Le magazine de l'actualité discographique et musicale énervée présenté par Christophe Droit - Troisième émission de cette deuxième saison avec, comme album de la semaine, "True Rockers" de Monster Truck.
With the release of Monster Truck's new album, True Rockers, deliciously imminent following frustrating delays in its creation, guitarist Jeremy Widerman is itching for his music and the whirlwind roadshow that accompanies it to be unshackled. Due to hit Europe and the UK with musical brothers-in-arms Black Stone Cherry and The Cadillac Three from November, True Rockers has a befitting platform for its unleashing in the live arena.However, True Rockers proved to be a taxing album for the Truck to nail: “We dwelled and listened, and dwelled some more... We got way too far down the rabbit hole and we started to panic. And so we decided to delay the record and go back into the studio... In some ways we maybe pushed the boundaries a little too far.”But who dares, wins, and True Rockers is a veritable rainbow of vibrant rock'n'roll – and one that presents Dee Snider as part of its pot-of-gold prize, with his exuberant cameo on opening track “True Rocker”. “[Snider] had a 'holy shit, who are these guys?!' type moment – all of a sudden I'm getting a text from Marv [Jon Harvey, Monster Truck's front man] saying 'have you seen what's going on on the internet right now? Dee Snider loves our band!'”Listen to the full interview to hear Jeremy discuss all this and more, including the value of emergency keyboard composition when touring with Deep Purple, Monster Truck's keysmeister Steve Kiely's heart of gold, and where the hidden Monster Truck shrine is located...
True Rockers in the industry, Monster Truck has gotten high praise from many successful artists including Dee Snider of Twisted Sister, Alice In Chains and more. Jeremy Widerman of Monster Truck is the special guest on episode 64 of the DOMKcast with Lunchbox and Promo Brady. The band is out of Canada but have a unique blend of southern rock. How did that come about and who were some of their influences growing up? The care free guys from Monster Truck don’t have an astounding story on how they got their name. Just a couple of dudes sitting around getting drunk one night. During an enthralling conversation about music, they joked about making a band named Monster Truck. The rest is history. New album “True Rockers” is due out September 14th. Title track is the lead single and features Dee Snider on guest vocals midway through the song. The band got connected with him in Toronto while Dee was working on a Broadway play. He became an instant fan of Monster Truck and has been championing them ever since. Maybe we’ll get Dee Snider on the DOMKcast soon. The band plans on touring extensively in support of the new album later this year and into 2019. Recently played the Download Festival across the pond in Europe in front of hundred’s of thousands of people. Rock is the king format over there. Why is that? How long do you think until rock music becomes king again in the states? Jeremy Widerman answers those questions and more on episode 64 of the DOMKcast.
