In this episode,  @GhostCultKeefy666  chatted with Randy Bradbury ( @PennywiseOfficial ) and super-producer Cameron Webb ( @socialdistortion ,  @motorhead ) to discuss the debut self-titled album from  @84daysband ! Intended as a solo album from Randy apart from his work in Pennywise, the album took shape with Cameron not just behind the boards, but on bass guitar too! The band discussed how the project came together, recruiting  @NoDoubt ’s Adrian Young on drums and additional guitars from The Vandals’ Warren Fitzgerald, ideas about recording, and the notion that Punk still has a scene that is self-sustaining after 50 years. The album is out now via  @Sbam_Records /Double Helix Records:Stream/purchase 84 Days at https://ffm.bio/84days Watch the band’s music video for lead single “Mockingbird Brains” here:https://youtu.be/GF_N9fdQSbAThanks to Becky of Big Picture Media for setting up this interview! #gcshoutout - This video's shoutout is to the band: Betumeoi: https://www.instagram.com/betumeoiThe Usual Suspects: Interview by Ghost Cult Keefyhttps://www.instagram.com/ghostcultkeefyEditing by Omar Cordyhttps://www.instagram.com/ojcpicsTheme music by Salted Woundshttps://www.instagram.com/saltedwoundsnycCheck out our linktree - updated daily with top stories:⁠https://linktr.ee/ghostcultmag

In this episode,  GhostCultKeefy  chatted once again with bass legend  @MarkMenghiMusic  ( @MetalAllegiance ), this time to discuss  @KingUltramegaOfficial ! Bringing together a who's who from the Rock and Metal world to pay respects to the music of  @Soundgarden  and  @chriscornell  is no easy task. At first it was just a cover of "Rusty Cage during the shutdown of the world, with members of  @aliceinchains  and  @AnthraxBandOfficial ! Mark discusses the massive influence of 1990s rock and metal, the vibrance of New York City clubs back in the day, taking big artistic swings, working with  @AlissaWhite-Gluz ,  @RichieKotzenOfficial ,  @TheCharlieBenante ,  @JoeSatriani , and many others, and what to expect from an eventual full album of reimaginings and covers. Check out the newest single, "Preaching The End Of The World" honoring Chris Cornell and supporting  @MusiCaresFoundation  ft. Ian Thornley of Big Wreck, guitars by Pete Thorn, bass by Mark Menghi, keyboards and synth by Dave Kerzner and Frank Mitaritonna, and drums by Kenny Aronoff:youtube.com/watch?v=rmR11y2Odsk&feature=youtu.be Listen via Reigning Phoenix Music:https://kingum.rpm.link/preachingYT Thanks to Curtis Dewar of C-Squared Music and Marketing and  @ReigningPhoenixMusicOfficial  for support and for setting up this interview! #gcshoutout - This video's shoutout is to the band: Seaside Massacrehttps://www.instagram.com/seasidemassacre/
