Tuesday Dec 25, 2012
Tuesday Dec 25, 2012
Season Two of Dig Me Out is in the books! For the last episode of 2012, we're taking a look back at our sophomore year and picking our top five favorite songs as well as our new album discovery.
We've got plenty of thanks to dispense to those who made Season Two a huge success: all of our great guests and folks who suggested albums, and of course our listeners.
Lastly, towards the end of the show there is a special announcement regarding something brand new in 2013 (hint: it's music related).
Note: Tim imbibed too much celebratory champagne and thought this podcast went up New Year's Day instead of Christmas Day. Tim promises to lay off the champagne in future episodes.

For our last review of 2012, of course it's a listener suggestion. To wrap it up, we're checking out Chicago's Eleventh Dream Day and their 1993 album El Moodio.

#100: Magic and Madness by Circus of Power
Tuesday Dec 11, 2012
Tuesday Dec 11, 2012
Episode #100 marks the second of two listener suggestion episodes that ignore the alternative and indie rock explosion of the 1990s in favor of some straight-up rock and roll that draws influences from metal, glam and hard rock of the previous decade. This week, it's Circus of Power and their 1993 album Magic & Madness. A number of bands pinned to the hair/glam rock era of the 1980s tried to transition their sound in the 90s, some successful and some not. COP worked with Jerry Cantrell of Alice and Chains and toured with Gruntruck, making an attempt to move in a more straightforward hard rock direction. Is it magic or madness? Tune in to find out.
Songs in this Episode:
Intro - Heaven & Hell
2:29 - History of the Band
7:05 - Swamp Devil
10:37 - Mama Tequila
17:49 - Black Roses
24:50 - Otta My Head
Outro - Shine

#099: The Silent Majority by Life, Sex and Death
Tuesday Dec 04, 2012
Tuesday Dec 04, 2012
Thanks to a listener suggestion we're starting a two week exploration of the metal, glam and hard rock end of the 1990s with Life, Sex & Death, and their 1992 album The Silent Majority. Jason says LSD are the best live band he's ever seen, and has plenty to share about this one-album-and-done band that featured Van Halen-style riffs with Tom Waits-esque vocals, a weird combination that shouldn't work but somehow does.
