 29min - 498 - MOLLY HATCHET (Danny Joe Brown Era) - In 40 Minutes
When it comes to Southern rock, the first band that comes to The Mighty Decibel's mind is Molly Hatchet (with Blackfoot and ZZ Top coming in second and third, respectively). And most (if not all) fans of the Jacksonville, Florida unit would point to the albums featuring Danny Joe Brown at the mic as being the cream of the discography. So here we are proud to present a playlist chock full of the best Danny Joe Brown-led Molly Hatchet tracks for your conspicuous consumption. (Could have easily made another representative and amazing 40 minute playlist given the preponderance of great material throughout this period, but that's for another day!) Boogie no more?

Thu, 03 Aug 2023 - 16min - 495 - 1986 THE YEAR IN HEAVY MUSIC - In 40 Minutes
Welcome to 1986 when extreme metal flexed its muscles, pushing aside all other forms of heavy into the background. Some would argue that it just may be the greatest year in heavy music history given the preponderance of classic releases. Thrash metal was the prime mover with Slayer's unfathomable Reign In Blood leading the way. Hardcore punk also made some noise with Final Conflict's Ashes To Ashes as its ringleader (an album I consider to be the greatest record of the sub-genre ever issued). Cryptic Slaughter and The Accused represent the crossover/speedcore front, while Agnostic Front carry the NYHC banner. Of course, Black Sabbath, Ramones and Motorhead were still making glorious noise in '86, as well. Embrace the constant fear and ye shall be reborn!!!! Side 1 (0:00) "Reborn": SLAYER - Reign In Blood (2:11) "Command of the Blade": KREATOR - Pleasure To Kill (6:05) "Shits Creek": CRUMBSUCKERS - Life of Dreams (8:13) "Eternal Ban": DESTRUCTION - Eternal Devestation (11:50) "Constant Fear/Political Glory": FINAL CONFLICT - Ashes To Ashes (16:39) "Stand Before Kings": RAZOR - Malicious Intent (19:25) "The Burning of Sodom": DARK ANGEL - Darkness Descends Side 2 (22:40) "Power Thrashing Death": WHIPLASH - Power & Pain (26:51) "Rage To Kill": CRYPTIC SLAUGHTER - Convicted (28:37) "In For The Kill": BLACK SABBATH - Seventh Star (32:16) "Fuckin' For Bucks": THE ACCUSED - The Return of Martha Splatterhead (34:33) "Ridin' With The Driver": MOTORHEAD - Orgasmatron (38:20) "The Eliminator": AGNOSTIC FRONT - Cause For Alarm (41:30) "Love Kills": RAMONES - Animal Boy

Mon, 31 Jul 2023 - 39min - 493 - WYTCH HAZEL - In 40 Minutes
Seems that us metalheads are inundated with all things Satan, so it's time for The Mighty Decibel to do its part and disseminate some white metal/hard rock to try to balance the playing field a bit. And who better to turn to than UK Christian outfit Wytch Hazel for this task. For those who scoff at the idea of this type of fare, take a listen to this curated playlist of their best material over their four full lengths to date (including their masterpiece, III : Pentecost). Excellent old school hard rock/metal with references to Thin Lizzy in the dual guitar department and magnificent vocal melodies to sing along to. Show us the way!!!

Mon, 24 Jul 2023 - 16min - 491 - 1981 : THE YEAR IN HEAVY - In 40 Minutes
Onto the 80s we go and heavy metal/hard rock was undeniably on the upswing. A bunch of young whippsnappers were nipping at the heels of the established giants, egging them onto heavier and better heights. So it's more than appropriate that our playlist oscilates between the NWOBHM and veteran camps throughout this head-shakingly good set of tracks. There's panic in the streets when the mob rules!!! Side 1 (0:00) "The Mob Rules" - BLACK SABBATH - Mob Rules (3:14) "Wrathchild": IRON MAIDEN - Killers (6:09) "On The Run": JUDAS PRIEST - Point of Entry (9:52) "Fire Down Under": RIOT - Fire Down Under (12:25) "Chains Chains": UFO - The Wild, The Willing and the Innocent (15:51) "Angel Dust": VENOM - Welcome To Hell (18:31) "Hollywood (Down On Your Luck)": THIN LIZZY - Renegade Side 2 (22:41) "Panic In The Streets" - PRAYING MANTIS - Time Tells No Lies (26:24) "Enough Is Enough": STATUS QUO - Never Too Late (29:16) "Raised On Rock": TYGERS OF PAN TANG - Crazy Nights (32:39) "Good Morning": BLACKFOOT - Marauder (36:16) "Love Is Dead": VARDIS - The World's Insane (38:59) "Crazy Miss Daisy": FRANK MARINO - The Power of Rock'N'Roll (42:08) "Mr. 69": KROKUS - Hardware (45:18) "Witch Hunt": RUSH - Moving Pictures
