Unshuffled

Episode Three Point Four: The Way Of All Flesh

Pandemics, monoliths in the desert, zombie minks... if this is the apocalypse, Gojira have the perfect soundtrack for you - 2008's The Way Of All Flesh. The dark album artwork and photography hint at the 75 minute exploration of death and dying that lie within. This ain't Burt Bacharach!

Episode Three Point Three: From Mars To Sirius

As Douglas Adams once noted, space is “not a naturally tenable position for a whale”, but that didn't stop Gojira basing an album around the concept. Widely recognised as a landmark album in modern metal music, does From Mars To Sirius live up to the hype?

Episode Three Point Two: The Link

We're systematic and proud of it, and that means it's time to discuss the second album by our current band, French metal giants Gojira. This one seems to be viewed by many as a mere stepping stone on the path to the greatness of the later albums, but how does it stand on its own merits?

Episode Three Point One: Terra Incognita

We've got a new band to listen to, with French heavy metal giants Gojira the next band to be examined under the Unshuffled microscope. As always, we kick off with the debut album. Largely overlooked at the time of release, Terra Incognita seems to have been overshadowed by their later albums. Has it been unfairly treated?

Episode Two Point Two: Eschatology

It's an ever changing world in which we live in, but don't let that make you give in and cry - just listen to psychedelic doom instead. In this episode we discuss Eschatology, the second album from Pale Grey Lore, and their first on the amazing Small Stone label.

Episode Two Point One: Pale Grey Lore S/T

Be a part of history as we move onto our second band - the psychedelic doom of Pale Grey Lore. In this episode we discuss their self-titled debut, which you should first check out on Bandcamp, then join us as we break it down track-by-track here. Is it really psychedelic? Is it really doom? Is it any good? Listen and find out...

Episode Two Point Zero: We Choose Our Second (and Third!) Bands

With the Atomic Bitchwax now behind us, we move on to pick the second band to get the album-by-album, track-by-track Unshuffled treatment. We ended up succeeding not only in choosing a great next band, but also the one after that! Tune in and see who we chose and why, and also to hear about the also-rans.

Episode One Point Seven: Force Field

We predicted that Force Field would be a sequel to Gravitron, and we were right. The question is, is it more like 'The Godfather II' or 'Speed 2'? Seven full-length albums in, are we still digging this band, or has Bitchwax Fatigue got the better of us? Listen and find out.

Episode One Point Six: Gravitron

We've got a faster, heavier Bitchwax album to contend with here, as the band flex their muscle and bring a new level of focus and intensity to their songs. Has this shift been a success, or left us yearning for a return to their retro roots? All the answers lie within...

Episode One Point Five: The Local Fuzz

"Fifty riffs in forty minutes" is the pitch for this audacious, one track, vocal-free slab of fuzz rock madness. The Atomic Bitchwax attempted something remarkable on 2011's The Local Fuzz. Listen to this episode to hear Scott and Matt discuss whether they managed to pull it off.
