ARF ARF Talkin' tha Victory Records album "This Is Our Revenge" by Connecticut hardcore band, With Honor. On this episode vocalist Todd Mackey takes us through this once polarizing record turned fan favorite including events leading up to it, working with producer Brian McTernan, anxiety about their new sound, no longer being in the band almost as soon as this record is released, and tha cathartic reunion With Honor has had since then even releasing another album nearly 20 years later.

SCAR THA MEEPSTER That one seems too easy. Scar the Martyr was the short-lived side-project turned full time band of Slipknot drummer and primary songwriter Joey Jordison. On Part 1 of this episode, we talk to literal hall of famer and guitar hero Kris Norris, formerly of Darkest Hour and member of Scar the Martyr who tells us all about his involvement with the project, touring with Danzig and Korn to support it, and tha aftermath of tha project ending and turning into Vimic. ...Sick!

Lonely MEEPLE With Power Deafangels rejoice. Deafheaven vocalist George Clarke joins us for our best episode at number 100.

Justice MEEPLACED By Revenge. Twenty years ago Ringworm released a pivotal album in their career. With primary songwriter and Meepster Frank "3-Gun" Novenic joining Terror full time (and eventually Hatebreed), his time he could dedicate to Ringworm was thin and that led guitarist Matt Sorg to step up and take the reins, which he has white knuckled ever since and led Ringworm to previously unthrashed territories but it all starts here. Vocalist Human Furnace and Matt talk about this transitional album, recruiting CJ Klemonski from Death Threat to help finish the job, making their first music video, Jacob Bannon's stunning album artwork, Ben Schigel from Sw1tched recording this effort, and so much more! But isn't that enough?

NOTHING MEEPMAINS... Almost works. It's the 20th anniversary of Chimaira's self-titled 2005 album and we got half the band to tell us all about it. Ohio's finest were coming off the strength of their 2003 breakout "The Impossibility of Reason" and would lean into a much more metal sound with longer songs, bigger solos, and more technical riffage. This would also be their last effort on Roadrunner and their only record with drummer Kevin Talley. How did it all come together? How did it all fall apart? What was on Kevin's video camera? All this and nothing else on this 100th episode anniversary edition of Meep Meep.

CAN'T MEEP NOW Before Rob Caggiano was a super producer of bands like Cradle of Filth and 36 Crazyfists and even before riffin' and rockin' guitars as a member of Anthrax or Volbeat, Rob Caggiano was in the band BOILER ROOM who were signed to Roadrunner for an album to be released in 2000. Their single "Do It Again" appeared on the RR compilation MTV'S RETURN OF THE ROCK but despite completing the record, the Big Bird did not actually officially release it but Tommy Boy Records did, and the band dispersed shortly after. In this 100th episode we talk all about the Boiler Room album but also some bonus Meeping with Rob's first production for Roadrunner, Dry Kill Logic's 2001 release "The Darker Side of Nonsense." Sick.

Now THAT'S a spicy MEEPBALL! Madball's 5th album, Legacy, was released domestically in tha U.S. under THA GUN aka Ferret and internationally on tha Bird - Roadrunner. Madball broke up... for a year and then they got back together! With the core members of vocalist Fred and bassist Hoya, they were joined by ex-Hatebreed drummer Rigg Ross and Skarhead alumni MITTS on guitar. B"M"D joins us to discuss tha first full length Madball album he was a part of, fresh off tha heels of his involvement in hardcore supergroup Rag Men with fellow Meepsters Bulldog from Earth Crisis and Jorge from ill Nino/Merauder/almost Sepultura. And it's all over this 100th episode.

Each Meep Haunted. The [Bruce] Banner from New Jersey were an interesting entry in tha world of metalcore in 2005. A punk rock aesthetic with a spooktacular subject matter wrapped up in breakdowns and mosh madness. In this episode, singer Joey Southside takes us through the early beginnings of tha band, unlikely inspirations for their songs spanning from Batman video games to Outbreak, an argument about whether or not he wore eyeliner or not (he did), and bonds their scene formed internally with themselves and externally with multi-platinum partners My Chemical Romance.
