Rob Dukes of GENERATION KILL joins us to talk about coffee, the new Generation Kill record "MKUtra", his favorite Exodus singer and more.


On black coffee......."I used to drink it black my entire life, and then about two years ago. Someone else turned me on to one Stevia and some heavy cream and it changed my coffee drinking forever."  



On the new GENERATION KILL "MKUtra"......."The way we pulled this record off and to have it so well received is really cool.  I'm really proud of it. I think it's I think it's the best thing I've done in my career musically to this day."   


On his favorite Exodus singer....."Well, I have to say Baloff only because he did one record twice and and Baloff was, you know, he, you know, talking to his friends and and knowing the band like I know them. I mean, I mean Tom and Gary were there from the very beginning and Baloff basically idolized Paul Di'anno, who had a little bit of punk rock going on in the beginning of the on the first two Iron Maiden records, he could sing, but he was also had a little bit of punk and and gnarliness to him, and Paul was emulating Paul. You know what I mean? He was, he was trying to be Paul Di'anno, but his skill-set was basically what he had was, he was making it up as he was going along and I, I find something really like fucking just like, you know, just romantically brilliant about that. Of just going in without having a plan. I don't know what I'm going to do. And then making this thing that turned out to be a really great piece of music that will live with us forever and Bonded by Blood is one of the best records of all time and in the in the metal world and so, you know, I'm going to go with Paul's, my favorite Exodus singer."
