A podcast where four musicians give a (mostly) unbiased listen to the most hated records of all time to see if there isn't anything worthwhile to them after all.
Episode 37 "Tyler Perry's Madea's A Night in the Ruts" (A Night in the Ruts by Aerosmith)
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. Actually...it was just the worst of times. Hard drugs and hard livin had finally caught up to Aerosmith and the result was hard to hear. The making of this album was so tense that Joe Perry quit the band before the album was finished. But was Joe being too harsh on a mellow that had thoroughly charred or did have the good sense to jump ship before the whole thing capsized? Listen along as we try to find out!

Episode 36 "Peanut Butter Puddin' Pleasure Robotics" (Evil Urges by My Morning Jacket)
Just how sexy are those grain silos, anyway? On this episode we dive into an album Dan got four songs into and turned off, vowing never to return. But now he has his three Redemption Song co-hosts to help him make sense of it all. Or...try. You may be ahem HIGHLY SUSPICIOS of the results, but it's high time we give this album a fair shake. Plenty of room in the grain silo. Hop on in!

Episode 35 "Burgermeister of Purgatory" (Indie Cindy by The Pixies)
Is it better to burn out or fade away? What to do if you are a legendary 80's college radio band who has been touring on their back catalog for years? Dare you venture into the realm of new music? It worked for some of your left of the dial compatriots (Dinosaur Jr, Camper Van Beethoven) but will it work for a band like The Pixies? Well...apparently not. Savaged by even the band's most ardent champions upon release, this album has been called so bad that it invalidated the entire Pixies reunion. But, come on. Is it really that bad?
