This episode we take a look at the band nobody in the UK seemed to give two you-know-what’s about, Bush and their debut album Sixteen Stone.

E94 - POWER BALLADS Top 30 (Bon Jovi, Poison, Cher, Aerosmith, Tina Turner & MORE) 2:19:01

2M ago2:19:01

2:19:01

The Power Ballad. Loved by many (including our co-host on this ep) but labelled by others as a product of a bygone era. In the vast majority of cases these songs are characterised by emotional and heartfelt lyrics, powerful vocals, and a melodic and dramatic instrumental arrangement. Typically, power ballads feature a slow tempo, allowing the singe…

1:26:49

“Oh yeah” you may say, “I remember Travis, always asking why it was raining, telling us to turn/sing etc”. Well on this episode we focus on the band’s first album, released in late 1997 and spawning 4 top 40 singles, even if you didn’t realise at the time. We’ve mentioned before on the pod that Travis, alongside The Verve (and Embrace lol) were som…

Ning is back to takeover the Personal Jukebox alongside his JifnotCif brethren as they drill down the album ‘Juice’ by Send No Flowers.This was the 1996 debut & ended up as the only album put out by the British five-piece who really distilled their sound on this effort but information on the net in scarce.

E92 - Republica - Republica 1:58:01

3M ago1:58:01

Ok, this episode is partly due to a listener suggestion following Sex Neil’s love of a big beat & a female vocal so this time we head into the self-titled debut album from Republica. Another record released in that sweet mid-to-late 90s slot that we love here on the Personal Jukebox. Surely EVERYBODY knows the twin big hits from this one but you ev…

Load is the sixth studio album by our old mates Metallica. Released in 1996, this album marked a significant departure from the band's thrash roots, erring way into hard rock, alternative and blues rock territory.

5M ago2:24:30

2:24:30

We blast off into 2024 with a killer episode focused around the Filthy 15. These are 15 songs that in 1985 were put forward in the US by the PMRC (The Parents Music Resource Centre, a collection set up initially by wives of ‘high-up’ folk in the United States) as the most objectionable and also featured the worst content imaginable to the group’s m…

For the final time this year we step into the Personal Jukebox to discuss The Fat Of The Land by The Prodigy.This album was released in summer 1997 but was preceded by 12 months of singles, hype, publicity (both positive and negative) and ballyhoo enabling The Prodigy to become one of the biggest acts around at the time. We discuss all aspects of t…

Next up to be dissected inside the Personal Jukebox is Tragic Kingdom by No Doubt. With this record, first released in 1995 but not gaining mega popularity until early ‘97, No Doubt hit the big time. Blending ska, pop and punk with Gwen Stefani’s ‘one of the guys’ allure wrote the guys their ticket to a diamond selling disc. Question is… is the alb…

E83 - Van Halen -1984 1:19:24

9M ago1:19:24

1:19:24

On this episode we cover 1984 by Van Halen. Released as the band’s sixth album, this became a multi seller in their native US shipping over 10 million to be certified diamond. It gave the band their only No.1 on the Billboard chart (guess what that was..) but also signified the end of Diamond Dave Lee Roth’s tenure working with Van Halens Eddie & A…

Super Neil returns with Simon to talk all things Limp Bizkit & their 4th album Results May Vary.

1:47:09

Pearl Jam released their debut album in summer 1991 and immediately were flung into the burgeoning alternative/grunge music tidal wave even though on this album they don’t really bear the hallmarks of the Grunge ‘sound’. This is no ‘Grunge’ record. Carried on the collective back of stateside mega-hits Even Flow, Jeremy & Alive, Ten eventually outso…

Simon & Neil risk any remaining shred of credibility by reviewing Avril Lavigne’s 2002 album Let Go. Released at the time of Pop-Punk saturation & armed with a trio of radio-friendly big hitters, Avril’s debut was seen for many as an attempt by record company bosses to cash in on the scene by creating a girl punker to peddle to the younger female d…
