Cutter's RockCast

The world of rock and rap have been colliding for years, but more and more artists are using the two styles together to create a musical style all their own. One of the newest artists to do that is Zero 9:36 and he's not apologizing for his rock roots, in fact he's embracing them. Let's meet him and find out what makes his music tic.

Just a good quick hit, fun time rock and roll conversation the legendary punk rock band The Offspring. Guitarist Kevin "Noodles" Wasserman and Bryan "Dexter" Holland join us via zoom from their studio where they've been putting the finishing touches on their new album 'Let The Bad Times Roll' The title track is out and now and the whole thing will be released on April 16th.

If you listened to this podcast or me on the radio by this point you probably know that Leigh and I truly are old friends. We did tend to get a little retrospective in this conversation, plus talk about our love of Football. Oh and Pop Evil have a new album coming out this spring, or so we hope.

Andy Biersack is the lead singer of the band Black Veil Brides. Over the past decade or so Black Veil Brides have amassed a giant hard core following and for good reason. Now with the release of the song "Scarlet Cross" they are poised to gain more followers. We find out about their new album and get the low down on the Amazon Prime show 'Paradise City' staring Andy and Asking Alexandria guitarist Ben Bruce.

You know Corey Taylor as the lead singer of Slipknot. Also as the lead singer of Stone Sour. Also has an accomplished author. Just cause now he's a solo artist too. Last fall he put out his debut solo album entitled 'CMFT' I think you can figure out what that stands for. Now it's time to get into it further with the one and only Corey Taylor.

PS...Kaytie is back for this one as well.

Listen, this conversation with Shaun Morgan of Seether involves religion, it involves mental health and drug addiction, it involves the subject of current world issues and of course we talk music too. I Cutter can honestly tell you that it's very rare that a recorded conversation in front of a microphone goes this deep. I have the utmost love and respect for this man. This conversation is filled with brutal honesty about subjects that are not always easy to talk about. This is worth your time.

Seether's 'Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum' is available everywhere now.

The Human Condition is the name of the 7th studio album from Kentucky's modern southern rock heroes Black Stone Cherry. Yet there is a heaviness to the album that we haven't heard from them. Ben Wells is the guitarist of Black Stone Cherry and you know how I love my riffs! Let's catch up and dig in on Black Stone and The Human Condition.

If you dig back through some of these episodes you'll find the first time I ever had the chance to meet and have a conversation with Sam Carter, the lead singer of the UK metalcore band Architects. That sold out show that evening sold me on everything this band has ever done and now they are back with an actual mainstream rock hit. Their new album 'For Those That Wish to Exist' will be out on February 26th. Let's get into it with Sam Carter from Architects.

Full disclosure when I set everything up for Taylor to return to the Rockcast it was my birthday and therefore wished me a happy birthday a couple of times. Besides that though we nerd out on guitar players, talk about building Pink Floyd puzzles and go in depth on the new album ‘Death By Rock and Roll’ and more specifically their two new songs “25” and “And so it Went.”

Throughout the month of January Avatar has been holding special live stream concerts. Every Saturday with a new theme. The first was about their latest album Hunter Gatherer and then different eras of the band every Saturday. Lead singer and all around amazing human Johannes Ekerstrom joins me on Cutter's Rockcast
