Man lives in the sunlit world of what he believes to be reality. But there is unseen by most an underworld, a place that is just as real but not as brightly lit, a dark side. The following contains images of graphic violence. Viewer discretion is advised. ...given moment of the night. ...given moment of the night. Just 19 and charged with murdering a man, Miranda Barber already risks the death penalty. Now though, she's reportedly admitted killing a whole host of people across the United States as part of a satanic cult, saying when I hit 22, I stopped counting. The satanic cult in this city has been casting satanic spells on me for four, three, four days. I'm exhausted. I came home. I found out that my mom was the ringleader, and she was trying to kill my daughter. ...satanic.

One of Mexico's biggest drug lords has been arrested. Joaquin Guzman, better known as El Chapo, was captured in a joint operation between Mexican Marines and the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency. He is the alleged head of the Sinaloa cartel. El Chapo is wanted in the U.S. on federal drug trafficking charges and last year was named public enemy number one by the Chicago Crime Commission. Police caught up with him at a hotel in Mazatlan, Mexico. We are Marcos satanicos, old and young Black blessing, silver bar A black mass for the king of the world We cut the dust, the bar of my soul Let the black be killed, and the fire be dead Marcos satanicos, trafficking drugs Let the black be killed, and the fire be dead Marcos satanicos, trafficking drugs Let the black be killed, and the fire be dead We are Grinch Avengers! Unless I wanna slow down I bet you all those fucks at the man of war show were pretty disappointed I can't get all coked out After paying 100 bucks You know what, don't get me started on that Lemme, Lemme get the introduction going Alright, Los Angeles, I can't believe you paid 100 bucks to go see a bunch of dudes in fucking fur underwear You're out of your fucking mind Alright, you're listening to the very mech, Chippy Kip show, America You better fucking, uh, uh, hold your white lies You better fucking, uh, uh, hold your white lies There might be a shortage for a while. Cocaine is America's cup of coffee, you see. Let me introduce to you the one, the only, the very fucking interesting. Lost Johnny. It's good to be here. Are our sound effects working? No, that was actually my voice. All right. How you doing there, Lost Johnny? I'm pretty good, dude. It's Sunday afternoon. It's lovely, dry, as fuck here as our droughted California weather is right now. Pretty bad. How do you feel about the capture of Chapo Guzman? You know, I'm kind of ambivalent about it. I mean, it's just one of those, it's like Saddam Hussein. You got to find someone. They're going to put him on a pedestal like, look who we got. You know what really bothers me? And then you can still buy Coke somewhere down the street from here. Oh, dude. It's not even an issue. You know what? That's irrelevant. That's just the whole propaganda to make you think that shit's happening. And there's, trust me, the whole fucking system. Within. The United States and Mexico are catered around drug trafficking. But what bothers me is the fact that in the media, they're saying, they're portraying it as DEA and Mexico Marine Task Force. Oh my God. When in reality, you have black special ops that are, I've been saying this for fucking months. I know. By the way, if the MTA bus on the way home blows up, it wasn't an accident. Salvador and Mike, you're going with me. But, you know, it's serious. It's serious. I was telling Salvador and Mike this before we started. Okay. Because, you know, he's been literally portrayed as, like you mentioned, like in Osama bin Laden, you know, hiding out in the jungle somewhere with an army. Listen, the guy's smart. He knew what was going on. There are special ops, American special ops out there hunting him. Yeah. Okay. For him to be captured in a hotel. Come on. Because he knew his days were numbered, bro. You know what I mean? You get some fucking CW. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. do that. They're not going to send the U.S. Marshals in there. They're not going to send the fucking Border Patrol. I mean, come on. Be real. It's just too, it's like the way the game plays in all the neighborhoods. When you get too big, the real boss comes in and checks you, and they bring in another humble fucker, because that flow ain't stopping. You know what I mean? Like I said, cocaine is America's cup of coffee. As noted in Blood and Blood Outbound. One of my all-time favorite movies. You know, this whole week has been very, very troubling. I say that every fucking Sunday. But no, really. I mean, dude, you gotta think the stuff that's going on in Ukraine. All that revolution. Revolution is all over the world. Venezuela. Shit's going down, man. It's going down for reals. Venezuela, you know, they're fucking getting up. They're showing the example. No one gives a fuck here in the United States. All they want to do is bitch and complain. Oh, the Olympics are on. Oh, shit's going down in Russia, too. You know what was funny, though? On Friday I was hanging out with my significant other. And we were watching the gold medal, you know, presentation. And, you know, I forgot who that Can someone punch up who that chick's Again, Mikey's like, I don't know. I don't know how to type. I don't know. I'm a computer. What sport? The chick that got the gold medal, man. I'll bring it up. The only thing that was funny is I was hanging out with Iron Mike at our own location. Yeah. And the live feed, you could see a mean herpes cold sore. Hands off, Jenny. Did you happen to watch that? No? She's like, fuck no. I have a life. Yeah. Dude, they're giving her the gold medal. And on her lip, she's got this huge super fucking herpes cold sore. I'll get back to you and tell you who this fucking young lady was. Oh, my God. I thought that was fucking really funny. That sounds like a figure skater or something like that. She sucks some wrong dick in her dick. I know. It's Russia. It's a dirty spot. No, she was an American. She was an American, you know. But anyways. Whatever. It was really sad because how do you pronounce this? I might mispronounce this. Bob Casali? Casal. From Devo. Devo. Dude. Bummer. Can we play? Play some Devo there. In remembrance. I mean, it's just tragic, dude. I know we're at that age where these type of figures that we grew up with and that we bond with and we recognize with. But at 61? I know, man. I'm fucking 43. That's not that far off, man. I mean, you gotta think Joey Ramone, Johnny, they didn't make it to, they barely made it to 50. Yeah, that was a real bummer, man. Sucks, man. I was lucky enough to see well, the one and only time I saw Devo was when they played Freedom of Speech in its entirety. That was fucking cool, man. I noticed you didn't invite me to that. Because I could not afford another ticket. Do we have any Devo? Can we play that? Just a fact. Just a fact that he passed away at 61 and I believe it was heart failure. Yep. Jesus. You know, the capture of Chapo Guzman and the death of Bob Casali, they just I mean, there is a God in this guy. He's just really making it clear. Jimmy Cabs, fuck you. Your gagging days are officially over. You're done. I had someone over. By the way, I appreciate the gesture. I had someone close to me give me some social Peruvian fucking devil's dandruff. You know, thinking, because you know, obviously they're unaware that I no longer partake in that