Released on this day in 1994, Sean’s #albumoftheweek is the self-titled debut by nu-metal pioneers KoЯn

While not a band that he revisits as often as Tool or Pennywise, KoЯn is equally foundational to Sean’s musical journey

Check out Season 1 Episode 18 when Sean added Blind to the Playlist

Released on this day in 1997, Joe's #albumoftheweek is El Gran Orgo by At the Drive-In

An EP with a complicated place in the ATDI canon, it's likely unavailable for streaming due to a dispute with the band & label, leaving a favorite of Joe's, picket fence cartel, unavailable for our Playlist
