2023 Metal Robot Wrapped (w/Thrashers Paradise) | MRP #053
The Metal Robot Podcast (2024-01-22) In this episode we wrap up the 2023 season with Collin Sterling of Thrashers Paradise to talk about what we’ve been listening to the most this past year.
2023 for many has been a rollercoaster, including for both me and Collin. Though we couldn’t get around to a best of the year list ourselves, that doesn’t mean we’ve been avoiding the black hole of the metal scene. This was the year that saw lots of new and interesting bands popping up, many of which we never heard of until they blew up (*cough* Sleep Token *cough*), and fun projects that got us to question the use of A.I. in the music scene, such as loving the outcome with Boi What’s Plankton metal.
The year has been interesting for sure, but whether for the good or bad it’s a year that gave us at least something to talk about moving forward into 2024 (and hopefully not 2020 part 4).
