Monday May 15, 2023
Monday May 15, 2023
And Now... we come the fourth and final album from this legendary and groundbreaking band, The Runaways. Constant lineup changes, different artistic visions, infighting and exploitation have sadly driven The Runaways into oblivion - let's see if it ends with a bang or a whimper.

Sunday Feb 26, 2023
Released in 1977, the second album from the now-legendary Runaways saw a step up in production values and musical sophistication. But did this come at the expense of the raw energy and passion that made the first album such a fun listen? Well, I guess it's time to find out...

The 'Point Zero' episodes are where we choose the next band (or two, or three...) to get the album-by-album, track-by-track Unshuffled treatment. Tune in and see who we chose and why, and also to hear about the also-rans. In this one we theme our selections to ensure we get an old band and a doom band. And stay tuned for the twist at the end!

Denver alt-rockers Abrams recently released a new album, In The Dark, and as we always do on Unshuffled with bands we've covered before, we take a deep dive on this one too. They showed a great deal of evolution and change through their first three albums - let's see if it continues here...

Sunday Dec 04, 2022
Sunday Dec 04, 2022
Cavalera Conspiracy's fourth album, Psychosis, may also be their last, as guitarist Marc RIzzo has recently split from the band. Arthur Rizk handles both bass and production duties on this one, having previously done such a stellar production job with Power Trip. Let's see if he can work his magic here again.

Sunday Oct 23, 2022
Cavalera Conspiracy's third album, Pandemonium, was largely overlooked by metal critics, and the few that reviewed it didn't seem to think much of it. But perhaps this one deserves a little more attention than it got at the time. There's only one way to find out...

Sunday Sep 04, 2022
Max and Iggor are back... again! The sheer joy that metalheads felt upon their reunification meant that their first album was received with overwhelming enthusiasm. The obvious question then was: how would they follow it up? Give it a listen via your usual streaming services (or buy the physical media!), then give us a listen as we break it down.

Tuesday Jun 28, 2022
The reunification of the Cavalera brothers had the metal world in raptures, and yet somehow... we completely missed it! But that's what Unshuffled is all about - going back and catching up on those bands and albums you missed first time around. Can this album possibly live up to the expectations of the fans? Give it a listen, then give us a listen as we break it down together.
