Karina Sher - Lake of Dreams/Ragebreed

Today I'm joined from the UK by Karina Sher, CEO of Ragebreed and Vocalist/Songwriter for Lake of Dreams. Karina and I had an awesome chat about her work with the rapidly growing Ragebreed Group, her acoustic project Lake of Dreams, her previous band Mindlapse, and some other random awesomeness. She's definitely hard at work promoting bands, music, and the metal scene. Check this one out!

Claudeous Creamer -Possessed/Power Shift

Just over a year ago, I had the opportunity to hang out with  shredmaster Claudeous Creamer backstage at a Possessed show in Oakland, CA. At this time, Revelations of Oblivion was getting ready to be released and the band was gearing up for some major touring and promotion. And now, a year and some change later, Claudeous returns to the show to talk about his new band Power Shift, which is currently talking the metal world by storm. We discussed the formation and origin of the band, his heavy hitting bandmates Greg Christian (Testament/Trauma) and Jim Settle (Hand of Fire), his work with prolific producer/mixer/engineer Juan Urteaga, and the band's upcoming debut album. We also shot the shit about some random awesomeness, my experience at that now ;legendary Possessed show, and what Claudeous has been doing during Covid to retain his sanity. So stick around and check out this conversation and hear the debut single from Power Shift called Survive.

Chris Hubbard - Thirteenth Sign

I was recently introduced to Thirteenth Sign, a UK-based band that spans the gray areas between power, thrash, and death metal. So I was dead chuffed when guitarist Chris Hubbard agreed to come on the show. We had an awesome convo about all things Thirteenth Sign: the band's history, their unique style, the recordings of their albums, and of course their influences. Chris also gave an exclusive drop about the recording and concept of their as-of-yet untitled upcoming fourth album. Make sure you check this out!

Coke Finlay - Virus

Today we take another trip overseas, this time to hang out in Dundee, Scotland with Coke Finlay from old school UK thrash Band Virus. I had a blast chatting with Coke about the origin of the band and its tumultuous early days, the evolution of the band's style and approach to the industry, the UK and worldwide metal scene, his relationship with Combat Records, and of course the upcoming release of their new album Evilution Apocalypse. We also went down a pretty deep rabbit hole where Coke let loose on his feelings about his previous band members and their attempt to simultaneously operate under the Virus name. This was an awesome conversation that you definitely don't want to miss! Thanks to Chris Heap from Heaps of Metal for hookin' us up!
