Ep. 247: Pulling The Plug – Acoustic Rock n’ Punk n’ Metal 3

Подробнее о видео

In the 80s, the idea of special acoustic or unplugged albums and shows became a new medium that continues to today. Most think that Mtv started the movement in 1989 with their series called “unplugged”, however, most rock bands were playing acoustic renditions of their songs on radio when they would do in-town promotions long before then. This week we are celebrating bands that can re-imagine their songs with acoustic instruments and still rock! We are pulling the plug… and gasping for air guitars!


What’s this InObscuria thing? We’re a podcast that exhumes obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal and puts them in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. Mtv started a series in 1989 called “unplugged”, and almost every mainstream relevant act started producing acoustic albums or versions of their songs. This week we listen to some artist that you may have never considered as having acoustic interpretations of their songs.


Songs this week include:

1. The Struts – “Fallin’ With Me” from Unplugged At EastWest - EP (2023)
2. Kingdom Come – “Janine” from Live & Unplugged (1998)
3. Helloween – “Future World” from Unarmed (2009) 
4. Wednesday 13 – “Scary Song” from Undead Unplugged (2014)
5. Corey Taylor – “Lunatic Fringe” from CMFB… Sides (2022)
6. Courage My Love – “For Now” from For Now (Acoustic Sessions) (2012)
7. MSG – “Lights Out” from Unplugged Live (1993)
