This week Adam, Orion and Scholze recall their boys trip away to Charlotte, NC to see the mighty Judas Priest and Sabaton on the Invincible Shield Tour!

It is amazing how Rob Halford, at a young 72 years old, can still belt out the classics and embody his metal god moniker, fully adorned with the crown of horns. Join us as we continue our metal journey into seeing two heavy metal/power metal giants touring the states armed with tanks and sentinels!

This week The Metal Oasis joins up with Coffee & Shugar The Podcast and welcome James back for a dive into Dark Sun by Dayseeker! To round out the trio, we also welcome a TMO first-timer, Heather! She brings an intriguing, grounded perspective to counterbalance the gushing praise for what James will call his Album of the Year. Dark Sun finds lead singer, Rory Rodriguez, in the throes of grief after the loss of his father, but channels that into 40 minutes of ambient synths to set the mind at peace. A lighter fare than what TMO is accustomed to but the journey must continue! So join us in the afterglow!
