Rachel Bolan sits down with Eddie Trunk at the Jersey Shore to dive into his debut solo album, Gargoyles of the Garden State. The two share stories about growing up in New Jersey, from winning records on the boardwalk to sneaking into bars underage. Rachel opens up about the creative process behind the album, working with producer Nick Raskulinecz, and featuring guests like Corey Taylor, Nuno Bettencourt, and Danko Jones. They also discuss the ongoing search for Skid Row's next singer, reflect on the band's 35-year legacy since Slave to the Grind, and touch on underappreciated albums like Thickskin. After that, Phil Collen from Def Leppard sits down with Eddie to reflect on what he considers two of the best shows in the band's 44-year career during their Vegas residency. Phil opens up about Joe Elliott's three-hour vocal warmups, the band's renewed chemistry, and why they're still getting better after all these years. The conversation shifts to Man Raze, Phil's power trio with Sex Pistols drummer Paul Cook and Simon Laffy, as they release a comprehensive box set called Lock, Stock and Barrel. Phil also reveals he's been working with legendary producer Mutt Lange again on a Crossbone Skully track, discusses Delta Deep, and shares his thoughts on potentially playing the Sphere.

Interview by Kris PetersGargoyle of the Garden State, the highly anticipated debut solo album from Skid Row co-founder and bassist Rachel Bolan, releases on 12 June 2026 via earMUSIC. Stepping into the spotlight under the moniker BOLAN, this record marks a monumental milestone in the musician's four-decade career. Driven by a desire to craft something entirely his own, Bolan handles the vast majority of the recording duties himself, taking over lead vocals, bass, and most of the guitar tracks.Rooted deeply in the grit, attitude, and storytelling traditions of his New Jersey upbringing, the album is a high-octane sonic journey. Musically, it breaks away from standard hair metal conventions, leaning instead into a raw, hook-driven fusion of punk rock energy and melodic sensibilities. Bolan weaves a lifetime of diverse influences into the tracklist, drawing inspiration from Britpop, glam, new wave, and 1980s John Hughes cinema, even incorporating a sitar on the distinctly pop-punk track Memory.Though it is a solo venture, Bolan shares the experience with an impressive, star-studded lineup of close friends and peers. Listeners can expect guest appearances from legendary artists like Corey Taylor (Slipknot), Nuno Bettencourt (Extreme), Steve Conte, and Damon Johnson. Furthermore, Bolan's Skid Row family - including Scotti Hill, Dave "Snake" Sabo, and drummer Rob Hammersmith - lend their talents to various tracks. Ultimately, Gargoyle of the Garden State serves as an uncompromising, honest reflection of Bolan's true musical identity, balancing serious, reflective songwriting with an undeniable, upbeat rock-and-roll party atmosphere.HEAVY sat down with Bolan to find out more, asking him to describe what he was going for musically with the album."I was just going for a raw feel," he explained. "This record sums up me and what's going on in my head, you know, and it was fun to play guitar. I played all the rhythms and the bass, did most of the singing and then had a whole bunch of friends come in and contribute, which meant the world to me."We ask why now, after more than 40 years in music, is the right time to make a solo album."You know, I didn't find the time. The time kind of found me," he smiled. "We had downtime with Skid Row while we were searching for a vocalist and I had a bunch of songs. I kept writing through the whole process and it was more it's not now or never, but now would be a good time (laughs)."In the full interview, Rachel speaks more about Gargoyle of the Garden State and the songs on it, reflecting on the two singles released to date and if they are a good sonic representation of the album as a whole. We talked about lead track Anything But You and why it was chosen as first introduction to his solo work, plus the influence New Jersey and its way of life had on the album.We talked more about the guest artists and why they were chosen, having his Skid Row bandmates on there and why, the title and where it comes from, playing these songs live and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.
Buenos días, Carlos Alsina. El fascinante argumento resultadista de Félix Bolaños: ¿Para qué queremos presupuestos si la economía crece con fuerza? Me decía Paco Pascual ayer en la economía que más que resultadista es un argumento desarrollista. Efectivamente, es como escuchar a Franco decir que para qué queremos democracia si España crece con fuerza. No, mire, los Presupuestos no son una opción. Es la ley que financió un proyecto político y España atraviesa una así llamada Legislatura sin que se hayan aprobado unas cuentas. O sea que los presupuestos vigentes son de un Parlamento extinto, lo que cuestiona la legitimidad de ejercicio del Ejecutivo vigente. Porque además, como ayer se comprobó si que pasa algo por no tener unos presupuestos actualizados. Leo la insuficiencia de crédito presupuestario para atender compromisos ineludibles de pensiones de clases pasivas y complementos de pensiones mínimas motivó que en noviembre de 2024 se autorizaran dos modificaciones por 2.389.000.000 de euros, ambas financiadas con créditos sobrantes del mecanismo de recuperación y resiliencia. Eso dice el Tribunal de Cuentas. Ayer lo explicó el consejero discrepante del Tribunal de Cuentas, Javier Morillo, el primero que ha votado en contra de la cuenta general del Estado. Los fondos europeos fueron concebidos para reindustrializar las economías europeas tras la pandemia, no para financiar las pensiones de las clases pasivas.

