It's the world's loudest podcast as hosts Steve Davies, Richard Napthine and Mark Norman take their collective 120 years of worship at the altar of golden era hard rock and heavy metal (1970-ish to 1996-ish), cut the ribbon on their newly-built Hard Rock Hall of Fame - and debate the albums that have earned their places in its gilded rooms.

With more than a half a century of episodes under their belts, the most surprising thing for the Sadmen was that they hadn't yet been given an episode theme that centred on the word 'metal'. That all changed for this episode as the Tico Torres Tombola of Topics & Themes finally did the decent thing and spat out the magic ball.
But with two thirds of the eligible Metallica releases already housed in the Hard Rock & Heavy Metal Hall of Fame, the field boasting the bleedin' obvious had narrowed considerably.
What we got instead were three releases that all hit the shelves of Our Price, Andy's Records and Shades (among thousands of others) within 18 months of one another.
Mark kicks off proceedings with You Can't Have It All ... Or Can You? - the debut album from Leicester's Chrome Molly, who were at vanguard of NWOBHM's post-'84 Second Invasion.
Richard returned from a voyage of discovery with Metalized from Canadian power metal outfit Sword - an album he thought neither of his co-hosts would know, only to discover the band had featured prominently on a mixtape that Mark had given Steve back in late 1986.
And while Steve didn't quite go for the bleedin' obvious, it was close enough as he rocked up to the recording with a dog-eared copy of Metal Church's The Dark under one arm.
