IoMP 94: Metal on a Desert Island—What Album Keeps You Sane?
If you were stranded on a desert island with only one metal album to keep your sanity, what would you bring?
Odd question considering the obvious need for food, water, and basic survival skills. But that’s the question Collin and Tom face—literally—after their impromptu cruise ends in a shipwreck. With nothing but sand, coconuts, and two records, the guys dig into their “Desert Island Metal” picks: The Retinal Circus by Devin Townsend and Demons & Wizards self-titled debut.
They explore what makes each record special—from Devin’s theatrical brilliance and Steve Vai’s narration to the layered choirs and crushing riffs of Hansi Kürsch and Jon Schaffer. Expect humor, chaos, and some solid album talk as the duo debates survival priorities…
Hit play and escape to an island where the only thing heavier than the humidity is the riffs.
