    Welcome to the 75th episode of the Rock Dungeon. This week sees the release of a lot of quality cds and the boys give you a rundown of what to expect and play you some new tracks from Linkin Park, Kamelot, Gracious Few, and Sum 41.

We have an awesome Trivia from Aaron supplied by our very own listener Greg and Wade gets independent with his Pimp and Mike flashes back to 1986 Canada. This episode has been clinically proven to be proportionally better with each bottle of beer consumed prior to listening.

    Alright I know I wasn't that enthusiastic about Khepi Ghoulie or the other tune I described as staight 50's rockabilly, sorry I forgot the name of that band (not a good sign I know), but Wade you hit a home run in my book with Haunted George. Liked it so much I've already ordered a CD by them. Unlike the others (no offense) this band brought some attitude to the Rockabilly world. On the other end of the spectrum, I thought Mike nailed the unsung heroes topic although to be honest, as songs go, I liked Wades picks much better, but I'm sure that comes as no surprise to anyone. Mike, got to say the Gracious Few tune was great to hear, Live was definitely one of my favorite bands from the 90's and that tune brought me right back. Might have to check into them.

    Feel free to tear me a new one for this pick but my unsung hero is going to have to be Meg White from the White Stripes. I know everyone (Including me) makes fun of her drumming but I really think she is just an important part of the White Stripes sound as Jack White. Yes he does all the heavy lifting but with any other drummer they just wouldn't be the same, or as edgy, or as good.

    And finally, this was only the second trivia quiz where I had the jump on both of you out of the gate, but of course I cheated on both of them having known the originator of the quiz. Of course, that is the only way I am ever going to beat you two since you are both so incredibly well educated in rock. I've got to take my victories however I can get them I guess. Glad to be in on the ground floor of your world conquest. It is awesome to hear that your show is making it's way across the entire globe, country by country. looking forward to the next one

    Awesome to hear from you and if Wade can ever pry himself away from work I know he would be excited about your liking of Haunted George, but have you bought any AFI yet Razz I really enjoyed the Gracious Few and it totally conjured the good 90s to me as I really enjoyed Candlebox. Well gotta get off to work. Thanks for posting you RAWK

    Wait, what? Operation Ivy doesn't have a female vocalist! Jesse Michaels is a dude. Wade, were you thinking of someone else, or did they have a female come in on some songs?

    Ummmmmm ... operation Ivy did have a female vocalist ..... thought that's what I said.... If I didn't, then I fucked up and I am SOOOO Sorry. Sometimes I think one thing and say something else, it occurs way to often these days.

    Uh, maybe we are talking about different OpIvy's -- mine has a male singer. And Lint. And Matt Freeman.

    I seriously am not aware of any female singer they ever had.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Ivy_(band)

    Matt was also in the Gr'ups, they had a female singer (and a male).

    Or maybe I'm going crazy and reality is but an illusion...

    Wait a second - you didn't describe them as Ska-Punk either... This isn't another Bad Religion incident is it?

    Time seams to play this cruel game with our minds, till it gets to the point when reality is no longer what we live but what we know, or at least what we believe we know. Ya know?
