Episode 9: From Rome To Rage feat, Plum, RATM, Skindred, Stuck Mojo, Hyro The Hero, SOAD.

We're celebrating a massive milestone on The Backstage Guru-thanks to your support, we are officially Goodpods' #4 Top Alternative Podcast of the Month! To mark the occasion, we’re pulling back the curtain on nearly thirty minutes of music that refuses to play by the rules. In this session, we feature the long-awaited creative reset from the returning #Plum, exploring their meditation on civilisational inertia. We also have the brand-new single "This Is The Sound" from Welsh legends Skindred, taken from their upcoming ninth album You Got This. The journey continues with the heavy rap-metal roots of Stuck Mojo, the revolutionary fire of Rage Against the Machine, and a high-energy collaboration between Hyro The Hero and Myles Kennedy. We cap everything off with the chaotic mastery of System of a Down. Six tracks,  no fillers. Keep it loud, and keep it real. Tracklist: Plum – "How The West Was Lost" Skindred – "This Is The Sound" (from the upcoming album You Got This) Stuck Mojo – "(Here Comes) The Monster" Rage Against the Machine – "Know Your Enemy" (feat. Maynard James Keenan) Hyro The Hero – "Never Back Down" (feat. Myles Kennedy) System of a Down – "Toxicity"Submit your comments and request in the Podomatic comments section, or via our socials at The Rock Authority on X and Instagram!

Episode 8: Francis Bucholz and The Scorpions’ Sonic Shadow

The Sound That Launched a Thousand Riffs In Episode 8, The Backstage Guru does a lightning sweep of the Scorpions' golden era. We aren't just talking history; we're talking about a sonic contagion. We’re looking at how the Scorpions' massive production and Francis Bucholz’sdriving bass lines provided the sonic ammunition for the bands that followed. We're connecting the dots between the Scorpions' peak and the tracks they inspired: The Scorpions Standard: Revisiting the power of "Bad Boys Running Wild" and "No One Like You." The Ripple Effect: How that specific German precision filtered into the swagger of Ratt’s "Lack of Communication." The Metal Evolution: The DNA transfer from 80s arena rock to the technical precision of Megadeth’s "Trust." The Modern Torchbearers: How Ghost captures that vintage Bucholz-era spirit in "Satanised." It’s a fast-paced look at a legacy of power. If you like your rock loud and your bass lines locked in, this is the episode for you.

Episode 7: Passive as Rebellion featuring HIMALAYAS | Zoé | Sonic Youth & more!

Last week we leaned into the heavier end of the spectrum. Before that, things stretched out and got experimental. This week, the sound shifts again, quieter in places, stranger in others, but always connected. Episode 7 of The Backstage Guru is about movement, curiosity, and not being afraid to follow where the music leads. From Dry Cleaning’s deadpan tension to Sonic Youth’s passive rebellion, through modern rock, cosmic psychedelia, and intimate songwriting, this episode pulls back the curtain one record at a time. No fixed genre. No comfort zones. Just a thread that runs underneath it all. Put the headphones on, lean in, and trust the turn. The soundtrack under the intro comes from Crymwav’s “Speak No Evil”, out now across all platforms - another curtain pulled back. Catch them on their UK tour in March 2026.

Episode 6: Harder Rock, No Shortcuts

Episode 6 of The Backstage Guru leans back into heavier territory, continuing the idea of pulling the curtain back on music that stands on craft, conviction, and identity rather than hype. Following on from the response to earlier episodes particularly Episode 2, this edition revisits the idea of low-hanging fruit in the modern music business, and the difference between content-driven exposure and genuine artist development. Not as an accusation, but as a distinction worth making. This week’s selections span established names and emerging artists, all connected by intent rather than trend. Some tracks are brand new, others are pulled back into the light because they’re simply too good to be ignored. Release dates aren’t the point, songs are. Featured in this episode Megadeth – The Tipping Point (from the forthcoming album, due 23 January) Black Label Society – Engines Of Demolition ACES – Tornado (self-titled album out now) Vern Daysel & The Burning Breeze – New Game Matney – All Fired Up (from The Redneck and the Redman) Seether – Dangerous (from Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum) As always, The Backstage Guru is about conversation as much as curation. If you’re listening on Podomatic, leave your thoughts in the comments section below the episode. You can also get in touch on X and Instagram, and if you’ve got music you think belongs here, feel free to send it in — if it fits, it’ll get some daylight. Pulling the curtain back, one record at a time.

Episode 5: The Songs That Stay

The Backstage Guru - Episode 5: The Songs That Stay Some songs grab your attention instantly - and disappear just as fast. Others take their time, creep up on you, and stay with you long after the track ends. In Episode 5 of The Backstage Guru, I kept coming back to the same handful of songs. I wasn’t planning a theme, but what emerged was a collection connected by mood, space, and patience — music that trusts the listener rather than rushing them. From Ren’s raw honesty to the restrained intimacy of Arctic Monkeys, the atmospheric pull of The Neighbourhood, the world-building of Tame Impala, the studio craftsmanship of Jeff Lynne and ELO, and the cinematic presence of Lana Del Rey, this episode explores how different artists - across eras and styles - create music that lingers. The Backstage Guru is where we talk about music that earns your time. IF YOU'DE LIKE TO GET IN TOUCH we're on X and Instagram, or just leave your comments in the section below.
