"Bad" Albums by Great Bands
Colin and Bo discuss "Bad" albums by great bands across all spectrums of music. BAD is in quotes because in these cases, it was merely the perception of the critics and audiences at the times of release for the albums being discussed, but doesn't speak to the objective strengths of each.
The majority of this episode offers thorough defense of some of the most panned releases in the history of metal/hardcore/punk/rock music.