activity. By the way, I hold very monumental gold medals in that sport. From 1986 to 2000. He did a triple Lundy. But when they gave me that, I'm like, dude, I don't gag anymore. Are you out of your fucking mind? At this age, I can have a stroke and be talking like Subdor Mike and that ain't going to be happening. It's sad. We wish obviously the Casali family, we send them our best regards. I love Devo, man. I don't give a fuck what anybody says. And it's unfortunate because the drummer that we're hearing now, he passed away about a year ago, too. Cancer, right? Yeah. The the the! The original drummer from Devo. Sad, dude. It's crazy. There's a lot of disturbing stuff that's happened this week. Obviously, everybody's talking about the serial killer in Pennsylvania. Chester Farnsworth, what's going on over there in your homeland? What's happening in Pennsylvania? This is very interesting. Freak show. This individual, along with her husband, they would place an ad in Craigslist. See, you know what? I was having a very, very intimate conversation with somebody about, you know, how now I'm involved and I'm actually being mature in the relationship that I'm in. Yep. But when I was fucking around, I never went on Craigslist to look for pussy. Like, dude, who does that? Tony. Chester. Well, you know what? This is a warning for all of you that want to find love on Craigslist. Apparently, this couple, they would put, they would place an ad that the chick was looking to fuck and then you show up and you meet her and then they kill you. Yeah. Right? So, I mean, we, I think we have, like, a news feed of that. Let's play it, Jenny. Just 19 and charged with murdering a man, Miranda Barber already risks the death penalty. Now, though, she's reportedly admitted killing a whole host of people across the United States as part of a satanic cult, saying, when I hit 22, I stopped counting. Psychiatric tests are to be carried out on Barber and her husband, Elliot, who's jointly charged with murdering the man in Pennsylvania. A local newspaper says in an interview in prison, she confessed to a six-year killing spree. She was very, very well-spoken, very mild-mannered, very polite. I mean, she was very polite and very just soft, very soft. And she never hesitated in anything she said. In December, the couple pleaded not guilty to killing Troy LaFerrara, whose body was found dumped in an alley. Miranda Barber's now reportedly admitted slaying the 42-year-old, who's said to have answered a bogus advert she placed online offering sex for $100. Oh my God. Jesus Christ. Sex for $100. Sex for $100. You end up being fucking brutally murdered. So, again... Dude, if you're gonna go on Craigslist, get a fucking refrigerator. Get those concert tickets. I got my job from Craigslist. Don't get a piece of ass, dude. Come on. Listen. Where do I begin? I mean, have some common sense. Craigslist and trying to fuck... Don't mix. Don't mix. Tony, don't go on Craigslist. I don't want to see you fucking, you know, chopped up somewhere. Another very disturbing thing that happened this week was here in Los Angeles, for those of you that are not from Southern California and you're freezing your asses off, the sentencing of the two individuals that beat unmercilessly the San Francisco Giants fan. Oh, Brian Stowe. Yeah. Louis Sanchez and Marvin Norwood. They were sentenced. Judge George Lamel was not only... fucking brutal, but as you know, Los Gianni, it's very rare for me to really have any compassion for what's going on. You know, I tend to have a whole narcissistic fuck the world, you know. Sure. But I was very moved when this case first arose. The fact that you go to a Dodger game and you get beaten to the point where you're physically damaged. This guy is, by the way, permanently brain damaged. Yeah, and there's a lawsuit. pending with the prior owners of Dodger Stadium, and I support the family of... what's this guy's name? Brian Stowe. I support that lawsuit because it's true. These guys, the owners, prior to the new ownership, they're out buying all this lavish property and living the life, but meanwhile, they're cutting back on the stadium. I noticed it, you know, as you know, Salvador and Mike resurrected my Dodger fucking fascination with it, but there was that period where I wasn't going to Dodger games. I'm like, fuck no. It's a bunch of hooligans over there. It's true. You know what I mean? And here's... Here's this poor guy who was a paramedic. He was beaten to death, or almost beaten to death, physically damaged permanently. Just because he was wearing the other team's jersey. Yeah, I mean... Let's put that in perspective, people. I mean, you know, there's a dude from the Razor that I as a Giants fan, that even I wouldn't want him to see getting beaten that bad, but heads up, Jenny, play that soundbite, please. You not only ruined the life of Mr. Stowe, the obvious victim in this matter, but of his children, his spouse, his family, his friends, his friends, you know, this, from what I know of Mr. Stowe, he's an individual who was very decent. I mean, that is shown by the line of work he did, and that was a paramedic. He was only trying to help people. One day, you're going to be released, and that's probably first and foremost on your mind, when am I getting out? And Mr. Stowe will forever be trapped in the medical condition that you, you caused him. And only because of the love of his family, may be able to manage this. It was obvious that he was incapacitated, but yet you continue to hit him on the head and kick him in the head, which tells me, and I can only reach one conclusion from that, that you're complete cowards. Even now, with your smirks, I'm talking about Mr. Sanchez, not so much about Mr. Norwood. You show no remorse whatsoever. No remorse to the family here. And that is something that is also unfortunate. Oh, man. Is that brutal? And the fact that the guy's sitting there, in front of the family, smirking like, whatever, homie. Whatever dog. Whatever, homie. I don't give a fuck. I mean, it's really disturbing. And the fact that we have to live in a society with people like this. And you know what? Let me tell you something. For every one single, I don't even want to say fucking normal, but for every one single decent person, you're surrounded by fucking thousands of fucking animals. And you know where all this stems and all this comes from? Mexicans. Salvadorans. No. It comes from the fact that we are losing and disconnecting. We're completely isolating ourselves. We're hiding in our homes. We're letting these animals run free, when in reality, all it really takes is for us to really just come back and say, no! If I want to go to a fucking Dodger game, you know people were watching this guy getting beat, and they were just walking right by. Yeah, like, that sucks for him. Oh, well, fuck him. I'm going to fucking Sam's Hop Road. Look at some tits. You know, this is bullshit. If fucking 50 or 100 or 200 Dodger fans would have pounced on these two motherfuckers, it would have sent the message, and you know what? Maybe this poor guy wouldn't be fucking damaged permanently like this. Not even 200. Boss Johnny, you go to Dodger games. You know fucking martial arts. Why didn't you jump in there? I wasn't at the game. I was eating a hot Dodger duck. Fuck Salvador Mike? I was in the cheap seats. Oh, forget it. I've seen what you've been smoking lately. Actually, I was in the good seats. That's why he got beat up, because he was in this shitty fucking... upper deck seats. So... You know what, man? And the fact that