The Distorted Dialogue Podcast

On episode 42 of the Distorted Dialogue Podcast, bassist Braun Dabney swings by from the Lexington, Kentucky band Crop. We talk their upcoming album, S.S.R.I, pizza joints, the stories behind some of their songs, record collecting, and so much more. I had a blast not only talking to Braun, and learning so much about S.S.R.I, which might just be my album of the year, stay tuned. You can see how excited I was about this album. So, so, so thankful, that Corrine from  @CSquaredMm2  for sending this over and setting up this interview with, quite possibly the most handsome bassist in metal, Braun. I had a great time talking to Braun, and an even better time listening to this album. Go back and listen to their self titled, until SSRI drops on August 22 on Third House Communications.

Expect unfiltered, uncensored conversations, deep dives into underground music, and enough sarcasm and sonic blasphemy to earn us a few study sessions in hell.

On this episode of The Distorted Dialogue Podcast, Cold Slither guitarist Gus Rios, swings by and we talk about Cold Slither's newest Self Titled album, coming out on Reigning Phoenix Music on Friday, July 25th. Cold Slither is a concept band, taking not only their name, but so much more from GI Joe's nemesis, Zartan and the Dreadnoks. I grew up loving GI Joe, and who didn't? This album appealed not only to my love of Heavy Metal, but my love of GI Joe and the nostalgia it brought me. Reigning Phoenix Music founder Gerardo Martinez, partnered with Hasbro, the makers of GI Joe figures, and the coinciding video series that accompanied the figures. Talking with Gus, who you may know from KMFDM, Exhumed and Gruesome (another killer album this year), reignited the flame for GI Joe and he has me watching all the old episodes.

This isn't some cheesy, gimmick to sell stuff. You can see the passion Gus has for the project and I am just as excited, being a lifelong fan of both metal and Joe. As much as I want Gus and the dudes to succeed, I can't be rooting for Zartan and the Dreadnoks. Sorry, but it's YO JOE! all day, everyday.
