Talk Is Jericho

Nasty Savage founding frontman Nasty Ronnie Galletti gives a detailed BTS look at the band’s new album, “Jeopardy Room,” their first in some 20 years! He explains what inspired him to put his pioneering thrash metal band back together in 2016 and start touring, and how that led to songwriting and the recording of a new studio album. He also talks about the band’s early days including their formation, and the grassroots marketing effort they started in Brandon, Florida that eventually resulted in them signing with Metal Blade Records. He shares stories about their legendary, over-the-top live shows, which were influenced by everything from professional wrestling to Alice Cooper to Wendy O. Williams from the Plasmatics (whom Ronnie says inspired him to smash TVs). And of course Ronnie reveals how he got involved with Florida Championship Wrestling and Kevin Sullivan, Luna & The Lock, and RVD, and even tells the story about meeting (and almost booking) future WWE superstar, Chyna!