people are saying, well, you know, justice was served. No, it's not. No, it's not. That's why, I mean, listen. There's a lawsuit pending. I know that there's this huge frenzy of Dodger mania. I am part of it. I'm the poser one, though. I admitted that a couple months ago. But still, you know what? When it comes to court and you're in that jury duty, do the right thing. That's all I got to say. Alright. One more last thing that really bothered the fuck out of me. As you know, all three of us here are heterosexuals. Yes. Okay, we love vagina. Hands off, Jenny. We love vagina. Love it. We love vagina. I love chlamydia. I love women. But here's the deal. It's 2014. Okay? Not only... And we're living in the United States of America. Alright? I'm born and raised here, so don't give me none of this fucking illegal alien backlash shit. Okay? I'm an American citizen. For those of you that know me personally, you know how involved I've been and how in some respects, I'm actually a hero, but not to make it about me, which I always end up doing. Here's the deal. Get out of here. We have a constitution. Okay? We have amendments that give us the freedom. This is why the world... Inalienable rights. Right. Inalienable. And I've been ranting and raving that we've been, you know, been asleep at the wheel and that they're slowly eroding. But in Arizona, there's legislation where they want... If it passes, and it's disguised under the religion. So, I don't like cock. So, Charlie Ziegler, stop fucking sending me flattering messages. But anyways, I don't like penis, but I don't have anything against... If you like to suck cock in the privacy of your home, if you like to lick vagina, same-sex vagina... Who cares? Who cares? It's 2014. If you're a Jesus Christ God, you know what? More power to you, but keep it in your home. Yeah. Keep it in your own little... Don't... It's not like you see straight people fucking in the street. How can I be the voice of reason, Los Yachty? That is frightening. How is that possible? Frightening. What is going on with Arizona? First of all, you and I knew that something was up in Arizona in that water when we were dealing with that other station. Yes. Where that guy over there... Oh, my God. I think it's the heat. It's the heat. It's just so dry. It's the desert. I mean, they still have that kind of Wild West mentality. Super conservative. I don't know. It's between Arizona, Florida, and Texas. They're just the shittiest states in the country. Wow. In terms of like, everything wrong, everything with progress. You know what? Hands off, Jenny. Play that soundbite, please. This is disturbing. Explain your biggest fear about this law, this bill, if it passes. Well, I let there be no doubt about what this bill does. It's going to allow people to discriminate against the gay community in Arizona. It goes after unprotected classes of people, and we all know that the biggest unprotected class of people in this state is the LGBT community, and the supporters of this bill, the Republicans on the floor yesterday, admitted as much. And if we were having this conversation in regard to African Americans or women, there would be outrage across the country about this. But right now, this is targeted towards the gay community, and the far right views that as okay, and it's simply not acceptable. It is not acceptable. Unacceptable. In Afghanistan, there are troops that are under fire. We have fucking a captive that's been there since 2009. And let's also mention the canine. Some, I mean, hundreds, and thousands, hundreds of soldiers have been killed. Thousands have been wounded. They're coming back maimed and fucked up. We are supposed to be the leaders of the free world. We're supposed to have this moral attitude where this type of shit does not happen. If Jesus Christ tells you that fags should die, then there's something wrong with that because you're supposed to love everyone. Love your brother. This is ridiculous. The separation of church and state. I am not a homosexual. I may look like it. I may act like it, but I am not. Listen, there is no reason for you to interpret what your own beliefs are into law because it wasn't that long ago, Lost Johnny, that they were saying the same thing about blacks. Very true. Okay? Okay? That doesn't exist no more. Now there's legal repercussions where if you feel that way and you bring that into society, you're going to lose your fucking house. And I'm going to gain a house. Okay, now here's the deal. Why is it that it's okay to bash on gays? It's not. Okay? This is we're back in the 50s, man, with the civil rights. I don't suck cock, but still, if you like to do that, more power to you. Have at it. You know what I mean? So Arizona, get with the times. What the fuck, dude? Get with the times. You know, stop cranking the fucking Motley Crue over there. Stop making crank. Yeah, you know, fucking wear a hat because obviously the fucking sunlight is affecting you over there. It's just getting to you. Drink some water. Hydrate. Yeah. You're out of control. For my rainbow warrior brothers, stay strong. Here's another thing. Just because I support you doesn't mean that I want your penis in me. So don't tell me how you want to have me fart in your mouth, too, because that's part of the problem. Let's digress, counselor. We played some songs and one of them, I'm a big fan of, Bong Ripper. Oh, I love that record. Satan's Worshipping. The name of that song is called Satan. Not too far from the mark. Let me say this real quick. We dedicate that to our own Chester Farnsworth because he's actually going to go and see Bong Ripper. Ooh, I'm kind of jealous. Very nice, right? Yeah. After that we heard Brujería from Matando Güeros. Narcos Satanicos. I love that record. I never get tired of listening to it. I'm pretty sure that was shout out to our friend El Chapo. Yeah, and you know what? I don't care what anybody says. El Chapo is still intelligent. It's better to be arrested and be alive than to be taken out by a fucking sniper bullet. That's right. Hello, you know, Christopher Dornan. Yeah. Alright. Hands off, Jenny. Let's get you some music. Hit it! ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...! ...<|nn|><|nn|><|nn|><|nn|>!! You think you're like a focus in a cage When you are dying Out there is a box you've made into a hat You think I'll let it go You're mad You've got another thing coming You've got another thing coming That's right Here's where the talking ends Well this will, this will not That'll be some action spent Drive all the calling on my shots I got an ace card coming down the rest It's a few sit around with a sugar with a brain This is a nine-foot and you better think again Out there is a box you've made into a hat You think I'll let it go You're mad You've got another thing coming You've got another thing coming You've got another thing coming In this world we're living in We have our share of sorrow And so now it's gone given And we're burning you to fire Out<|nn|> We'll be right back.

But I can't wake up. I'm falling behind. I'm falling behind. My head was dizzy and my vision was not clear. My soul was tired and my ears, they couldn't hear. All of a sudden, he appeared.

When I left, she was still breathing. Well, that's good. I stabbed her three times, and she should have died. She was still breathing. And I don't know what happened to her afterwards, and I don't know where they took her or what exactly happened, but she was the Antichrist. She did not die. But I still remember Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go.

