Radio Toilet ov Hell

This week: Our final episode of The 2024 Halloween Spooktacular. We’re joined by returning champion Shayne Mathis to talk about Demons (1985), a movie about how much fun it is to skip school and go watch horror movies instead. For folks unfamiliar, Demons is a much-beloved Italian zombie flick that features the music of early Motley Crue, Saxon, Accept, and Billy Idol. It also features a much-beloved scene in which a guy rides a dirt bike around a movie theater chopping heads off with a sword. It rules. Join us as we talk about sleazy Italians, hidden horror gems, and big, mainstream coworker heavy metal. Folks, it’s a good one. Join us next week as we get back to your regularly scheduled making-fun-of-metal-guys content. Happy Halloween. Want more Toilet Radio?

This week we’re joined by Dave from Earsplit PR and noise-favorites Gridfailure. Dave felt we were having way too much fun with lighthearted horror romps and decided that we need to get grimy and horrifying ASAP with a modern horror classic. We’re talking about 2011’s SINISTER. Join us as we put on Ethan Hawke’s acting sweater to talk about found-footage, black metal antagonists, Boards of Canada, and Ziggy Sobotka in this genuinely evil-ass motion picture. But that’s not all, we’re also talking about horror sequels, managing promotions for major bands, using found-sound for compositions, and lessons learned across a lifetime in horror and heavy metal. It’s a good one. Join us next week as we talk DEMONI with a very special guest. Want more Toilet Radio?

This week we’re joined by returning champion Maggie Serota to talk about 2014 action/horror cult classic The Guest. In his follow-up to 2013’s You’re Next, Adam Wingard imagines The Terminator and Halloween 3 through a lens of CW teen dramas and cocaine-infused beats. Scored by Zombi’s Steve Moore, The Guest offers a thrilling soundtrack to go along with the hyperviolence that results when a stranger comes to town and not all is as it seems. Folks, it is a good one. Join us next week as we watch Sinister (2012) with a very special guest. Want more Toilet Radio?

We’re joined by Greg from Nefarious Industries to talk about Peter Jackson’s horror comedy classic, Dead Alive (or Braindead if you’re a Euro). Long before The Lord of the Rings, Peter trafficked in the grotesque and absurd to create low-budget pictures jam-packed with guts and goo. We talk about his most splatter-y early work here. But that’s not all, Greg tells us all about the mechanics of running a record label and touring with bands on $20 bucks a day. It’s a good one folks. Join us next week as we discuss The Guest (2014) with a very special… guest. Want more Toilet Radio?

We’re kicking off the October Spooktacular, our month-long celebration of horror movies, with special guest Maddie (aka Beaver Mosh)! Maddie took some time off from interviewing cool metal bands to talk to us about one of her favorite horror movies – the OG in sci fi horror: Alien (1979). We’re talking about the movie that spawned a million sequels, spin-offs, comics, and video games. Does the Alien eat people or just kinda chew on them? Is Jonesy an android? What is the goopy white stuff dripping out of Ash? And finally, what happened to Ridley Scott? These questions and more explored on this week’s episode. Join us next week as we discuss Peter Jackson’s sublime Dead Alive with a very special guest. Want more Toilet Radio?

Oh god. Phil Labonte wrote an op-ed for Fox News about how society doesn’t value men. Join us as we engage with his arguments, discuss the implications of patriarchal decline, and otherwise attack the character, beliefs, and appearance of the author. We also spend a lil time talking about a smart tactical move by The Blood Brothers on their upcoming reunion tour, Power Trip* playing shows with Pantera*, and the inevitable return of Warped Tour. Folks, it’s a weird one. Want more Toilet Radio? Get hundreds of hours of exclusive content and access to the TovH Discord over at the Toilet ov Hell Patreon.

Tim Lambesis and Alex Terrible team up for an awful new song about how much incarceration sucks, the latest in diminishing returns from the reformed As I Lay Dying. We also learned that Janes Addiction returned by means of Perry Farrell having an extremely funny on-stage meltdown. Dez from Coal Chamber and Devil Driver has made powerful enemies with medical staff, drummers. Unto Others (formerly Idle Hands) got dropped from their upcoming tour with WASP and we learned that WASP has violently stupid opinions about Arabs. Cryptopsy has some baffling new merchandise for us to gawk at and, finally, Sanguisugabogg should probably stop tweeting whatever dumb bullshit comes to mind. Folks, it’s a good one.

This week on Toilet Radio: We learn that right-wing media company Tenet Media, may be doing a little light treason with the help of Tim Pool, Phil Labonte, and the Russian government. Whoops! Also, At the Drive In’s Cedric Bixler-Zavala is going to war with Scientology and, by extension, Linkin Park’s new vocalist. Wes Eisgold of Cold Cave and American Nightmare is suing the WWE and Cody Rhodes for trademark infringement and we discuss fun new wrestling angles to cover the lawsuit. Happy 9/11.

On this episode of Toilet Radio: Oops! All Our Guys! We promise one hour of nothing but talking about the dopes we’ve somehow spent many hours talking about already. TO START: RFK Jr dropped out of the presidential race and it’s got Ash from Sumerian Records all itchy and chafe-y so you know he’s gotta threaten some spurious legal action over it. Dumb! Also, Ronnie Radke is pursuing his own spurious legal action against YouTube talking head Anthony Fantano in what may be the most doomed lawsuit in history. Huzzah! Finally, Tommy Vext is BACK! With Ill Nino of all things! It’ll probably go well! Folks, it’s a good one. Want more Toilet Radio?

We’re enjoying the final days of Summer and there’s no better way to celebrate than by taking an audio journey to the Southern hemisphere. A couple years ago we made a trek to Japan to enjoy a wide variety of heavy metal noises. This time around we’re setting our sights on Chile. Join me and Jordan as we learn some cursory facts about the longest country and explore some ripping thrash, crushing death, and tearfully sad boi doom metal.  If you really dig any of these selections let us know below and, as always, you should purchase the full releases using one of the handy links below.
