Have you got our latest podcast project? It's time for even MORE of that Van you love to hate, because we're deep diving into round 2 of this miserable musical end of life crisis.

Van Morrison - Latest Record Project Vol. 1 Part 1 (w/ Brandon Vallee) 2:21:19

3y ago2:21:19

2:21:19

Welcome Back, Stoppies! We're officially rounding the corner on a whole 100 episodes and 5 seasons of musical masochism, so thank you for your patience in advance for what will likely be a much more relaxed release schedule this time around. As punishment for our tardiness we kick off the "fun" by attempting to tackle cantankerous Celtic crooner Va…

Season 4 Finale - Ska vs. Nu Metal Thunderdome (w/ Ethan Marsh) 2:41:14

3+ y ago2:41:14

2:41:14

Alright stoppies, it's the moment you've all been waiting for - a knock down, drag out deathmatch between two deeply embarrassing teenage genres of the late 90s: Nu Metal vs. 3rd Wave Ska. Nu Metal Mike vs. Perpetual Ska Kid Heather battle it out with fan of both genres and very funny comedian Ethan Marsh reffing to make sure there's no wallet chai…

Crash Test Dummies - Give Yourself a Hand (w/ Mistress Carrie) 2:13:32

3+ y ago2:13:32

2:13:32

MMM MMMM MMMM...nah. The world was briefly captivated in the early 90s by Brad Roberts' low, smoldering baritone and his band of eccentric Canadian rockers the Crash Test Dummies. The one hit hit hard, but after a string of sloppy follow ups, the Dummies were in the doldrums by the time 1999's Give Yourself A Hand rolled around. To switch things up…

Jack White - Boarding House Reach 1:56:50

3+ y ago1:56:50

1:56:50

We're reaching, and retching this week as we take a deep dive into Jack White's version of a musical midlife crisis, 2018's Boarding House Reach. Vocoder, hot topic spoken word poetry and RAPPING all make an appearance on this bloated collection of song stems, incoherent rambles, and riffless meandering sonic slogs that sound like the last gasps of…

March Badness PART DEUX Semifinals Round 2: Will.i.am vs. Twenty One Pilots (w/ Brian and Julez) 2:05:32

It's a bad, bad world Stoppies, and tonight's gonna be a long night as we go head to head with some of the most godawful garbage we've ever had to haul on this dumb, tragic show. Longtime besties and very funny friends Brian and Julez hold our hands as we wade through the muck of the legendarily insufferable Will.i.am whose dumb dumb drivel about g…

March Badness PART DEUX Semifinals Round 1: 311 vs. Chainsmokers (w/ Maggie and Ashleigh of Rock Candy Podcast) 2:16:57

3+ y ago2:16:57

2:16:57

Things are heating up as March Badness moves into the S-S-SEMI FINALS. Rippity rappity reggaety rockity 311 adds dubstep and Imagine Dragons-style indie to their bloated repertoir on 2019's Voyager, and that album goes head to head with the massively maligned one seed Chainsmokers' dashed off and cast aside nothing-album Sick Boy (2018). It is a HE…

March Badness PART DEUX Round 1, Episode 2: Train vs. 21 Pilots (w/ Nick Ortolani) 2:13:54

3+ y ago2:13:54

2:13:54

On Make it Stop we continue to hone in on a central thesis of bad music - that no matter the genre, no matter the age or era, all bad music begins to flow together into the same swirling cesspool of shit. Nowhere is this more apparent than in tonight's episode of March Badness pitting whiny wine mom fantasy husband Pat Monahan and his band Train ag…

It's that time yet again, Stoppies. M-M-M-MARCH B-B-B-BADNESSSSSSSS. Our annual tournament to determine the worst of the worst is back, and it's time for six elite-level awful musical acts to duke it out for the trophy (we should have a trophy, huh). The first match of the Preliminary Round pits Western Mass's own constipated sad dads Staind agains…

The Clash - Cut the Crap (w/ Brandon, Jack and Meagan from Time and Place) 2:05:41

3+ y ago2:05:41

2:05:41

They were the only band that mattered, but by 1985 they were in tatters. The Clash's swan song Cut The Crap is infamous in the music world, regarded by some as the worst album ever made. Having split with co-frontman and primary songwriter Mick Jones, Joe Strummer soldiered on with a few savvy studio musicians and his egomaniacal manager Bernard Rh…

Green Day - Father of all... (w/ Ben Stein) 1:35:30

3+ y ago1:35:30

1:35:30

In 1994 three meth addled young punks from Oakland released an album that changed the musical landscape for decades, building the bridge that shepherded California pop punk from the fringes to the mainstream. 26 years and 10 albums later as, presumably, meth addled old punks, they released an album that changed nothing but the minds of longtime fan…

Vanilla Ice - Mind Blowin' (w/ VQ of BLOWW and Izzy Da Rosa) 2:07:07

It's Black History Month, which means it's the perfect time for another round of Eviscerating White Nonsense with returning white rapper roundup participant VQ of BLOWW and Boston comedian Izzy Da Rosa. The object of our ire this time is of course the ultimate Great White Embarassment Vanilla Ice and his 1992 follow up to his megahit debut album, t…

