Every Album Ever with Mike Mansour

Today we're discussing the debut album by English post-punk band Killing Joke. Formed by Jaz Coleman, Paul Ferguson, Geordie Walker, and Youth, Killing Joke this early on were not only leagues above their peers in terms of technical skill, but in absolute chaos. Integral to the band's formation is their use of magic, and we're diving into all of it. This is the first episode in our Killing Joke discography series.

Today we're discussing every album by legendary metal band Mastodon. Formed by Troy Sanders, Brent Hinds, Bill Kelliher, and Brann Dailor, Mastodon is one of the most creative and constantly evolving metal bands of all time. Albums like Leviathan and Crack the Skye blended incredible technicality, bizarre and unique melodies, as well as complex story concepts. Their most recent album, Marrow Deep, is the band's first album without Brent, following his departure and subsequent death in 2025. Despite the loss, Mastodon continues to push and evolve.

Today we're breaking down every album by Bitch Magnet, one of the most underrated post-hardcore bands of all time. Made up of core members Sooyoung Park, Jon Fine, and Orestes Morfin, Bitch Magnet didn't make a huge splash during their initial run in the late 80s/early 90s. But a successful reunion in 2011 reminded the world of just how ahead of their time they were. This is an essential band for any post-hardcore fan and one of the most underrated bands we've covered on this channel.

Today we're discussing Live at the Witch Trials, the first album by legendary post-punk band The Fall. Before The Fall became completely run by vocalist and founding member Mark E.

Today we're discussing The Modern Dance and Dub Housing by post-punk pioneers Pere Ubu.

Today we're discussing every album by Swervedriver. Led by sole consistent members Adam Franklin and Jimmy Hartridge, Swervedriver is often lumped in with other shoegaze bands of the time, but has an identity entirely their own. Heavy, catchy, emotional, and expertly written.

Today we're discussing every album by British punk band Rudimentary Peni. While technically considered anarcho punk, RP was far stranger and musically unpredictable--a direction spearheaded by singer/guitarist Nick Blinko. Blinko also produces the band's album art, giving them a brilliant and inimitable signature. While Peni's music has gotten far less adventurous in recent years, their mark as one of the most unique bands of all time remains.

Today we're discussing Milo Goes to College by the Descendents. Widely considered one of the most influential pop punk albums ever made, Milo Goes to College blends hardcore punk with strong melodies and at times heartfelt lyrics. Driven by drummer Bill Stevenson and singer Milo Aukerman, Descendents are largely responsible for what we now consider pop punk

Today we're discussing Warrior on the Edge of Time by pioneering space rock band Hawkwind. Warrior on the Edge of Time is the band's fifth album and their last with Lemmy Kilmister, who went on to form Motörhead after his firing. The events that led up to this, however, are a roller coaster of psychedelics, mayhem, and alleged backstabbing.

Today we're dissecting Metal Box/Second Edition by Public Image Limited (or PiL for short). Formed by John Lydon (formerly Johnny Rotten) directly after leaving the Sex Pistols, PiL is an ever-changing beast of a band that continued to push the boundaries of rock music in strange and unexpected ways.

Today I'm breaking down every album by Six Finger Satellite. Formed in Providence, RI in 1988, Six Finger Satellite were an insane noise rock band unlike any other.

Today we're discussing Dinosaur Jr's first album, You're Living All Over Me. Released in 1987 on SST records, You're Living All Over Me is one of the most beloved rock albums of all-time and largely responsible for the formation of alt rock, indie, and shoegaze. Here, J Mascis, Lou Barlow, and Murph crafted some of the most original and impassioned rock, with no shortage of hooks, as well as ear-piercing chaos.

I listened to every album by Laughing Hyenas. Formed in Ann Arbor, Michigan by John Brannon (of hardcore punk band Negative Approach) and Larissa Strickland (of L-Seven) in 1984, Laughing Hyenas were a noise rock band who fused elements of garage rock, punk, blues, and Birthday Party insanity. Their struggles with heroin led to chaos as the years went on, including Brannon vomiting on Drew Barrymore right before a show.

Hard Times (1995)

We interviewed Paul Leary, guitarist and founding member of the Butthole Surfers, and he walked us through each of their albums, one-by-one. Made up of core members Paul Leary, Gibby Haynes, and King Coffey, the Butthole Surfers are one of the most beloved and extraordinarily weird bands in history. But after some major-label drama in the early 00s, they are finally releasing the original version of their final album as it was intended by the band (After the Astronaut, out June 26).

I listened to the self-titled debut album by feedtime. Originally formed in 1979, feedtime was a noise rock band from Sydney, Australia who is credited with helping to create grunge music. Kurt Cobain, as well as Mark Arm and Steve Turner of Mudhoney have each cited feedtime as being influences to their sound.
