1981 DISCUSSION WITH MY PATRONS
During this week’s episode of the Mars Attacks Podcast, my Patrons join me to discuss the year that was 1981.
1981 was a great year for hard rock and metal fans! Here are some of the top albums from that year. Whether you’re into classic hard rock or shredding metal, there’s something here for everyone. So put on your leather jacket and grab your air guitar – let’s get rocking!
What’s this year’s importance when it comes to the evolution of hard rock and metal music? Forty years ago, how do some of the classic albums hold up?
The Patrons voted for 36 albums in total, but what albums made the top 10? The list is disputed throughout the episode. Do you agree with the outcome? What would your top 10 albums of 1981 list look like?
1981 was a landmark year for hard rock and metal. It is not an understatement to say it’s arguably the most important year in this genre of music, with some of the best albums ever released coming out that year by artists like Ozzy Osbourne, Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Van Halen, Def Leppard, Motley Crue, Rush and more!
Let us know what your favorite album from that era is in the comments below or on our Facebook page/group, Twitter or Instagram!

TUESDAYS ON SIGNALS FROM MARS
Signals From Mars Trivia Tuesday on Twitch is a new show where, as you might suspect, I throw out a bunch of hard rock and metal trivia questions to the audience.
Last week’s game came down to the very last question, with the winner taking away a $5 discount from the Mars Attacks Podcast Merch store. Will tonight bring a new champ?
Not only do you need to know the correct answer, but you also need to be the quickest to answer correctly. The faster you answer, the more points you obtain. But answer wrong, and you’ll lose points.
What to join in on the action, or watch and hang out in the chat? Go here to do so.