Vamos a identificar al destinatario de las palabras de Félix Bolaños. No es desde luego el juez Peinado, al que ya ninguna presión va a doblegar. La presión pretende ejercerla sobre la Audiencia Provincial, que ha corregido algunos aspectos de la instrucción, pero no lo sustancial. Y qué es lo sustancial de un auto que no se agota en las florituras históricas del juez. Unos hechos que resultan sonrojantes, sea cual sea su calificación delictiva. Porque la única razón por la que se le construyó una carrera académica artificial a alguien con la formación de Begoña Gómez es porque era la mujer del presidente. Y hoy adquiere una elocuencia especial el gran logro, seguramente inalcanzable para cualquier español, de que dos empresas como Indra y Telefónica colaboraran gratis con ella. Bueno, gratis, con un coste muy notable para estas empresas. Sobre el poder que Pedro Sánchez tiene sobre ambas compañías, seguro que algo pueden contar, por su experiencia reciente, Ángel Escribano o Álvarez Pallete, que entró en la Moncloa como consejero delegado y salió como exconsejero delegado, después de que lo despidiera, ni más ni menos que un empleado de Pedro Sánchez. Indra y Telefónica, ni más ni menos. El ministro Bolaños dice que le avergüenza la instrucción del juez Peinado… y de la actuación de Begoña Gómez… nada le avergüenza.

Tommy Bolan Joins The Slimy Bastards Podcast Show - Episode 10
British reach Kabul through the Bolan pass with their Army of Indus to remove Dost Mohammad and install Shah Shuja. They occupy Afghanistan but that's when the real fight begins. They fail to ensure their control over Afghanistan. The Army of Indus is destroyed and the British send their Army of Retribution to retake Kabul, only to re-install the ruler who ruled before the British intervention. Dost Mohammad is back on the throne of Afghanistan, with British backing.How history rhymed again in 21st century Afghanistan.The Second Anglo-Afghan War (1878–1880) was fought as part of the Great Game rivalry between Britain and Russia over influence in Afghanistan. The British invaded Afghanistan with around 40,000 troops in three columns, capturing key locations like Kandahar, the Khyber Pass, and Kabul. Emir Sher Ali fled and died in exile, his son Yaqub Khan signed the Treaty of Gandamak, ceding control over Afghan foreign affairs to the British. However, after the British envoy was killed in Kabul, conflict resumed until British forces defeated Afghan forces led by Ayub Khan at the Battle of Kandahar in 1880, ending the war. Abdur Rahman Khan was installed as a British-backed emir, stabilizing the region as a buffer between Russian and British territories.The Third Anglo-Afghan War occurred in 1919 when Afghan forces under Amanullah Khan sought to reclaim full independence. The brief conflict ended with the Treaty of Rawalpindi, whereby Britain recognized Afghanistan's independence and control over its foreign affairs, ending British influence. This war marked the end of direct British intervention in Afghan sovereignty.

