Two thirds of the TNM team decide to drink their way through the apocalype as we bring you a bumper mailbag, some of the year's most ridiculous news from Jared Leto in the desert to Trapt, reviews on the new In This Moment, Myrkur and Hyborian and there's a celebration of alll things Wildhearts as Endless Nameless gets the Album Club treatment.

We've had the tagline "support the things you love" since our inception and there has never been a more appropriate time to repeat that mantra. This special look at the realities facing the music that you love. We get the perspective of some folks on the frontline as we check in with Dylan from Spanish Love Songs and esteemed music managers Matt Hughes (Black Peaks, Jamie Lenman) and Mike Mowery (Ice Nine Kills). We'll be back on Friday with our regular programming. Stay safe and stay home.

We try to keep things upbeat as we discuss the very real implications of the Coronavirus on the music we love, we discuss the biggest album of the year so far in Code Orange's Underneath as well as new albums from Body Count and Video Nasties.If you want to help support bands effected by the Coronavirus, please click this link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lVjdd-66y2D_DrsRuXUwNUz8KB_mx7R-cmMh1WwBQrI/edit?usp=sharing
