This week, we, uh, whuh? Oh yeah, right! We look down into the haze of 50 years of metal songs about weed, pot, and marijuana, tracing the history from illegal defiance and paranoia to today’s giggly legalization-era party tracks and parodies. Hit after hit by Sleep, May Blitz, Weedeater, Bongzilla, Down, Acid Witch, Cannabis Corpse, Six Feet Under, and more. Sort your seeds–and know your Roots!
Let some books open the metal and hardcore gateways to your soul already, courtesy of your heavy spiritual advisors at BAZILLION POINTS BOOKS