A history of the dandy from below, from Beau Brummell and Baudelaire to Bowie and Bolan... and beyond. The historical figure of the dandy has commonly been described as an upper-class gentleman, often exemplified by well-known men such as Beau Brummell, Charles Baudelaire, Oscar Wilde, and Max Beerbohm. But there is a broader history to be told about the dandy - one that incorporates unknown men from the lower strata of society. The Dandy: A People's History of Sartorial Splendour (Oxford UP, 2025) constitutes the first ever history of those dandies who emanated from the less privileged layers of the populace - the lowly clerks, shop assistants, domestic servants, and labourers who increasingly during the modern age have emerged as style-conscious men about town. Peter Andersson shows that dandyism is far from just an elite phenomenon represented by famous poets and artists. He shows how dandyism as a popular youth subculture grew into an influential cultural movement, from the days of Beau Brummell in the early 19th century to the age of mods in the 1960s. A series of fascinating in-depth studies of the wide variety of dandy subcultures that have surfaced around the world in the last two centuries tell the story of how the shaping of fashions and the image of men became increasingly democratized, with the arbiters of taste increasingly coming from the other end of the social spectrum. Along the way, we encounter such long-forgotten groups as the mashers, the knuts, the Paris gandins and the Berlin transgender dandies, alongside more well-known but unexplored figures like the zoot suiter, the teddy boy, and the New Romantic. Above all, this is a story of how fundamental aspects of modern culture such as fashion, style, and conduct have been shaped from below just as much as from above. It is a story that shows how the problematic business of young men trying to find an identity is an enduring phenomenon - and one sadly often accompanied by innocent victims along the way. Peter K. Andersson is a historian and writer, with a PhD in History from Lund University in Sweden. He has been a visiting scholar at the universities of London, Oxford, and Bologna, and has written extensively on Victorian cultural history, urban history, and popular culture.

In this episode we dive into the fascinating world of British artist George Underwood — a name that resonates not only in the world of fine art but also in rock history. From designing iconic album covers to painting otherworldly portraits, George's work blends the mythical with the emotional in ways few can match.But George's story is more than just brushes and canvas — it's also deeply tied to the evolution of British pop culture. As a childhood friend and early bandmate of David Bowie, George Underwood helped shape the look and feel of a musical revolution. We'll explore how a moment of teenage mischief left Bowie with his signature eye look, and how George's artistic vision matured into one of the most distinctive visual voices of the contemporary art scene.Whether you're an art lover, a music historian, or simply curious about the minds that shape our culture, this episode will leave you inspired both through Sound and Vision.Memorable Quotes:

Slade were as revolutionary as T. Rex or Roxy Music, Daryl Easlea points out. At one stage they were outselling Bowie and Bolan. They were the band that hauled the sedentary early ‘70s audience to its feet. The sound of the Ramones was built around ‘Slade Alive!' and you can feel them in the bones of the Pistols and Oasis. We talk here to Daryl about his funny, energetic, nostalgic and affectionate new book, ‘Whatever Happened to Slade?: When The Whole World Went Crazee', stopping off at various stations on the route, among them … … why there are “two tiers of Slade”. … the drunken conversation that turned them into a skinhead band overnight. … a key moment involving Crispian St Peters, Kim Fowley and the Tiles Club. … what made them football terrace heroes. … how these “smashers and grabbers” tore up the live circuit. … the very ‘70s way they dealt with Don Powell's accident. … why American audiences had their “mellow harshed”. … the publican's son who styled them. … the transformational moment at the '72 Lincoln Festival. … the story of the ‘Give Us A Goal' video filmed at Brighton's Goldstone Ground. … and why the main salesman in their line-up was the one “with tinsel in his veins”.

There are only two types of music that have this many "fa la la la la"s in the lyrics, T. Rex songs and Christmas songs, and it's still summertime so you know this ain't no Christmas episode. Nevertheless, we come bearing a gift: clear-eyed analysis of one of the most infantile, overrated and pretentious musical projects of all time. Hey, Bolan, if your music sounds like the soundtrack to a ten year old kid playing with imaginary friends in an enchanted forest, go ahead and don't name the band after one of the most fearsome apex predators to ever exist, okay? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/yfbspod/message