songs And I'm like I'm like I'm like I'm gonna show you Locally and nationally Oh I'm sure man Radio show Every day Every day It's actually You know it goes to show you And I'm being sincere It goes to show you really How mentally damaged I am And how unprofessional I am Because I vent I The frustration 98% of the submissions that I get Are bands that are unoriginal Uncreative Boring Poser And they're supposed to be underground bands Right This is why When I find a band That really In my criteria And you know what Let me go even further Because I don't want to sound Hateful and negative If you have the balls To get To be creative And form a band And write music You know what Don't listen to what I say Even though I've been in the scene 30 years And I think I know what's up And people follow me But still You know Don't listen to anybody Do your thing You know what I mean Because there are so many bands That have proven The so called critic wrong That have gone Global successfully But for me I'm not saying They've gone successful But for me I've always been An underground guy This is where I dwell Like I'm the high seniority Underground guy And if you're claiming To be underground I can pretty much point you out Especially here in Los Angeles Yeah It's frustrating What I admire about you Is the professionalism That you have I never see you vent Or talk shit about the shitty bands That want to play your shows I never see you talk shit I mean how do you do with that How Are you doing yoga Or what Are you looking for pointers here What's going on Yeah As you can see I'm wearing a fuck Jimmy cap shirt Man that guy But He's a dick Yeah Total jerk off You know how uncomfortable It is when you go to a show And like 95% of people Are looking at you like a dick I don't know what that's like But you know I know So how do you deal with that Because your shows always To get back to you Your shows always have Not only the credibility factor But they also have The real genuine Underground vibe to it Like I've never seen A failure show Where I was like I'm going Why is Ryan fucking Backing this band Every band that you've brought To Los Angeles Every local band That you've put on the bill Truly underground Thank you man I appreciate that I'm being sincere Yeah Fuck Jimmy Caps though And I mean that's what it is For me I You know This is a passion pursuit Like you said You know I have a full time Full time gig And I Are they hiring over there Yeah Oh man You're just piggybacking me To death over here But Yeah so You know Any of these shows I have limited availability To do these things And I have a certain Level of involvement And effort That I want to put into something Because if I Put You know My My stamp on it I really have to I have to have my heart And soul in there You know Do you do it as a fan Yes As a music fan Exactly Or do you do it as a promoter No I do it as And I You know I jokingly say this But I'm really serious I have a selfish endeavor I mean When I book these shows It's I really want to see these bands And I want to see them And experience them In the way that I ideally Would want to experience them And then I just When I do those things My hope is that Some other people Enjoy that You know And they And they And they see And they're like Oh wow you know There's like cool memorabilia From the show That this guy like Yeah Got these cool artists together And made these prints And you know The bands are playing And they're super killer And some of them You know They're making this value To a certain extent You know Like whatever You know Like Lightning Stories They got the whole like You know Look and feel Amazing band To their band You know And and There's just a lot That goes That goes into that And giving them the right platform To do it on So people can actually Watch these bands Who are great bands But not have to see them Necessarily Where they can't flourish In their sound And and performance Like they have The right grounds To break out All of a sudden, there's an abundance. All these fucking promoters have popped up. I mean, I've been around 30 years, like I mentioned. And I've seen this influx come and go. But all of a sudden, within these last three to four years, Lashani, you go out as much as I do. All these promoters have popped up, right? And you can just really, they've saturated the scene to the point where it's frustrating, ridiculous. Because you can just see the unprofessional, immature, self-centered. They just want to get the dough. I mean, even when they announce, like, hey, I'm having a show. Anybody wants to play? It just goes to show you, like, no one gives a fuck about the bill. A lot of times when you go to these shows, maybe there's like one band you want to go see. They're not running on time. Everything's all lax. Everything's all fucked up. And what it really does is it gives a bad name to Los Angeles. And credible, real, sincere, honest promoters like yourselves. And there's others I could mention. You know what I mean? It really fucks up the pool. Would you agree with that? I mean. You're a nice guy. You don't want to comment. You don't have to comment. No, it's not that. It's, I feel, and, you know, even to myself, when I first started doing it, man, I mean, I probably was lumped in that category. No, you weren't. I've been following you for a long time. Well, you know, and. Because you care. Yeah, but. You know, my professionalism has had to grow over the years because at first I, you know, I didn't step into this because I necessarily wanted to start doing shows. I just saw the need for it. You know, these bands that were coming through didn't have anywhere to go, nothing to do. And it was a learning process, you know. And some of these people, I mean, I don't know, like you said, a lot of them are new. And I'll give them the benefit of the doubt that they're just still learning, you know. And it takes time. It takes a lot of time, man. And some people are quick studies. Some aren't. And it's just going to take a lot of trial and error. Is this guy amazing? He's on the ball, man. This is why I love fucking the Midnight Collector. You know what? That's very nice of you to say, man. It really is. I hate when I see promoters that are just out to make a quick buck, burn locations, okay? That's frustrating. Give a platform to a bunch of motherfuckers that have no respect for the stage and then claim it as LA underground. Yeah. All right? Bring in a bad element where in some cases, you know, law enforcement. has to intercede and people are hurt. I mean, that's the type of shit that I hate. And it really fucks up the few handful that I, I mean, if I really wanted a name on my wood, but I won't. I don't want anybody to get hurt. The few credible promoters that really go out of the way. This is why everybody should, Friday, February 28th, especially after this whole Manowar craze. $100, you're out of your fucking minds. February 28th, The Complex. I love The Complex. Love that place. No, seriously. The sound there is like you should. I mean, it's, it's for a place that Manowar would play, you know, for that kind of capacity of, of audience, you know? No, those dudes, those dudes are trying to cash in. No, no, no. I just mean like it's a, it's a venue that, you know, the sound system is so killer. You would think that it's like $100 for a show there and there's going to be a thousand people that could fit in this place. But it's, it's, it's a little less than 200 capacity, you know, and it's a few bucks to see killer bands in probably the best sound setting you could ever, ever want to see a band in. This is a must for those of you that claim to be truly underground. For those of you. For those of you that think that you're underground. You know what? I'm not going to fucking be a dick. Everybody should conjugate February 28th, The Complex. Shroud Eater. Is this their first Southern California appearance? Yes. Shroud Eater and Orb Weaver have never been past Central United States. I mean, this is a big deal for them. And I helped them set up this tour and because, you know, I want to see them get the fuck over here. Right. This is amazing. Shroud Eater. How do you pronounce that? Orb Weaver? Yeah. Orb Weaver. The Lightning Swords of Death. For those of you in Los Angeles. I should not even have to give a speech on this. This is one of the real, truly impeccable black metal Los Angeles bands. And Ancient Altar. This is their first show, correct? Yes. Amazing. It's their first appearance and it is going to be one for the books. Absolutely, man. Make sure you get out February 28th. Are we giving away a pair of tickets for this? Yes, you are. All right. You know what? Let's do it now because these teacupers are kicking in. And that Arizona thing really is really that legislation. It's really bothering the fuck out of me. Oh, man. All right. February 28th at Complex. Shroud Eater and Orb Weaver. This is their first Southern California appearance. Let's get, let's all come out from under our rocks and really show our true underground-isms. Let's also welcome back our own fucking local heroes, Lightning Swords of Death. And let's support the first show ever of Ancient Altar. I love Ancient Altar. These features, as you mentioned, prior members from Iron Mountain. So for those of you in this scene, you know this is going to be good. It actually is really good. I'm giving away a pair of tickets right now. Send me a message on Jimmy. Listen very closely. Send me a Facebook inbox message on Jimmy Cavs on Facebook. Don't text me. Don't email me. Don't come to my house. I know it's disturbing, but I have a 40 caliber Sig Sauer, so I'm cool. All right. Send me an inbox message. We're giving away a pair of tickets right now. All right. Let's get into some music. This band is a band that you are a part of. