EPYSODE 86: It's All Meat by It's All Meat.

Guests: Band members Jed MacKay and Rick McKim.

Additional commentary by Uncle Herff.

This week we spin the self-titled debut from It’s All Meat, a 1970 release that blends heavy psychedelic rock with raw garage energy. Recorded in Canada and largely forgotten until collectors unearthed it decades later, the album is a thunderous one-off statement of early ’70s underground rock.

The fuzzy guitar riffs and pounding rhythms capture a band experimenting at the edge of psychedelic and hard rock. We break down standout tracks, explore the band’s creative approach, and highlight why this cult classic has become so sought after for collectors of rare psych‑garage recordings.

A fleeting but powerful glimpse into a band that burned bright and fast, this one remains a hidden gem of Canadian psychedelic hard rock.

I hope you dig It's All Meat as much as I do.

We started First Concert Memories, the monthly series from The Ugly American Werewolf in London Rock Podcast, we wanted to capture the passion of rock fans who were turned on (usually at a young age) by the power of a great live rock show. That passion comes from childhood and teenage fandom of bands that hit you in just the right spot in your heart, mind and time of your life. For our generation, that was Van Halen. The genius of Eddie Van Halen's guitar against the raw vocals of David Lee Roth catapulted the boys into superstardom as they were loved by hard rockers, guitar heads, MTV, adoring females, and record company execs. That's why we can do our 3rd FCM on Van Halen because they were that big and they changed their sets so much over the years (not to mention lineups) that there are lots of entry points depending on your age.

Tim Durling of ⁠Tim's Vinyl Confessions⁠ is just a bit younger than Action Jackson and The Wolf so while our heroes first show was the For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge Tour, Tim first so the fellas on the Balance Tour in 1995. Van Halen were Tim's favorite band but because the band never toured Atlantic Canada where he grew up, there were few opportunities to catch them live. Once he was old enough to drive across the border with his buddies, he finally caught Eddie, Alex, Mike & Sammy in Maine in August of 1995.

Tim knows Van Halen and at the time they were still his favorite band. He's even written a ⁠book on Sammy Hagar⁠ , Red on Black, so seeing his heroes was a dream come true. There were some disappointments with the opening band and the setlist was very heavy on Sammy era. But we never forget our first Van Halen concert and Tim is a rock n roll veteran who knows the real deal when he sees it.

This week, we celebrate the life and music of Elliott Smith, tracing his journey from noisy indie rocker to lo-fi DIY troubadour to the reluctant voice of a generation. Elliott released three records with his band Heatmiser and five solo classics before his untimely passing at the age of 34 in 2003 (with two posthumous collections that followed), leaving a rich, beautiful, emotionally wrought catalogue of music that continues to influence artists today.

We explore the complex, brilliant, funny, but ultimately tragic figure that was Elliott Smith, and we are fortunate to have a Third Lad who had a front row seat to his musical development - Lucas Ward from The Silver Snails. Lucas was a close friend of Elliott's (née Steven) in high school and college and shares an intimate portrait of the artist as a young man.

But this episode has a dual purpose, as we also celebrate the release of the second Silver Snails album, Speed of Light. The Silver Snails are a glam rock space pop family band based in the wine country of Italy, consisting of Lucas, his wife Elisa Fantini, and aided and abetted by their three children. It's a cosmic delight of an album - a string of ten pearls lovingly crafted to uplift, inspire, and open the hearts of listeners. It draws from a stylistically diverse, spiritually enriched, globally connected palette. Oh, it also rocks and is a lot of fun! And if their cover and video of "Video Killed The Radio Star" doesn't have you smiling from ear to ear, consult a doctor immediately.

Learn about Lucas's journey from Portland-raised Wall Street titan to Italian-dwelling psych-pop craftsman. Get a primer on Italian pop music. Laugh. Cry. Feel. Get reaffirmation that you are pretty. Be the faro d'amore. All this and more...only on O3L.

Summer’s coming in hot, and so are we. In this episode of Prisoners of Rock and Roll, we’re checking out one of the coolest, most American sounds in rock history: surf music. 

It’s a sound designed to imitate the ocean — dripping wet reverb, a clean glowing tone, and that lightning-fast, machine-gun guitar picking you instantly recognize. 

It exploded right in the gap between the first wave of rock ‘n’ rollers and the British Invasion, when the music charts had gone soft. But while surf rock as short lived, it wasn’t just a blip. 

This scene drove major advances in guitar amps, influenced guitar gods from Jimi Hendrix to Eddie Van Halen, and even helped blaze a path toward speed metal. And of course, it gave the world The Beach Boys.

This was counterculture. This was pure American teenage freedom in musical form — cars, girls, waves, and rebellion. 

In this episode, we’re riding the wave: and talking about artists like Dick Dale, The Surfaris, and the Ventures. We’ll also touch on how the Pulp Fiction soundtrack helped surf rock get back up on the board as well as some modern bands that are still hanging 10 with the sound.
