Hello everyone, we're back with another Trve. Cvlt. Pop! Reviews, a podcast dedicated to one upcoming album that we believe is worth spending an entire episode on. This time Sam and Steve are looking at Life is but a Dream..., the 8th studio album by Orange County metal megastars Avenged Sevenfold. The follow up to 2016's The Stage has been a long time coming, so long that many people have already made their mind up about the record before they had even heard a note. Mainly because A7X frontman ...

Hey there! It's the long awaited return of Trve. Crvp. Pop!, the bonus podcast where we try and decipher what the worst album of all time is.

In the dock this week is Simulation Theory by the modern prog-rock megastars Muse, released on the 9th of November 2018. Steve and Sam have very different relationships with Muse, one likes the early stuff and one... well, doesn't. S...
