Ep. 268: Grave Mistake: TRIUMPH Shoulda Been Huge-er-er!!! – pt.2

InObscuria Podcast

This week we continue our journey to the Great White North! This is the triumphant finale of our celebration of an amazing power trio from Toronto that has been largely forgotten in the pantheon of rock n’ roll: TRIUMPH! From classic hard rock & metal to proggy AOR, this is a band that rarely gets the praise they deserve!

This episode is rooted in our Should Have Been category. This is a band that Captain Content has mentioned before as a band he would love to dive into deeper. While not the most obscure band we’ve ever covered (they have multiple platinum and gold albums in the US and Canada), they have been largely forgotten as the rock giants they once were. We think they should be remembered as titans or rock and thus: Huge-er-er!!! Eh?

Songs this week include:

1. Triumph - “Time Goes By” from Thunder Seven (1984)
2. Triumph - “When The Lights Go Down” from Stages (1985)
3. Triumph - “Mind Games” from Stages (1985)
4. Triumph - “Play With Fire” from The Sport Of Kings (1986)
5. Triumph - “Carry On The Flame” from Surveillance (1987)
6. Triumph - “Edge Of Excess” from Edge Of Excess (1992)
7. Triumph - “I Live For The Weekend” from Live At Sweden Rock Festival (2008)
