The Unmistakable Roar Of Rock With JOSH TODD From BUCKCHERRY
Interview by Kris Peters
Today we're going to do something a little bit different. Instead of just talking normally about an album, as people normally do, HEAVY reviewed the upcoming release from Buckcherry - Roar Like Thunder - and went through it with vocalist Josh Todd song by song and he let us know if we were on the right track before giving us a bit more of a detailed version of what the song is about.
We started with the review intro.
"I've long been a fan of Buckcherry and their music. It has always held an infectious air of defiance and a rebellious swagger that has defied much of the music that has punctuated the last 25 years, with the band making an immediate statement with the classic song Lit Up from their self-titled 1999 debut album. They have always been a band that skirts in the shadowy side of the rock realm, defying trends and expectations while still managing to have somewhat of a crossover appeal that evades many others.
After losing track of the band for a few years, I caught up again with Buckcherry for their sensational Fuck EP in 2014 and have kept up with every release since. The band seemed to find a fresh air of rock-drenched goodness on their 2021 release Hellbound, which they carried through to Volume 10 two years later. So it is with a great deal of excitement I sit to listen to their upcoming album, Roar Like Thunder, which is scheduled for release on June 13th."
"That's great. Love it," Todd smiled. "Yeah, we're very excited. You know, we've already dropped three songs off the record, Roar Like Thunder, the title track, Come On and Set It Free, and everybody's loving it. It's a great record, you know, and it rocks from beginning to end. We're really excited for it to hit the streets."
The full interview features a track-by-track analysis of Roar Like Thunder, where Josh highlighted themes of focus and ambition in the title track and expressed enthusiasm for the positive reception of three already released songs. He shared insights into the songwriting process, mentioning the evolution of tracks like Talking Bout Sex, inspired by Cardi B and George Michael, and Blackout, which reflects his personal struggles with alcohol.
The conversation also covered the blues influences in songs like I Go Boom, which explores sociopathic themes, and the motivational nature of Set It Free. Other tracks discussed included Hello Goodbye, which contemplates bittersweet relationships, and Machine Gun, showcasing the band's storytelling ability. The dialogue concluded with praise for Let It Burn, seen as a powerful finale, reinforcing Buckcherry's strong presence in rock music.
