As we reflect on another incredible year of Dig Me Out, we want to express our deepest gratitude to each of you who have subscribed to our podcasts. Your enthusiasm for 80s metal and 90s rock keeps the spirit of these genres alive. If you haven’t yet, make sure to subscribe to our podcasts to stay updated with every riff, melody, and deep dive.
From Classics to Lost Gems
Thanks to your incredible support, Dig Me Out has delivered a year packed with episodes that span iconic records and unsung heroes. Some of our most popular episodes this year from the 80s Metal Podcast include deep dives into Tesla’s Mechanical Resonance, exploring the band’s melodic mastery and raw energy, and Faster Pussycat’s self-titled album, where we celebrated their blend of gritty glam and rock attitude. We also revisited Badlands’ Badlands, showcasing the powerful vocals of Ray Gillen and Jake E. Lee’s dynamic guitar work, and Bulletboys’ Bulletboys, which demonstrated the vibrant edge of late 80s metal.
On the 90s Rock Podcast, listeners loved our exploration of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds’ Let Love In, a poetic masterpiece of gothic and alternative rock, and Blind Guardian’s Nightfall in Middle-Earth, a symphonic power metal epic inspired by Tolkien’s The Silmarillion. Other standout episodes included Smashing Pumpkins’ Gish, a cornerstone of 90s alternative rock, and Unbelievable Truth’s Almost Here, which brought a deeper appreciation of understated, introspective songwriting.
Whether exploring household names or cult favorites, these episodes highlight the range and depth your support allows us to explore.
