This week on the Roach Koach Podcast we talk about a listener recommendation, Addictions by Substance D. Before digging into that one, Lorin and Jenny get real about their experience at the Static-X/Devildriver show. Emotions are expressed! Cars are parallel parked! (Also lovely Rose Marie provides some background screams). Then it’s time for Substance D. Does this album contain the nu-metal “Welcome To the Jungle”? Is Jenny the right choice to play Batman? Are these lyrics too intense for a casual listener? Most important, does Substance D deserve entry in the Nu-Metal Canon? Listen and find out.

This week on Roach Koach it’s round 3 with the boys in Static-X and their album, Shadow Zone.

Also, a preview of next month’s Producer Spotlight on Ross Robinson, Earth Crisis feedback in Who’s Tweeting, and a quick shout out to the other podcasts doing the damn thing in Who’s Podcasting.

Topics discussed: Did this band miss their shot at the big time? Is it possible to decode the Robert Christgau rating system? Can an album be too good? What is "Love Dump" about? What is it mean to have a "reverse Staind problem"? Also another edition of Who's Tweeting?, a brief detour with Ministry and nursery rhymes, and of course, debating whether Static-X deserve a spot in the Nu-Metal Canon.
