Episode 70: Ghost - Skeletá
Ghost is one of those rare modern rock bands that has increased in popularity over the last few years, selling out stadiums and frequently debuting in the upper realm of the album charts. Not a mean feat as that is usually relegated to pop acts, with rock having become a thing of the past. With their faux occult stylings and extensive comic lore, Ghost have managed to gain fans of all ages despite heavy gatekeeping in the metal community. 2022's Impera truly broke them into the mainstream, and Skeletá, released in 2025, is keeping them there. However, the more pop they become, the less leader Tobias Forge seems to be delving into his own creativity.

Episode 69: Creedence Clearwater Revival - Pendulum
After five albums within the span of two and a half years Creedence Clearwater Revival was starting to have some issues. John Fogerty was the songwriter, lead guitarist, lead singer and producer for all of their material, and by Pendulum, their second album for 1970, that was wearing him down. Combine that with the rest of the band getting jealous of his frontman status and the cracks began to show.

Episode 68: John Fogerty - Eye of the Zombie
After a decade absent John Fogerty returned to the spotlight with the hit album Centerfield in 1985, only to be promptly sued by his old label boss Saul Zaentz for plagiarizing himself. Fogerty won, but legal costs and the desire to remain in the spotlight meant a second album had to come out fast. That album was 1986's Eye of the Zombie, which saw Fogerty embracing the synths and rum machines of the mid-1980s with predictably disappointing results.
