Sometimes you just have to turn that music up loud. Loud enough that you just might...Wake The Dead. And that's what Brad and Josh have for you on this week's episode of the Two Decades Too Late podcast. The 2005 album from Comeback Kid. The title track on this bad boy is iconic and still can bring a group of millennials running from miles away. Did you love it in 2005? Is there any reason to think this time is gonna be d...

You may have been Mezmerized by our last episode, but now it's time to be Hypnotize(d). That's right, we've got the second release from System of a Down on this week's episode of the Two Decades Too Late podcast. Brad and Josh had relatively good things to say about the first album. Does the second hold up?

That's right, gang. It's time for another jam session! Brad and Josh are taking on four albums in blazing fashion. Or, as close to it as we can manage with half a dozen pop culture references and inside jokes. On this week's episode of the Two Decades Too Late podcast we've got albums from Light This City, A Dozen Furies, The Knife Trade, and Beneath the Massacre. Tune is for so deep cuts from 2005.

On this week's episode of the Two Decades Too Late podcast, Brad and Josh listen to blast beats, and lots of them. Too many? Who's to say? Regardless, we're taking on the 2005 album, I, Monarch from Hate Eternal. It's a rad as hell band name with some rad as hell dudes. Is the album rad as hell twenty years later? We'll give you our take if you tune in.

You ever just look in the mirror and ask yourself, "Are you dead yet?" No? Well, it happened to the singer of this week's band. This week on the Two Decades Too Late podcast, we're soul-searching the 2005 album, Are You Dead Yet? from Children of Bodom. Bodom was a big deal in Brad and Josh's early years. Does this album hit the spot? Tune in and find out.

This week on the Two Decades Too Late podcast, we have the 2005 album, Ascendancy from Trivium. This is a phenomenal, pivotal album from the early 2000's, right? Or is it? Some people certainly think so. Do Brad and Josh agree? Tune in to find out if this album has stood the test of time. Or, if it was ever actually good to begin with!

This week, things are getting a little...progressive. No, not that way. We're talking prog rock/metal. And as such, I was genuinely concerned I would not be able to fit the entire album title in the episode name. Anyone ever heard of character limits?! This week on the Two Decades Too Late podcast, Brad and Josh are tackling the Coheed and Cambria album, Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume One: From Fear Through the ...

Oral hygiene is the key to longevity and vitality. Your dentist knows it, you know it, hell, even demons know it. That's obvious from the cover art on this week's album. And that album would be Attera Totus Sanctus, or "destroy all the holy," to you laity. That's right, on this week's episode of the Two Decades Too Late podcast, Brad and Josh are taking a trip to the underworld for Dark Funeral's ...

This week on the Two Decades Too Late podcast, Brad and Josh are diving into what may be a lesser known album. It's Terminate Damnation, the debut album from Becoming The Archetype. Landing solidly in the Christian metal scene, this was definitely an album that was within the gravitational pull of music we were listening to in 2005. How does it stack up twenty years later? Tune in and find out.

Somebody once said, "I got a fever, and the only prescription is more cowbell." Well, no cowbell here, but possibly an equal or greater amount of spprrrrrrat ta ting ting, sppprrrrrrat ta ting ting.

Do you ever just wake up to white walls and endless halls? With an emptiness that echoes through it all? Well if so, just sit back in your bed with your mind medicated. That's the state of things midway through this week's episode of the Two Decades Too Late podcast. Brad and Josh are on the journey with The Patient in the 2005 release, Trainwreck, from Canadian band Boys Night Out. And boy is trainwreck an apt title. The...

On this week's episode of the Two Decades Too Late podcast, we're listening not once, not twice, but Thrice! That's right, we've got the 2005 album Vheissu. If you were into Thrice in 2005, you probably know the deal. Coming off the heals of SOTY, there were lots of comparisons made. Let's dive in and see what there is to love about this thing.

We've got it! And we're determined to bring it to you! A story so good, you might say....enough of that. This week on the Two Decades Too Late podcast, we're taking a listen to In the Wake of Determination from Story of the Year. A microcosm of life in 2005 for Brad and Josh. Will it stand the test of time? Drop the tailgate and let's find out.

Clients. Am I right? I've got them, you've got them, and we're all somebody else's client. That, among other things, is what this week's episode of the Two Decades Too Late podcast is all about. The Clients album from The Red Chord is a brutal and punishing album. Brad's always had a soft spot for this album. Josh? Not so much. Tune in and find out if Josh is going to see the error of his ways, or if t...

This week's episode of the Two Decades Too Late podcast is about another podcast that looks exactly like ours! Not really, but it is in fact, Doppelganger from Washington state band, The Fall of Troy. This one played ad nauseum for Josh and Brad in 2005. Does this tangled mess stand the test of time? Or will you find this album floating down by the docks, just on top of the rocks? Tune in and find out!

Meet us behind Ye Ole' Slaughterhouse for this one. This week, Brad and Josh are taking a listen to The Archaic Abattoir from Aborted. If there's two things I love from Belgium, honestly it's probably chocolate and waffles. But Aborted is definitely up there! And this album is a heavy hitter. There's a plethora of words to look up, and some strong opinions on vocal panning. Tune in to this week's episode of...

Are you ready to put the "R" in fun? This week on the Two Decades Too Late podcast, we have The Bravery....by...The Bravery! You might be saying to yourself, "the who?!" No, that's a different band. These guys were huge in the UK in 2005 (yeah, that's The Who). Find out what Brad and Josh think about what's going on in this album. Lots of keys and lots of synth (still sounds a lot like The Who).