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Jenny hit it! Oh We Flashing Meat Meat Meat We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. We'll be right back. That's a really good example right there of some true, genuine underground music. The heaviest of the heavy, man. Lost Johnny? What did we hear? The heaviest of the heavy. No, we heard... We just heard Trapped Within Burning Machinery. The name of that song is called Drug Hammer. And it fucking felt like it, kids. Heavy, heavy shit. That's from a split with Bone Grease. Pigeon Wing. Pigeon Wing. That's the name of the song. Cut. Why are you fucking me up, dude? I love Lost Johnny. Why are you fucking me up? Well, I've named the song, so fucking there it is. Pigeon Wing. Bone Grease, correct? Yeah. And that features our... Very good friend here from Midnight Collective, Ryan Avery. Again, expressing his other creative side. How long has Pigeon Wing been around? I think we're closing in on almost four years this year. Oh, what a trip, man. So not only do you have the time to book these shows and extensive tours and bring these credible, real underground shows, but you also play in a band? Yeah. Yeah. How do you do that, man? It is very, very difficult. Supporting everyone else. I'm not a big fan of this band and trying to support my own. You know what? Everybody, give this guy a hand. Putting the work in, kids. All right, here's the deal. And you can tell, too, if you look back on it, I try not to prioritize myself over any other band either. No, no. You know what? I find that a very horrible thing to do. I don't want to separate you from the very few promoters, very few credible promoters that I endorse and support. But what I like about you the most, aside from you being a real genuine human being, and having good musical taste, is the fact that you really genuinely care about the audience that goes to your shows. You keep your prices reasonable. You find great venues. You're not just having shows anywhere. You find great, comfortable venues that are not only economically accessible to your audience, and then you really take the time, but you also take the time to book very good, genuine underground shows of all formats. Yep. This is why you get to see a little approval from Genie. Thank you, man. All right, Riverside, February 25th, the very first ever Southern California appearance of Shroud Eater, Orb Weaver, and then, of course, this band is amazing. You just heard that split, which is with Pigeon Wing, trapped within Burning Machines. This is a fantastic band from Moreno Valley. Yeah. Yikes. Yeah. The great musicians, truly underground. They're out there on their own. They don't participate in fucking that sport that is known out there. This is a great fucking band. And then here is the clincher. The Death Kings are also on this. I love the dick. Boom. Okay, so for those of you that are venturing, that are adventurous, get your ass off to Riverside. For those of you that are in that county, there's no reason to miss this. This is at Kim's Sports Bar. I've actually been to this place. It's so awesome. Oh, yeah. It really is. It's like a fucking bar. You get a burger, and then there's great music. It's truly underground. Oh, yeah. It's cool, man. And they're right there on the floor. And here's the deal. Riverside has an upcoming underground scene, man. Yep. There's people out there. Oh, yeah. Those trapped guys, man, they're putting in work because they want bands to want to go back out there because once upon a time, that place used to have a few venues, and there used to be rad bands that played out at Showcase Theater, for example, all the time. Rad bands. You know what? That name rings a bell. Yeah. So I'm going to be, I'm actually going to go out to this show. Shroud Eater, Orb Weaver, Trapped Within Burning Machinery, The Death Kings. This is going to be at Kim's Sports Bar and Grill in Riverside. Make sure you get your asses out there. This is a great bill. Now, let me mention this, because let's not forget, for those of you in Southern California that don't like to venture out to the wasteland, The Complex in Glendale, Shroud Eater, Orb Weaver, this is amazing right here in itself. The Lightning Swords of Death, which we're going to get to in a minute. They're out there. I love this fucking band. And also, Ancient Altar. This is also a Midnight Collective show. We just announced a pair of tickets for free. Send a message to me, Cabs, on Facebook. Inbox it. Don't text me. Don't come to my fucking house. Don't call my mom. This is how you get a pair of tickets. This is a great show right there, man. What more can you say? Proof is in the pudding right there. Proof is in the pudding, man. I mean, literally. Lightning Swords of Death, Swords of Death are playing this show. This is an amazing band here locally from Southern California, which I love these guys, but just the fact that they're still criminally underrated. Why aren't these guys on the Maryland Death Best? They released an album on Metal Blade called Baphometic Chaosium. Amazing. It was on our top 10. Both of our top 10 lists. Of 2013. That's right. Let's get into it. Let's talk to these cats. Hands up, Jenny. Hit it. I'm going to give the best. People what they want. Sensation. Horror. Shock. Send them out in the streets to tell their friends how wonderful it is to be scared to death.

Lightning Swords of Death from the record Baphometic Chaosium. The song of the same name. After that we heard a new song from my ears. Be Hexen. I'm going to try and say this slow and not fuck it up. Wrathful Dragon. From the record Nightside Emanations. Interesting title. After that we heard Iconophobos, one of our favorite bands. Jimmy Cab's Harbingers of Ruin. After that we ended the set with Zeit und Zeit. With the song Parabellum. Oh yes. Those are some great bands that are going to be playing for Signature Riff. They're playing a festival out there which I'll be talking about you, I'll be talking about in a bit. But I want to get right into my guest here. The Lightning Swords of Death. Obviously you're going to be playing the Midnight Collective show that we discussed. But real quick we were talking amongst ourselves during the break there. Some jibber jabbing. Let's get into it. And let me give my opinion before we get into it. I think that in America the underground American black metal scene has been stagnant, somewhat boring, somewhat non-creative, non-credible for a while. And that to the point where it has become repulsive to me being an underground guy. And then lo and behold there's a few bands which happens in every genre. It happens every decade. There are a few bands that rebel and truly come to their own and really bring out what the true integrity of being underground and rebellious and subversive is. And they rebel against the whole, you know, what is supposed to be cool and rebellious. They do the opposite. They do, they follow the, to be honest, they follow the true satanic principle of fuck everybody. This is what we do. I have been fortunate and I feel very privileged to have this relationship with you. First of all, let's introduce the Lightning Swords of Death. I'm Farron. This is Menno and Inverted Chris. Inverted Chris. I like that. Howdy. You've been on my show prior in another station. This is the first time that you've been on the Very Manic Jimmy Caps show here at Skid Row Studios. So welcome. Thanks