Worst Music of 2020 2:21:47

4y ago2:21:47

2:21:47

2020 is coming to an end, may it rot and burn in hell, and as expected an unimaginably awful year brought us a slew of unimaginably awful albums. Mike and Heather can barely keep it together as they lament the slow death of culture and the creeping Post Malone-ification of all music. Everything sucks and it's going to suck forever. Genres become me…

Duck Dynasty - Duck The Halls with Alex and Liv 1:45:00

1:45:00

Stoppies, we know you know what Christmas is all about - materialist accumulation, wealth hoarding, Judeo-Christian values, heteronormative baking rituals, duck sex, beards. Thank the Christian God that we found an album that perfectly embodies that spirit. This Holiday Season we're talking about Duck Dynasty's 2013 Christmas Cash-in album Duck The…

To make it a family affair they're joined by Alex Dunn (Mike's Brother), and Brian Melanson (Heather's Pretend Dad). It's time for a tWiSteD Turkey Day 'cause we're…

Train - Save Me, San Francisco (w/ Emily Ruskowski and Jane Doe) 2:13:40

4y ago2:13:40

2:13:40

This week our hearts are beating right out of our untrimmed chests as we take a ride on the monorail of monotony. Train drizzled onto the scene in 1998 with their humble hit "Meet Virginia" and followed that up with milquetoast smash "Drops of Jupiter" in 2001, but it wasn't until "Hey Soul Sister" that they truly wormed their way into every human …

Do you like trying different things? Or do you prefer smoking funny things? This week we're talking about Robbie Ritchie, Bobby Shazam, his name is Kid Rock, that is his name, and if you ask him again, he'll probably call you a slur. He's a conservative flip flopper, a confederate flag loving yankee, a Detroit-repping white rapper who grew up on a …

1:48:06

In 2007 there was perhaps no one on earth more notorious than DeAndre Way, better known as Soulja Boy. His signature style of simplified, self-produced snap music swept the world as lead single "Crank Dat (Soulja Boy)" quickly rocketed to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and he made himself a multimillionaire at age 17, no small feat for a young black t…

Oh, Liz Phair. An indie darling and feminist rock icon who DIY-ed herself into underground superstardom with her classic 1993 album "Exile in Guyville", Phair had gone through some ups and downs musically and personally after her breakout album, putting out a few quietly mediocre albums in the late 90s and getting married, having a child, and divor…

There can be no denying that we here at Make It Stop are headstrong, and that we will, of course, take on anyone. This week we've set our sights on early aughts nu-emo bruisers Trapt. A flash in the pan that came and went from the public consciousness about as quickly as a band possibly can with their debut 2002 self titled album, nonetheless singe…

2:09:04

On this week's episode of Make it Stop we continue to rail against insufferable, self-important celebrities who take themselves way too seriously, this time taking aim at U2 and their 2014 album Songs of Innocence, which was famously auto-downloaded to every iPod in America without consent. That being said, it's not too terrible of an album, with s…

On today's Make It Stop Heather and Mike take aim at the uniting cultural event that has brought a quarantined America together: Tiger King. Specifically, the music of the King himself, Joe Exotic. Or rather, the music he commissioned someone with a much better (and clearly wildly different) voice to make. Your intrepid hosts react live to no less …

Worst of Madonna 1:44:25

Madonna Louise Ciccone has reinvented herself countless times. She's a diva, a gay icon, and a culture vulture of the highest magnitude. She redefined womens' place in popular music. Truly, she's nothing short of a legend. She's also a new age whackjob, neolib ghoul, and has literally stolen children from impoverished Africans. There is a whole lot…

Along with the requisite collection of washed up has-beens and plastic bubble gum that you've come to expect from our yearly wrap up, the end of the decade also provided us with a bounty of white rap dorks, cheesy…

Raised in her sister's shadow and shunned and ridiculed by the public, Ashlee Simpson was put through a lot for a 19 year old. Her public image took a massive hit following a disastrous SNL lip synching gaffe, leading to a number of hit pieces, a high level of media scrutiny, and the merciless booing of her performance at the Orange Bowl. Was she r…

We're the ones listening to bad albums out there. Not you, not you, and not you. This week it's all about a true patriot and visionary, Boston's favorite son, revisionist 9/11 savior and vicious hate crime non-apologist Mark Wahlberg. Specifically, his stint as a New Kids-affiliated shirtless (and sometimes pantsless) white rapper named Marky Mark.…

Even though they'd go on to extend their careers another three decades, The Rolling Stones were already Old Bags of Bones when they released Dirty Work in 1986. Mick Jagger was content to sod off and work on his questionable solo project, Charlie Watts was so zonked on heroin the band needed to hire session drummers to finish the record, and the re…

Ignored during their prime and largely forgotten today, mid-aughts scene starlets Millionaires pioneered a brazenly sexual and depraved style of pop music which smashed the glass ceiling of doing songs about snorting coke off hard dicks.

Creed's Human Clay. An album of contradictions. It's the best-selling album we've ever covered yet it's universally reviled.

It's packed with lyrical moralizing yet Scott Stapp is a mess of a human being, the human embodiment of Florida Man. 20 years after Human Clay's re…

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were everywhere, an inescapable vortex of inexplicable SoCal vernacular, mountains of action figures, and cartoon pizzas with really delicious looking drippy cheese. So strong was their hold on pop culture…
