029 King Diamond - The Spider's Lullabye (1995)
Listen now
Description
King Diamond was already a metal legend when he put out the semi-conceptual The Spider's Lullabye in 1995. It's almost an afterthought for King D - he considered it forgettable and difficult to make. For Boogie Chitz, The Spider's Lulz is a classic and contains some of the best 1990's dance beats this side of La Bouche - despite being a thematic European heavy metal record.

Seems like by 1970 Steppenwolf were already becoming a two-hit relic of the cultural past. Nonsense. Steppenwolf 7, which is technically their fifth album, is a furious nine-track assault that sounds like cocaine psychosis set to boogie rock. Love it.

A neck-to-nuts banger of a synth album found in a genre mostly celebrated via individual songs and videos rather than LPs. Upstairs at Eric's contains by my count three 'oh yeah I know that song' songs that are probably recognizable to the greater American public.
