Didn't Go Platinum
Podcast Description
Didn't Go Platinum is the podcast that looks at the unloved and the overlooked from the world of heavy metal. We ignore the classics and instead, focus on the lesser-discussed gems. Whether it's a rarely mentioned entry from giants like Iron Maiden, or a relatively obscure British thrash band's forgotten comeback, we're interested. Where other metal podcasts look at Rust In Peace, Painkiller and Number Of The Beast, we'd rather discuss Five Serpents' Teeth and Dance Of Death.

It’s a special crossover episode is what it is! Didn’t Go Platinum host Tim Bolitho-Jones is joined by Jimi and Dazz from the Bangers & Mosh podcast to talk about couple of their favourite albums that nobody else seems to like.
We take a look at Slither, the controversial fourth record from metalcore legends Earth Crisis, and Check Your People, an underrated gem from rap-metal heroes Downset. Both of these albums come from an interesting period in heavy music history, and examine why these two bands were unfairly maligned. And in honour of the sadly-absent Defa, we also take a brief look at his choice; SYL by Strapping Young Lad. Join us!
