We don't go to 11 here, but we come close.  This week were looking back at the glorious mockumentary Spinal Tap from 1984.  One of the greatest rock movies ever made was never really appreciated in its time (just like us). We all reveled in the pure, unadulterated hedonism of metal in the 80s and barely lived to tell the tale.  That's why our music was so good, it could potentially kill us.  But hey, we're sure Fallout Boy is dangerous nowadays too.

Drunk on nostalgia, were saving the best to the end with a wrap of of our favorite metal bands of all time.  Spoiler alert: there's not a single band on here formed after 1984, just like it should be.
