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.

Didn't Go Platinum is going where owls don't know our name! Regular host Tim Bolitho-Jones is joined by the Heavy Metal Philosopher himself, Mr. Jon Barbas, to discuss The Work by Rivers Of Nihil.
This was the fourth album by the ground-breaking death metal band and one of Jon's favourite records. We take a deep dive into the themes it presents and its place in the band's history, as well as telling our own personal stories about work, life, prog music, and everything else.
The Work is loved by critics but divided the band's fanbase. Join us as we explore why it might be Rivers Of Nihil's masterpiece.
