Naomi Carmack of the Dope Nostalgia podcast joins us to revisit the six times platinum debut album Sixteen Stone by Bush. Released in May of 1995, the album spawned five inescapable singles and videos released in 1995 and 1996, propelling the band into the bright media spotlight. While the band had their share of fans, they also had detractors labeling the band as radio made grunge-lite thanks to frontman Gavin Rossdale appealing to more than just a young, male audience. In revisiting the record, we take time to appreciate the guitar work of Nigel Pulsford, who riffs and slides with taste and noise throughout the well crafted record despite some lackluster album tracks.
