Two Decades Too Late

Happy election week, gang. By shear cosmic providence we have a special episode for you. A bit of a departure from the norm, this week Brad and Josh are reviewing American Idiot by Green Day. This album came out in 2004. Twenty years ago ('cause that's our shtick). Let's see how the themes of the day apply to our current society. Have things gotten better? Have things gotten worse? Let's listen to the music and decide.

Ship? Check. Lighthouse? Check. Waves? Check. Wolves? You betcha! This week on the Two Decades Too Late podcast, Brad and Josh are reviewing Reckoning Night from Sonata Arctica. If you like symphonic metal, you're probably in for a good time. If you're not into symphonic metal, you might still be in for a good time. Tune in and find out how this one holds up after 20 years. Has symphonic metal gotten old? Probably not.

So hear us out...how much better would the movie The Birds be if the birds had bullets? If you agree with us that the answer is a LOT, then you're in luck! This week, Two Decades Too Late reviews the Lamb of God album Ashes of the Wake! Tune in and find out just how hard we are feeling the 2004 of this album.

Watch where you point your finger because on this week of the Two Decades Too Late podcast, Brad and Josh are taking a trip to Hollywood. We've got the 2004 release from He is Legend, I Am Hollywood. It's a fairytale jaunt through dangerous woods, smooth bass lines, and nutty drum beats. This album was a favorite in 2004, let's see if it stands the test of time. Will Heather come home? Tune in to find out.

Oli Herbert was the man at guitar. I know it, you know it, and on this week's episode of the Two Decades Too Late podcast, Brad and Josh are digging into just how true this is. This week, we've got This Darkened Heart from All That Remains. It was a monster album in 2004. Did it stand the test of time? Maybe. Was Oli Herbert good at guitar? Absolutely.
