Cutter's RockCast Cutter

The band Nothing More ten years ago exploded on the modern rock world with their self-titled album. Since then they have put out some of their best work and it looks like that journey will continue with their new album Carnal due out on June 28th. Joining from their current tour with Wage War we get into the details of the songs and the raw emotion that has inspired this new album. 

You know Kerry King as the legendary guitarist of what some would say are the ultimate heavy metal band, Slayer. Well a few years ago Slayer announced their retirement, they were hanging up the riffs for good. So Kerry being Kerry King took some songs he had already been working on and decided to put out a solo record. He's got a great lineup of musicians with him including Paul Bostaph of Slayer, Phil Demmel formerly of Machine Head, Kyle Sanders from Hellyeah and singing is Mark Osegueda of Death Angel. That reads like a supergroup of metal lineup, but here they are playing with Kerry King. The finished product is the album From Hell I Rise due out on May 17th. Kerry sits down with me to fill us in on how this project came out of the ashes of Slayer.

I should also mention that Slayer did reunite and are playing some select festivals later this year, but how that happened will have to be saved for another conversation down the line. 

There are few voices more recognizable than that of Sebastian Bach. Back in the day Skid Row was one of the biggest bands in the world, and it's been a long time since we've heard Bach music that has the same potential as those first two Skid Row records, but here in 2024, that narrative can be changed. His new solo album called Child Within the Man comes out on May 10th and there's a great reason to be excited about it, the songs absolutely kick ass! Sebastian may have never sounded this good. I'm being dead serious about that. Listen to the tunes and then come back and listen to explain this album and share some stories too. Buckle up! It's time for Bach n' Roll!

This week we are getting an introduction to a new band you might want to pay attention to. If you've been to any of the Machine Killer tour dates, featuring Static-X, Sevendust and Dope then you've seen Lines of Loaylty live and you already know that this is a band turning heads, and making bodies groove. They have a heaviness, a groove, and catchiness all rolled into a big sound very rarely heard from a three-piece band. Hailing from Southern Wisconsin they got their break during the pandemic and haven't looked back. Lead singer and guitarist Glenn "Nubz" Morrison (just wait until you hear how he got is name) of the band Lines of Loyalty is here on the latest episode of Cutter's Rockcast. 

Ryan McCombs is the lead singer of Drowning Pool, but he is also the lead singer of Soil. Seems like a lot, but if anyone can do it, it's Ryan. Drowning Pool just started the next leg of the Snafu Le Tour with co-headliners Saliva, and Ryan gives us a taste of playing this tour with their good friends in Saliva, including why it's called the Snafu Le Tour. But what about the possibilities of new Drowning Pool music? We find out on this episode of Cutter's Rockcast. 

Landon Tewers is just one of those creative types but in all the best ways. The Plot in You was his vision from the start after coming out of another band 15 years ago, but he's been able to do this, do some solo records all while producing and recording on the side for other artists. They have a new series of EP's, two of them are out with a third on the way soon and it's time to have a lengthy sit down with one of the best pure songwriters of the metal core generation.
