#MoodyPensiveHostility is volume 109 of MPH: Music Philanthropy and History in the Mosh Pit Hell of Metal Punk and Hardcore on Cygnus Radio. Bringing some angst to your mosh with some proto Nu-Metal flair, Friday 18 April 2025 beginning 22:00 US-EDT (10pm nyc), from the Isle of Misfit toys, with the doormouse, dmf.
Tune in to #MoodyPensiveHostility as we listen to some of the sounds that were the run up to the Nu-Metal craze in the 90s with classic cranial crushers from Faith No More, Voivoid, Sam Black Church, 24-7 Spyz, Mordred, Tourniquet, Jane’s Addiction, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Living Colour, Infectious Grooves, Rage Against the Machine, Biohazard, Helmet, Quicksand, Tad, Godflesh, Life of Agony and more before we touch briefly on the first-wavers KoRn, the Deftones, Orange 9mm, Stuck Mojo, Incubus, etc.
During the show we’ll take some time to understand one of the most maligned genres in metal by dissecting where some of the controversial crooning came from. Then, we’ll discuss AIM Youth Metal Health, aimymh.org/, and the work they do for teens as a way to confront some of the cliches from the moody pensive hostility years.
