Pedal To The Metal Radio: Live On Facebook Playlist 4/18/2020

Last night, I attempted to do the first ever livestream episode of Pedal To The Metal radio live on the Pedal To The Metal Facebook page. The show started off without a hitch and it was going so well for the first half hour until I was disconnected for the first time. I figured maybe the reason for it was due to the track that I was playing, but then I was almost immediately booted off again during a Korn track for what Facebook said was Canada's fault because I was playing copy-written music. That ticked me off and when I came back for the third time, I had no choice, but to play Unsigned bands right after the two Mashups I played. So, House Party Isolation Style did not go the way I wanted it to, but I thought it finished strongly. Here is the playlist to the episode:

1. Saturday Nights Alright For Fighting by W.A.S.P.
2. Year Zero by Ghost
3. Blasphemy by Bring Me The Horizon
4.  No Masters by Bad Wolves
5. The Ghost That's Haunting You by Trivium
6. Layers Of Time by Lacuna Coil
7. Enough by Nerv (Special Request)
8. Fuck You and All Your Friends by Falling In Reverse
9. Don't Go Away Mad by Motley Crue
10. Cold by Korn
11. Girls, Girls, Girls! (You Mama, Too) by Bill McClintock
12. With A Rebel Yell She Cried, Don't Give Up The Fight by Bill McClintock
13. Bombs Away by Bloodline Theory
14. The Dark Of Night by Ensilenced
15. The Cold by Beyond Deth
16. That Which Is Unnameable by ZFL
17. Callow by .Bipolar
18. War Inside My Head by Activate
19. Season Of The Witch by Youngblood Supercult
20. Godless by Bloodshot Dawn

We didn't want to touch that topic for a while, but things are getting a little out of hand these days. We also for the first time have the Mashup Of The Week from Bill McClintock (McClintock Mashups) called Girls, Girls, Girls! (Your Mama, Too) (Motley Crue Vs Cameo), and we have Pustulus Maximus of GWAR on this week's edition of Chatroom Talk. During the episode, we talked about a great project from a band called Till The Days End which features Periphery drummer Matt Halpern, A Perfect Circle bassist Matt McJunkins, and Vestascensions guitarist Justin Gosnell. The track which is titled The Road To Awakening is the band's way of raising money to benefit the Mental Health Association of Frederick County. You can donate by purchasing the single here.

Pedal To The Metal: The Podcast Episode 3

That's right people, after having the long lost interview with Mark Kendall of Great White last week, we have survived another week of lockdown to bring you another episode of the show. We have a couple of new segments this week that we are going to try and do every week as long as we possibly can with the first being the Unsigned Band of the Week. Each and every week, we are going to showcase a band from anywhere in the United States and anywhere in the whole entire world. So, if you are Unsigned and you want to be on the podcast, then reach out to the show's email address pedaltothemetalradioshow@gmail.com and we will get you on. The first band that we featured for you guys comes all the way from New Haven, CT and they are called Fear The Masses. The band combines elements of Hip Hop, Nu-Metal, Metalcore, to bring you an in your face approach and the band's lyrical content is just as intense as they still socially and economically aware as well. Also this week, we have a bizzare story to tell about Jean-Pascal Fournier and what he did to his poor 80 year old father. We also have a new segment called Chat Room Talks where I go into chat rooms and ask bands some questions and I record their reponses if they answer my question and this week we have Andreas Kisser and Derrick Greene of Sepulura.
