In which Beeso, the Doc and special guest Adamhfoto get into After Dark 101 course prerequisites, RUOK, unhappy endings, the rock revival revival, running out of good ideas, never Beeso, never bagpipes, bootleg Buena Vista, doing it for the #content, Muse's muse, hair metal family trees, Open Up And Say Ehh, diabetes, suspension of disbelief, arguing with scoreboards, lumpy sugar, Beeso talks to kids, tough times = great art, the horrors of the past, the world's worst Def Leppard cover band, cat updates from Phil Jamo, the oral history of Walk This Way, getting the skits and guests agreeing with other guests. This week's new albums were from Polish Club and the Hot 8 Brass Band. No points for guessing who picked that one. The classic: Hysteria by Def Leppard (the original, not this shitty Spotify cover.) No points for guessing who picked that one either. Title track: Pour Some Sugar On Me (In The Name Of Diabetes). Next week's albums: Future Islands, Alpha Wolf and Run-DMC (and we're) Tougher Than Leather. Elsewhere on Spotify: Our regular new + classic album review playlist and our 2017 After Dark Mixtape, as well as AD.100's 2017-to-date and 2015-16 best-ofs.