for having us. Thanks for having us on. One of the things that I really admire and I respect about your band, as I mentioned before, is you follow your own philosophy, your own creed. You've separated even, not only here in Los Angeles, in the so-called underground black metal scene, nationwide. I would say you guys are literally the MC5 of the American black metal scene. And I say that sincerely. And let me elaborate. You don't follow trends. You don't give a fuck about the click. You do your own thing. And this is why this disturbs me so much. There's a festival here in the United States called the Maryland Death Fest, which is bordering similar to what Europe has in abundance. Different types of festivals. This is a credible festival here in the United States. They've had some amazing shows. But as I've asked you in our own personal conversations, why is it that you are not on this festival? I find it disturbing that you're slighted. I find it disturbing and offensive because the festival, the principle is to bring in true underground American and international acts. What the fuck? You're on a major label. You're on Metal Blade. It is strange, isn't it? Let's commence the conversation. I don't think we haven't I haven't been perhaps aggressive in pursuing the fest just because I don't, you know, they had a whole thing with like, you know, send us your demo or your CD. And a picture of the band. I just remember years ago when I first started thinking about maybe we should play a Maryland Death Fest. I saw into their website and I never did any of that because I don't like to fucking do that. And then we got a manager and I'm like, hey, you do that. But we never heard from them. And I kind of let it go. And I had suggested a couple times to our manager. I'm like, dude, what the fuck? Are we playing the Maryland Death Fest? All of our friends are there. Let's be honest here, Ferrin. I mean, you guys are not seeking any form of like publicity type events. You guys are very confident underground true musicians that you do your thing. You don't give a fuck. But at the same time, this is a credible festival. I can't bash it. I mean, it's a credible they have amazing shows. They have some of the best bands. And you should be a part of that though. And you know that those guys are truly underground guys. They know what's up with music. You know what I mean? So, I mean, why are you not a part of that? I don't know. I think I might maybe they've got a beef with us. I have no idea. Like, it's a very strange Are we pissing their cornflakes? I don't know. I don't know, man. I told you not to piss in anyone's cornflakes. Hey, don't try it. Don't not try it. It might be the missing ingredient. There's a little urine in your crispies. I mean, you've been affiliated. Listen, Jimmy, when we started Lightning Swords of Death, like before even these guys were in it, like black metal hadn't become something that Vice fucking Hipster Magazine was like, you know, making ironic statements about. It was still something where it's like, oh, we're gonna play black metal. We're probably not gonna play live. We're probably gonna alienate most of the audience. And we're just gonna spew our concepts about the occult and the and the hatred. And we're doing it for us. So the idea of playing festivals, the idea of of being on a label, the idea of doing anything, that shit was never on the fucking menu to begin with. It was more a personal thing. Our art comes out in that with that voice. And if you're gonna call it black metal, that's what it is. But that's that was the best platform for our creativity. So, you know, years go by and all of a sudden, you know, you can you can kind of be a fucking touring black metal band, which is something that we didn't expect. And weird things happen. And we got a lot of opportunities and a lot of fucking cool stuff happened with the band. So getting getting like angry or like feeling like there's some kind of fucking conspiracy against your band wasn't really part of our modus operandi. We were just like, I can't even believe we like put out three records with this band. Yeah. You know, and I don't want to make it seem like there's like this whole bitter thing because I know you guys really don't care about that. But for me and the reason why I approached you is obviously, you know, the premise of the show. I am the extreme true underground guy. I bring out the shit that that PR people hate. To me, I find it offensive in some degree. Whether they're doing it deliberately or not. I you know, if you're gonna have a festival that really is just taking not the shit that PR people hate. To me, I find it offensive in some degree, whether they're doing it deliberately or not. You know, if you're going to have a festival that really advocates true underground extreme music, I mean, there's no reason why you guys should have been excluded. No, they ship out people from across the pond, and we're a hardworking American band, a metal band. Very hardworking. And we've got a lot of releases, and we tour every year, and they've chosen to ignore us without any real excuse. Our manager talked to, I guess, Ryan is his name. Is that what you think? And he was like, oh, yeah, yeah, Lightning Sword. I don't know. We'll see if we have a room on them. I mean, I just, I think it comes down to, like, I just don't think they like us. Which is fine, because I don't give a fuck who likes my band. I don't give a fuck. I know, right? I've done art. This part wasn't on the radio, but yeah, I've done art for several posters for that show. But he, like, being in the, performing this kind of music, it goes with it. You don't give a fuck what anyone thinks. And if he doesn't get it, or if he doesn't think that we're important enough to be on his fucking trendy fucking festival, then he can go fuck himself. Oh, it's a good festival. It's a good festival, but metal, dude, you guys, I'm a brother of metal, and I love it, but... I love your honesty, man. I really do. It's trendy as fuck. Let me go even further. It's so trendy. Do you know that because we're called Lightning Swords of Death, I didn't want to name the band FNFMAL. We are called FNFMAL. We're from Los Angeles. We don't, we're not writing lyrics in dead languages. We're not trying to be Norwegian at all. We don't give a fuck about sounding like we're from Sweden. We're a bunch of guys that grew up listening to FNFMAL. We're fucking angsty punk rock, and it turned into a love for fucking black metal, and we've never started this band to show our worship for mayhem or a worship for fucking Dark Throne. Followers don't make good music. Yeah, yeah. There's plenty of people copying people, but we just did this because this is what comes out of us. Well, this is why you guys were on my radar. Not recently. I mean, as you know, we've had this relationship. We've discussed this on the prior show. I mean, you know, this is why. You got on my radar because I admire, there's very few bands like yourself, which, you know, let's mention a couple of them, like, you know, Ritual Combat, Valdor, et cetera. Valdor. Valdor. Great guys that follow their own path creatively and the philosophy of it. And this is what truly keeps the American black metal scene alive because there are so many repetitive, boring, copycat, cookie cutter. I mean, barely now, the whole panda fucking makeup thing is dying. Angry band. Thank God for that. Why? Why? Why is that? Why is that? Because it's bands like yourselves that come up and play and express what the true meaning of aggressive. I don't want to use black metal. It's the true aggressive extreme music. The true artistic factor of it. The true independence of it. And for me, this is what I appreciate. You know, we talked about the Maryland Deaf Fest. You said that you said it perfectly. You know what? We don't need it because you've been doing your own thing independently. And you know what? Real artists, that's what they do. Let me ask you this, though. You released an incredible record. Johnny, help me with the pronunciation. Baphometic K.O.Z. Well done. That's correct. You released an incredible video. The same title. Next. Very artistic. Very, very, very. I mean, just. It's arresting. It's like Rod Serling's. Wedge ring. Wow. That is. That man is my. No, seriously. I'm not being smart-ass. So, yeah. I like that. Thank you. I mean, Rod Serling would probably jerk off to that video. It's fucking amazing. Artistically. I could just see him. Dark art. It encompasses everything. And this is why I find it interesting that amongst my troubles or whoever I, you know, conversate with when