For the uninitiated, Ethan Brosh is a supremely-talented rock guitar wizard who has long-since mastered epic shreddery yet somehow only continues to improve.

Recently we were able to send Brosh some of our gear questions to which he was kind enough to reply and divulge some info about his ISP Technologies Theta Preamp.

I had the opportunity recently to discuss with Steven about themes and symbols in his music, what his music means to the younger generation, his creative process, being a musical god/sex symbol (no, really), and making people feel. And a lot more, obviously. Enjoy!

I recently had a moment to chat with Cameron Argon (also known as “Big Chocolate”), the mastermind behind the death metal band Disfiguring The Goddess, about his newest album Sleeper. “Big Chocolate” is currently one of the biggest names in the music production world and so I thought it would be appropriate to pick his brain and find out what kind of gear he uses to get those incredible sounds. Here’s what he had to say.

Sam Dunn is a man who may have single handedly made more of an impact on Heavy Metal than anyone else in the business. This Toronto-based hard music aficionado, musician and anthropologist has produced, directed and hosted many ground-breaking documentaries on the subject of metal, plus took on the daunting task of mapping out the genre’s innumerable sub categories with a thoroughly comprehensive chart. With much-loved films to his credit (‘Metal: A Headbanger’s Journey’, ‘Iron Maiden: Flight 666’, ‘Rush: Beyond The Lighted Stage’), he discusses with us how metal fans can now help to create his next work ‘Extreme Metal: The Lost Episode’. Sam also elaborates on what he and his crew are up to currently, his work with Alice Cooper, plus future projects. Watch now, learn about this amazing man and his deep passion for music, and see why he needs your help!

I recently had the pleasure of speaking with Hank Williams III (aka Hank3) about his four new CD releases. Williams is a prolific songwriter who comes from music royalty; he is the grandson of Hank Williams and the son of Hank Williams Jr.. As one might expect Hank3 is well versed in many genres of music and In 2011 he released, Ghost to a Ghost/Gutter Town (a two disc country record), 3 Bar Ranch Cattle Callin’ (a metal record) and Attention Deficit Domination (a doom rock record). After many years with a major label Williams is now doing things by himself, on his own terms. He’s currently touring in support of all four records with shows that are each three and a half hour long adventures. Here’s what Williams had to say about the records, the touring and what it is like to finally be free to do exactly what he wants.
