If wishes were trees the trees would be falling

Listen to reason

Season is calling

A group of beligerant, experimental, avant-garde bohemians from Athens Georgia seem an unlikely group to defy the odds and hit four consecutive multi-platinum records, but that's exactly what R.E.M. did between 1988 and 1994 with their smash albums Green, Out of Time, Automatic for the People, and Monster. We're heading into slightly different territory from anything we've covered to this point as we discuss the merits of having a singularly distinctive vocalist and three musicians who simply don't want to confirm to any standard of what music should sound like. But will Kev's ratings line up with his nostalgic fondness for these four records and will Corey's patience be tested by the less mainstream directions that these four gents take?

The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and stand in the place where you live!

After Kev put on his steel toecaps and booted Def Leppard, Quiet Riot, Kiss, and Mötley Crüe in the kidneys for a few hours, we figured we should probably bring in a defender of the hard rock faith. Who would we turn to other than the brilliant opposing counsel from the upcoming first season of Rock Court, Heath McCoy. Heath has been a regular contributor to Corey's Van Halen podcast for the past three years and he and Kev have rattled sabres on many occasions regarding David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar, so will this latest meeting produce any fireworks? Will Heath actually attempt to justify Dance All Over Your Face? And will Corey have to step in to separate these two lunkheads?

The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and remember, it's only a bloody record!

One hundred episodes of Corey and Kev talking about music. We've loved every minute of it so far and we've been humbled and delighted by the fact that so many of you have joined us for the ride!

For this special celebratory episode we're looking back at two albums that we feel were underrated for one reason or another to see if re-listening to them now in the context of an entire season and now an entire show will change our minds at all! We're also taking question from you, our awesome listeners so thanks to everyone who submitted those on Discord!

Will Kev have mellowed on the Black Album and now that Corey has Duke on vinyl, how will his ratings change, if at all?

The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and get ready for the next hundred!