they when I mentioned the term, the lightning swords of death, there's always this whole like still to this day, like a fear. Oh, yeah, they're great. But and I'm like, I, I interact with these guys all the time. You guys are all fucking genuine music lovers, human beings. What are they afraid of? I don't know. What is it? I mean, I shared with you the first time that I saw you guys. I mean, I'm afraid the fact that Mantle drinks way too much Mountain Dew. I just got back from the doctor and my blood sugar is actually perfectly fine. That's impossible. You're not. I'm sure it is. The past. I've shared in the past that when I went to go see the first time that I actually and I was sober, I actually experienced like this whole, you know, dark spiritual type of fucking, you know. Because we mean what we play and we say, yeah, that's not a big deal. You know, we kind of Jerry and I, Jeremy Roscoe, a.k.a. Love that guy. When we when we got it together, the whole lightning sword thing, like we kind of. You ever hear of Japanese no theater? Yeah. That was kind of the approach is just like you have all these guys that are dressed like pandas and and and pouring blood all over themselves where they play. But, you know, no theater is like Kabuki without the makeup. You know, they basically what they did was it was all about the horror of their expressions. They just be like, yeah. And they didn't need makeup. They didn't need they didn't need props or demons on stage. You just I believe that you can create. You can invoke a feeling of mystery and horror and revulsion purely on music and atmosphere without without chains and scarves and whatever the shit. Would you agree that because you're you're genuinely real artist. In other words, I like to claim that I'm an artist, but I'm really not. I'm just a dude that fucking, you know, finds cool shit and plays it for the public. You're a tastemaker. You create. You create it. Would you agree, though, that for the last, I would say, 10 years in the underground American scene that there's been this whole saturation of just non creativity, poser ism, follow ism. And do you would you also agree that this is what inspires you guys to become and create what you have done? I'm not going to say everything sucks because I will. All right. Go for it, Jim. Cabs. I find it disturbing that Manowar is charging $100. This is ridiculous. That's fucking ridiculous. Dude, I saw Manowar fucking 83 with at the country club and did it was like $10. The last time they were here, they played at the whiskey. Wait a minute. Just real quick. Just real quick. Which is their second strike. I need to direct a question to my bass player over here. Manowar, how much did you pay for Sade tickets? But that's different, though. Yes. Is it? It really is. Is it? It is. It is. Sade. So you're telling me that Sade's taboo is sweeter than Manowar's. Yes. Actually, I'm going to agree with you. Yeah. I saw. I saw. Because that's a whole other. That's a whole other. Listen. I saw pictures from that show and it was pretty fucking amazing. Listen, when you speak of like established artists like fucking Tom Jones, Sade, Sinatra, well, I mean, whatever, you know, Neil Diamond, whatever. There's an elegance to it. There's a true professionalism to it. There's credibility to it. Absolutely. Manowar. Manowar. Manowar's credible. Manowar's credible. Manowar's credible. I mean, not really. You know, Manowar is credible to a certain extent. You know what I mean? They've been around. Similar to you guys. Against the grain. Fuck everybody. True. But it comes to a point like now with this whole resurgence, with this whole new young generation. And I don't want to insult them because I don't want to be that old guy like, yeah, I saw Zeppelin in 73 at the forum. No. But there's common sense. There's common sense. There's common sense. There's common sense. There's common sense. There's common sense. There's common sense. There's common sense. Someone's blatantly ripping you fucking off and fucking you in the ass and you're like gleefully going, yes, that there's something wrong. And I think that's what's wrong with that whole thing. That's unnecessary to charge that much for a ticket to a metal show. And considering that the people that listen to metal are generally working class fucks. Dominantly. Can barely fucking afford their rent. To ask for the support of your band. For the support. For these people to not be able to pay the rent is just such a fucking douchebag move. And if that's a huge like metal faux pas for me to say that Manowar are douchebags for charging that much. Well, I remember. Come at me. How much were t-shirts at that one? Yeah. You're out like 150 bucks. You want to buy a t-shirt. You buy the ticket. And a beer. A couple drinks. You buy a couple drinks and a t-shirt. That's a $300 night. Yeah. Their shirts were probably 50 bucks. Yeah. Dude, imagine if you took some chick too. Oh. Oh, dude. Three more beers. Well, watch how I masterfully. Watch how I masterfully spin this. Midnight Collective is having an amazing show. February 28th at the Complex, which is an amazing fucking place. I'm not lying, man. It's comfortable. What a great beer selection. And tickets are only 50 bucks. God, I hope that. $50. That's the day I came in. My name is 50 bucks. That's 10. That's 10. Are you charging 50 bucks? Apparently, I should be. That's 15. That's 50 bucks. You can see the Lightning Swords of Death for $120. It does come with a meal. A meeting greet. Table service. A meeting greet. A filet mignon, actually. Shroud Eater. Orb Weaver. First time in Los Angeles with the legendary, incredible, and the real deal Lightning Swords of Death. And Ancient Altar, an amazing fucking band. First show from Ancient Altar. Exactly. How much? Very exciting. How much? 10 bucks. $10. For two bands that are coming all the way from Florida. Very reasonable. That's reasonable. Four amazing fucking bands. The amazing Florida. Let me emphasize this. Four amazing bands with two amazing local Southern California bands. $10. For those of you that went to Manowar, I don't know what to tell you. I don't know if you're aware of this, but Lightning Swords of Death actually went on the road with Randy and Sally from Orb Weaver long ago. When we was actually a Valder, Lightning Swords, and Gigan, which was their band back then. Wow. And it's a spectacle to watch the two of them shred. The musicianship is pretty much mind blowing. This is not only Jimmy Cab's strong seal of approval. It's a must. Mm-hmm. Yeah. And $250 per band, right? Yeah. There you go. Breaking it down. Doing the math for us. All right. Let's get into some music. Hands off, Jenny, with your lovely hair. You look amazing today. Hit it.! I'm telling you all that's broken I'm telling you all that's broken I'm telling you all that's broken I'm telling you all that's broken I'm telling you all that's broken I'm telling you all that's broken I'm telling you all that's broken I'm telling you all that's broken I'm telling you all that's broken I'm telling you all that's broken I'm telling you all that's broken I'm telling you all that's broken I'm telling you all that's broken I'm telling you all that's broken I'm telling you all that's broken I'm telling you all that's broken I'm telling you all that's broken I'm telling you all that's broken I mean, so many variables involve money, work time, knowing the right people to help us get there. And may I inject some midnight collective praise and worship? There you go. If it hadn't been for this young man, I don't think we would have been able to get this far, actually. Yeah, you know what? Let me say this real quick. I think that your band is incredible. I'm looking forward to seeing you play live February 28th at the Complex. Thank you very much. What an incredible fucking show. Shroud Eater, Orb Weaver, Lightning Swords of Death, and Ancient Altar. We're ridiculously excited. Do you feel that in this current time that we're in, I asked this of a band called The Mortals. It was also played for Midnight. Oh, yeah, yeah. We played with them in Miami. They're fucking great. Let me ask you this, and I don't mean to sound sexist, but do you find? Do you find yourself that when female-oriented underground extreme metal bands are playing, do you find any form of backlash or discrimination? Maybe not so much discrimination. I think there's a lot of hesitation, perhaps, in the beginning, when people don't really know who you are, where you come from, what you're going to play. You know what I mean? But I think once you start playing and people kind of get over the fact