Hey Strutters! This week is monumental as we celebrate the 10th anniversary of "Everybody Wants." Originally released in the UK on July 28, 2014, this debut album has shaped the band's trajectory despite initial challenges. Remember the iconic single "Could Have Been Me"? It\u2019s still rocking hard! We take a nostalgic trip down memory lane, revisiting the tracks that didn't make the 2016 US reissue and discussing the bittersweet differences. As always, we're diving deep into the music that influences our favorite band, and this week\u2019s pick is a legendary classic that you won't want to miss.\nIn today's episode, Luke and I wrap up our series on influential albums by spotlighting Meat Loaf's "Bat Out of Hell." Luke shares how discovering this album on vinyl during a tough time in his life offered both solace and inspiration. From the epic theatrics of Jim Steinman\u2019s songwriting to the relentless passion Meat Loaf brought to each track, this album has left an indelible mark on Luke\u2019s musical journey. Whether it's the dramatic spoken word intro of "You Took the Words Right Out of My Mouth" or the rebellious energy that courses through the entire album, Luke\u2019s insights will make you appreciate this rock masterpiece even more.\nSo, grab your headphones and let\u2019s get lost in the music together.
