METALLICA RIPPED OFF SANDMAN! Mustaine Exposes The Ultimate Theft (VIP)
Is Metallica’s biggest hit a total fraud? Dave Mustaine just reignited the war of the thrash titans with a shocking claim that "Enter Sandman" was ripped off from an obscure 80s band! Mainstream metal media wants you to worship the "Black Album," but are you actually listening to a high-priced cover? Neeley and Chris expose the riffs that sound a little too "borrowed" and dive into the bizarre world of "Titar"—the viral Metallica "performance" that you literally cannot unsee.

We’re back and we’re going filthy, kids. This week, we unpack the story of a 22-year-old who got “metal up her ass” the hard way. If you think that’s bad, wait until you see the guy calling his Pomeranian his “daughter” on the nightly news while wearing a COVID mask in a smoke-filled fire zone. It’s the most faggoty thing we’ve ever seen.
We also tackle:
David Lee Roth living in an alternate universe where “Alligator Pants” are cool.
Ozzy admitting he can’t walk and will only do “bits and pieces” for his final show.
Tesla’s Brian Wheat starting a new band with Tommy Skeo despite years of “hating” him.

Nazareth just pulled the ultimate Grinch move and fired their singer right before the holidays. No "future endeavors," just a cold-blooded "he's gone." Chris is dive-bombing into why this was so brutal and why Carl Sentence thinking he can pull off a solo tour is pure delusion. 😂🔥
