026: Should Bands Use Spotify Data To Pick Their Setlists?
</h5>
<div class="text-line-clamp text-line-clamp-3 balanced-p fs-8 text-muted text-break">
Metallica are reportedly using Spotify data to pick setlists based on popular listening habits – but is that a good idea? Merlin, Eleanor and Luke debate the idea from both sides.

We&#39;re also discussing Behemoth, Manowar, Slash, the best festival sets ever and bands that never changed lineup.

Plus there&#39;s a BIG review of Heavy Montreal festival.
