Expect deep cuts, rapid-fire games, trivia twists, and the ever-growing series: “The Soundtrack to…”. Zero rules. Just riffs.
The Schizophrenic Music Podcast isn’t just a show — it’s a platform for sonic disobedience and musical pluralism.

S5 - Ep 19 - Hot Seats, 1987 Deep Cuts & Rethinking Music Reviews
Craig and Kevin flip the format this week, ditching the Schizo Shuffle and skipping the album cover battles — instead, they jump straight into the fire by putting each other on the hot seat with rapid-fire questions, unexpected prompts, and mildly uncomfortable musical truths.
Once the flames settle, they spotlight two underrated or overlooked albums from 1987, offering a fresh listen to a year that gave us hair metal highs, alt-rock beginnings, and pop polish with bite.
The conversation then turns introspective as they dive into the topic of music reviews — how they’ve changed from the golden days of Rolling Stone, Spin, and NME to today’s world of algorithm-fed opinions, YouTube reactors, and scores without context.
Finally, Craig throws down a challenge for both hosts moving forward:
🎯 Spend more time outside your personal genre comfort zone — and review albums that wouldn’t normally make the rotation. The goal? Stretch the ears. Challenge the bias. Embrace the unexpected.
