  1. Bobby Hambel (Biohazard)

    1 DAY AGO

    Bobby Hambel (Biohazard)

    This was one episode of The Brooklyn Blast Furnace Podcast that I honestly never thought would happen. My guest this time around is one of the founding members and legendary guitarist of Biohazard, Bobby Hambel, aka Bobby The Handball. Bobby hardly ever does interviews or podcasts, so for him to take the time out to sit with me for an hour and a half was ridiculously cool of him. We go way back to even before the formation of the band when he had a project called "Rattlehead". We then go to meeting Anthony Meo (RIP) then Evan Billy and Danny Shuler. We touch on the early days of touring, the first record, and 32 years of Urban Discipline. From the very beginning until now, a new record being recorded and paying tribute to several friends that have passed throughout the years. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did doing it. Much Respect. Support: Generation Records 210 Thompson Street West Village, NYC Intro: Phil LoCastro & Joseph A. Cassar Intro Visuals: Marc Kutik Edits: Tim Anderson Jr. and Nick Light

    My guest on the podcast is someone I've been wanting to speak with for a long time. singer for Detroit hardcore bands, H8 Inc. Ladies and gentlemen, BEAST!

I hope you all enjoy this one. Rest in Peace, Darrel Maniac!

    Back with another episode of The Brooklyn Blast Furnace. This time around, I have my friend, Mike Valente on. Founding member and guitarist for Brick By Brick. He also founded the Extreme Music Awards, which will hold its 2nd annual award show on January 10th, 2025, at Empire Live in Albany, New York. We talk some Brick By Brick history and their upcoming EP, which will be released by Upstate Records. How he got the idea and created the Extreme Music Awards, and he delves into the decade-long pseudo-feud with Chris Jericho from Fozzy.

    SKAM DUST (Rap Metal King. Son Of Skam. Skarhead)

    After a couple month hiatus, a new episode of The Brooklyn Blast Furnace is available now. I spoke to my guest at the Nighthawk Cinema at the Vinnie Stigma book release party and set this up. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you... SKAM DUST. He came to Bay Ridge from the Lower East Side to talk shit in my living room. We talk about his recent, thirty day tour in Mexico, his upcoming tour in Chile, and his new record that should be out in the coming months. We're all over the place on this one, which is what I expected. We speak on how he always seems to find himself in random places and unique situations to say the least. SKAM rules!

    Rob Castoria (Metal Storm. Maniac Rise. Merauder)

    After several weeks and a much needed vacation, the podcast is back. My guest is, Queens native, international sex symbol and a guitar God. He shredded for Metal Storm (Queens) the short-lived NYHC band, FUSE, wrote, composed and played guitar and bass in Maniac Rise, toured with Merauder and filled in for a leg of an Agnostic Front tour, filling in for Craig Silverman. He also recently played several songs for the Leeway Tribute set in honor of Eddie Sutton. We go back to when he was a kid all the way up to the present. A couple of hiccups with technology in the beginning of this, but we made it through it, and this turned out to be a really good episode. Enjoy. Respect.

  6. The Return of Jeff Altieri (Enrage)

    JUL 5

    The Return of Jeff Altieri (Enrage)

    It's been over five years since Jeff was last on the podcast. We both figured it was long overdue for him to come back on, especially after the tribute show that I put together in memory of Eddie Sutton in which he took part in. We talk all about the show, hardcore and metal, and go into old school wrestling. We discuss everything from Lentil soup to Dom DeLouise and new Enrage material that has been recorded. Jeff is always fun to sit and chew the fat with. This time was no exception. Enjoy.

  8. Michael Scondotto (Inhuman. The Last Stand. Confusion)

    MAY 27

    Michael Scondotto (Inhuman. The Last Stand. Confusion)

    My guest on this episode is someone I've known for over thirty years. Singer for Brooklyn hardcore bands, Inhuman and The Last Stand and bass player turned singer for Confusion... Michael Scondotto. We go way back to the early 90s hardcore scene when we first began to go to shows. the early days of Confusion, Nobody's Perfect, Lament, Life Of Agony, Merauder, Patterns, and several more. The days of L'amours, Coney Island High and Wetlands. It was a unique time in New York City where the hardcore scene was relatively new and thriving. Michael recently had the Confusion discography re-released on vinyl through Generation Records, which is a must-have if you're a collector. We go from Confusion to the formation of Inhuman, our love of horror movies and the birth of The Last Stand. So, sit back, relax, and listen to a couple Brooklyn Bastards take a walk through the past and present state of hardcore. Enjoy.
