This week we’re mixing things up. Mike is in Berlin, Germany and decided to meet up with our history guy, Tom Osman, to go back into the EAE archives and debate some of our past picks. The Black Flag, Jane’s Addiction, Soundgarden, Swans, Husker Du, and Celtic Frost episodes, to be exact. From each of those episodes, Tom picked two albums to debate with Mike. Whose side are you on?

This week we’re tackling Switzerland’s very own Celtic Frost. To say this band is abrasive is a viking-sized understatement. However, their contribution to the creation of extreme metal is undeniable, regardless of whether or not you might actually enjoy their music. Important band in heavy metal’s history. But be warned, some of their stuff gets extremely weird. Cool, heavy, and weird.
Closing track: “A Dying God Coming Into Human Flesh” from Monotheist (2006)