that, yes, you have a pair. Who fucking cares? I do. That is so well put. That is really so well put. Except you probably sit there and play with your tits, which is great. Would you agree that there's way too much emphasis on stupid shit like that? And really, at the end of the day, when a band gets up on stage and starts jamming, that's really what matters, right? Yeah, it does, obviously. But, I mean, you know, obviously, there's going to be some sort of interest in a way. Everybody, you know, everybody sees a woman. Obviously, it's not, it's a very male-dominated genre, you know? So, although now I've noticed that there's a lot more women involved in extreme music, you know, especially Doom, I think. A lot of vocalists. Yeah, absolutely. A lot of bands that are from sides of women, you know, like Mortal. And, you know, they'll fucking, they'll, they look like they're going to kill you, you know what I mean? Like, you don't fuck with them. No. And that's awesome. Yeah, I don't know. I don't, I don't know that's such a big, big thing. We haven't really dealt with much, you know. Every now and again, you get really dumb fucking comments. But, you know, it's not, it's not the norm, which is cool. I think a lot of people are past that. Let me address, let me be very forward with you. Because, I mean, even me asking you that is very stupid. But the reason why I asked you, though, is because. God, you're so dumb. Yeah, not really, for real. The Mortals made that very clear to me when I interviewed them. You know, she should get a shirt that says, fuck Jimmy Cabs. Oh, I'm going to give her a shirt that says, fuck Jimmy Cabs. Okay, good. Thank you. But, you know, the reason why I asked that is because I find it interesting, like, when a band in this genre gets on stage and they're setting up, right? Right. You know, and here in Los Angeles, it's predominantly, like, male-oriented. They're fixated on the physical, right? They're all drooling. Yeah, yeah. But then when they start playing. There's a transition that happens where, like. Yeah. It's like every male there is neutered. And then everybody is, like, in a Nazi cap headbang. You know what I mean? That's. Exactly. Well, Jimmy. That's the fun part. I think initially there's plenty of judgment placed on any band, really, that gets up on stage. You know, most people are so fixated on stupid shit like what someone's wearing or not wearing. And then immediately it's, like, fear geek shit. You know, like, oh, well, this Cabs. And I don't like this. And because I'm not in agreement with I hate fucking Ampag or whatever, you know, like, dumb shit. Let me ask. Everybody's already with that. Let me ask you this, though. How do you feel about bands or female-oriented or fronted bands? Like, say, for instance, like, you know, like Doro or or what other have you that they they they not only advertise and promote their sexuality, but they go overboard with, like, you know, the exposed titties and all that shit. How do you feel about that? I, you know, I don't know. I just be honest. We are real here. I am not of that new, like, thought where it's empowering to be a slut or whatever. You know what I mean? Awesome. Like Camille Paglia. I don't know. Not really. I'm you know, I'm older now. And when I when I grew up and I was part of now, like, that wasn't my thing. Like, you you own your shit. You own your sexuality. You're. You're comfortable with who you are. But I don't really necessarily feel that, you know, you should exploit yourself and fucking show your tits. You know what I mean? Like, if you're going to play your fucking guitar, play your fucking guitar. You know, like. Right on. Nobody needs to see your fucking nipples. Put them away. Show them to whoever you're fucking, you know? You know what? I don't mean to bash those artists, those female artists. But you know what? I appreciate. I appreciate that. Hey, you know what? That's good for them. And hey, if you get to see their tits, then who's winning? Right. You know what, though? I appreciate that. And I think that's just this is why. You are on my radar. Shroud Eater. They have a new. They have a new release called Dead Ends. Los Angeles and the rest of the world. Los Angeles. They are coming. This is a midnight collective show with the Lightning Swords of Death, Orb Weaver and Ancient Altar. The Complex. Feel free to tell us, Ryan Avery. Oh, yeah. Ten bucks for two amazing bands from Florida. Jimmy, you're coming all the way out here. About the women in metal thing. And like, are you saying that like men aren't used to getting screamed at by a chick? Because I think nothing is more natural to me as a man than than having a woman like menace him and scream venom. That's like my entire fucking life, dude. So I'm pretty sure. Just out of PA. Yeah. I'm going to be real honest with all of you. I mean, you know, I grew up in. In the metal scene were like, you know, like bands like Hellion and Bitch and they used a sexual. Well, it was great. I loved it. You know, but I mean, it's 2014. I think that I think that I think that it's I admire bands that. Have female members in them that they don't they're not relying on that sexuality. I think now in 2000 and I'm not bashing the bands that are around now. I don't want to mention names, but I'm not. No, I know. I mean, I. Talking about. But I think it's. It's like I think it's kind of like I think it's kind of like similar to like what you deal with in the black metal scene. Farron and line. So it's dead. It's done. I like seeing bands like Shroud. Either they get up and you know what? Oh, they have a fee. They have females. Whatever. Yeah. And they bash it out. Who gives a fat shit? Yeah. Yeah. There you go. It's all about the. Anyway, if you're fucking real, it's all about being real. Let's listen and let's listen to some Shroud. Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Lighting a shift in the wind Under the forewarning Impending disaster The tide rising faster A shift in the wind Under the forewarning guitar solo I'm a dead hero I am no one less No soul I'm a dead hero I am no one less guitar solo guitar solo guitar solo guitar solo guitar solo No soul I'm dead No soul I am no one less No soul guitar solo guitar solo guitar solo guitar solo Thank you.

Dude, Ryan, get him out here. Get him out here. My next task. No, I'm serious. I've heard that there actually is. That's why I'm asking a Floridian about this. Wow, I would love to see that. Me too. We're going to have to Google this shit. I'm really looking forward to seeing you out here on the West Coast. I'm really looking forward to seeing you in Los Angeles. I think what you're doing is fucking awesome. I love the new record. Thank you so much, man. Really appreciate it. I don't want to go into the whole sexist thing. I just had to ask that because it's obviously 2014. It's relevant. This is what I want to emphasize the most. You guys are truly real deal underground road dogs because you're on the road right now. We sure fucking are. You're out there with Orb Weaver and you're going to be playing here in Los Angeles with the Lightning Swords of Death and Ancient Altar. That's awesome. That's super special. Thank you. You know what? Someone that appreciates and recognizes it. Are you sharing a vehicle with Orb Weaver? Oh my God, no. You're not? Okay. They're caravanning. There's way too much shit to have to carry around. There's a lot of bodies and a lot of equipment. Have you guys ventured off? To Europe or South America? No, but we want to. That's definitely a long-term goal here. That's a whole different set of plans for God knows when. We're baby steps. We're finally going to fucking California. Let them get out here first before they go to Europe. You know what? I'm excited, man. I'm excited. Let me mention this show here. Tuesday, Hemp Sports Bar and Grill in Riverside. This is the fucking wasteland of fucking... It's like right out of Mad Max. Otherwise, you are in business. This is awesome. There's a lot of meth in Riverside. This is awesome, though. This is awesome because there's a fledgling true underground scene going on there, man. This is awesome. Shroud Eater, Orb Weaver, Trapped Within Burning Machinery. This is fucking one of the leading bands out of the Inland Empire. I love this fucking band. They're like one of the only bands out of the Inland Empire. You know what? This is the real deal right here. And the Death Kings. Make sure you go check out Shroud Eater on Tuesday at Hemp Sports Bar and Grill in Riverside. And let's not forget, of course, the monumental show here in Southern California. Shroud Eater, Orb Weaver, