Grab your studded jackets and get ready for another round of unfiltered chaos with Andrew Culture and David Jago on *Beat Motel*. This week, the lads are tearing into bands whose sound just doesn’t match their image. From the letdown of Marilyn Manson’s early albums to the baffling presence of Ghost t-shirts at metal gigs, no band is safe from their sharp, witty analysis.

Andrew dishes out some surprises as he explores black metal bands that look nothing like you’d expect. Meanwhile, Jago goes on a proper rant about The Killers – apparently the band with the best name in the history of music, but who wasted it on sugary Vegas pop. You can feel the fury coming through the mic!

Expect name-drops from Faith No More to John Coltrane, with a good dollop of British humour and punk attitude keeping things lively. There’s even a bit of introspection as the lads discuss how knowing too much about a band can sometimes ruin the magic – Charlatans, we’re looking at you!

It’s witty, chaotic, and as loud as ever—grab a pint, crank up the volume, and get ready for another wild ride with *Beat Motel*.
