Grading the 1989 Hard Rock Albums
Thursday, 18 December, 2025
A few weeks ago, the Kousins did a retrospective of music (and other pop-culture things) from 1989, which focused on the hard rock genre (which can be found here). The Kousins may be visiting other years (the jury is still out). But, if we do, and before we all move on, it is time to grade the top hard rock albums of 1989 (in their opinion). The albums that were graded (from A+ to F) were (in no particular order): LA Guns – Cocked and Loaded Warrant – Dirty Rotten Filthy Stinking Rich Mötley Crüe – Dr. Feelgood KISS – Hot in the Shade King’s X – Gretchen Goes to Nebraska Skid Row – Skid Row W.A.S.P. – The Headless Children Great White – …Twice Shy Nine Inch Nails – Pretty Hate Machine Red Hot Chili Peppers – Mother’s Milk Faith No More – The Real Thing Extreme – Extreme Calls from Eugene of Wheeler’s Dog Podcast, Jim from Irwin, Nick from California, and Jem from Alabama. What would your grades be for those albums? Let us know by calling the TLDNetwork (KUZZ Army) hotline and leaving a message for the Kousins at 336-422-NUMB (6862). We have Instagram and Twitter. We can’t ask for those “enjoy” things and for you to keep getting updates because Facebook doesn’t like that. Pfft… This podcast was recorded in the Such-N-Such Media Studios at Liberty Plaza and connected via Zoom, sponsored by Top Leaf Cigar Lounge.
