The Decline and Fall of Glam Metal in the 1990s

Wherein Eric and special guest co-host Ross explore the decline and fall of the most beloved musical genre of their shared misspent youth, glam metal, looking in on the life, times, and repertoire of bands including Slaughter, Poison, Ratt, Warrant, Skid Row, Kiss, Mötley Crüe and many, many more as the 90's death-marched all of them slowly but surely towards (a temporary!) cultural irrelevance.

Opening poem excerpted from "A Dream Within a Dream" by Edgar Allan Poe (1849)
