Tuna on Toast with Brett Gurewitz Bad Religion Epitaph Tuna on Toast with Stryker

    • Entrevistas musicales

This episode is an amazing education on the history of Bad Religion, Epitaph Records, the punk rock scene and the man himself Brett Gurewitz. 
Before Brett joins the show, it starts off with Stryker explaining why he thinks he's going off the deep end (mostly because of his old dog and old pillows)
When Brett Gurewitz joins Stryker, they talk about the forming of Bad Religion in high school and how Brett, Jay Bentley and Greg Graffin met.  Brett discusses everything from how they got their first radio spin on KROQ with Rodney on the Roq, to their first tours, to creating the record label Epitaph Records. Brett also tell Stryker about when Fletcher from Pennywise told to him to sign a then new band called Blink 182.
Brett discusses with Stryker the thought process of testing the major label waters, and why for a time Bad Religion did sign to a major.  Brett also shares the strategy and benefits to giving the music away for free to people like Kelly Slater and Tony Hawk (surf videos and video games).
Brett shares the story of how as the owner of Epitaph, he "effed up" with The Vandals, he talks about the lesson he learned and how he made it right with the band.  Brett talks honestly about his sobriety and the events in his life that lead him to living a sober life.
In this interview, Stryker and Brett also discuss the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame (not in yet) and being on the cover of Rolling Stone (it almost happened).
This episode is full of great stories, music education, and lots of inspiration.  Hope you enjoy!
