30 Years of Metal Part 3

1990.

30 YEARS AGO.

3 DECADES OF METAL!!!!!

On this episode we conclude our 3 part series on 1990: 30 Years of Metal, starting with the O’s.

Check out part 1 and part 2 of our 1990 Metal Time Tunnel

We went down the rabbit hole on a few topics and reminisced about some old show stories and other assorted flashbackery that activated the METAL NERDERY TIME TUNNEL and sent us back to our high school dimension.

It’s been determined that for Generation X’ers, the 90’s was essentially OUR 70’s; especially as it relates to metal!!

Each decade, metal continues to get bigger and more badass, growing in power and intensity and evolving forward into realms of darkness and heaviness the likes of which should shake the very foundations of this world! Dare I say it: BALLTASTICALLY metal!!!

Like with an extra infusion of balls: Super Scrotum Metal. (Okay, that’s kinda silly…).

And even new genres that, at the time, we didn’t really consider (e.g. #punmetal, #beachmetal), but all that to say, the 90’s showed a next level evolution of metal that our Almighty Riff God Tony Iommi and the host of Riff Lords who shred among us have blessed us with.

Don’t deny the power of…
