Podcast #150: Retro

Nothin' feels better than slippin' into an old pair of jeans, be it your bell bottoms from the 70s or your skinny jeans from the 80s. As with most forms of art, music usually recycles itself in some way, shape, or form every couple of decades or so.  The latest trend in hard rock/heavy metal is the revival of 70’s doom rock a la Black Sabbath.  Is this good for music fans, or does it fall into the "been there, done that" category?  Join Genghis and Ragman as they dig deep into the retro craze and see what they have to say about it.  Good or bad?  Tune in to find out!

Great show topic and some nice sounding bands. I have been into this 70's trend of late. A band you missed that I love are called Night Flight Orchestra: Internal Affairs.
