Show notes

My guest for this installment of the podcast is Rick Jimenez, Vocalist and Guitarist in the Hardcore / Thrash band Extinction A.D. Rick came on to discuss the recording of the bands new album "To the Detested" which is out now on Unique Leader Records.

Rick was very insightful and vulnerable for a lot of this albums themes and concepts, very rarely does a musician and guest bare all for their art and Rick was incredibly thorough with everything to do with the band and album.

BONUS: Jason Krawczyk (Writer/Director - He Never Died) Aug 09, 2024

Show notes

Welcome to this BONUS episode. This is something that was recorded almost a year ago for a podcast I was trying to do called The Horror Archives. I had on Writer and Director Jason Krawczyk. Jason came on the podcast to talk about the (almost) 10 year anniversary of his film He Never Died, starring Henry Rollins.I wanted to share this here as it was a good interview and we had a lot to talk about with the making of the film and because Jason took the time to do this for an unknown podcast.Jason has a bunch of projects in the works and is also an author with his current book release called "Reality Squall"

His newest film called Dont Mess with Grandma (which at the time of recording was called Sunset Superman), starring Michael Jai White will be out in 2024.Support the podcastPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/heavymetalhistoryInstagram: instagram.com/heavymetalhistoryFacebook: www.facebook.com/heavymetalhistorypodcast
