In 2001 VH1 debuted the show Bands on the Run.  It was a massive hit, yet it only lasted one season...  We felt like it needed much more attention. In the wake of Flickerstick's reunion (long after Soulcracker, Harlow, and Josh Dodes threw in their towels), we have decided to break down this insanely dated time-capsule of what-the-f*ckedness and talk with other touring musicians, friends, and music journalists about what they got wrong and what they got right.

No project is complete without a visual component.  Album covers, show posters, marketing materials...  All of that is a crucial element to every release and campaign.  Jeff Everett (Rockets Are Red, El Jefe Design) is a dude that has been intimately involved in the visual side of music for decades and somehow ONLY gets better with time as he branches out into film and wrestling as well.   Jeff came by to talk about the business side of the music business, the visual side of the art form, the existential crisis moments every artist goes through, pulling your head out of tough spots and so much more. His ability to eloquently describe these things and beautifully illustrate these things is the reason he is always working with bands like The Foo Fighters, Gaslight Anthem, Against Me!, The Bouncing Souls, Jawbreaker, Clutch; wrestlers like Dalton Castle, Danhausen, Luchabros, Jericho, and more; celebrating films like Point Break, Stephen King's IT, Before Sunrise, and more... The dude just does it all and is finally letting us all celebrate the journey in book form. You can pre-oreder and support the book at let-it-bleed.com Buy prints, shirts, posters and more at rockets-are-red.com   Keep up with his online content and more at is instagram:  @rocketsarered   Book Kickstarter kicks off Valentines Day   March 4th - Jeff will be at a Pop Up Gallery Show and Book Discussion at Lost Origins Gallery in Mt Pleasant in DC.

Episode 50(!!!!) of "Film Basics with Bassists that Love Film" is a milestone worth celebrating with one of the baddest names in the biz.  We are of course referring to THE Chris Slorach of THE band METZ.  Not only does this dude have an insanely insightful approach to his bass tone and gear, but he also has an encyclopedic knowledge of horror films, so we are thrilled to draft some of our faves with him. The Shining, The Thing, and all the obvious ones make an appearance, but there are some surprises that pop up like a committed Paul Rudd.  Strap in and enjoy this massive celebration of Hiwatt, horror, a couple generations of Cronenberg, and beyond.

In 2001 VH1 debuted the show Bands on the Run.  It was a massive hit, yet it only lasted one season...  We felt like it needed much more attention. Rayshele Teige of Harlow joins Ross and Nat to talk about her experiences on the show, reality television in general, her music career on and off the stage, her work with Prophecy Productions, and so much more. Rayshele is an insane storyteller that shines a light on all the shadowy areas we have yet to see in our exploration of all things Band's on the Run, the infamous run-in with David Cross, the Fickerstick conspiracy, and so much more.

Justin Pearson is a boundary pusher if there ever was one.  Musically, his output is simply jawdropping.  A genre-defying player that continues to put out some of the most unique and deliberate music I have ever heard.   His band Dead Cross (feat members of Faith No More and Slayer) released their second LP today, and it absolutely rips.  We discuss the development of this, his approach to writing with some of music's most talented folks, and we are even joined by mutual friend/regular guest here Brent Eyestone (Bleach Everything, Dark Operative, and more) to hear some of the craziest stories about being in a band. If you like gear, crazy tour stories, deep insight into the creative process, and much more, then you will love this conversation.
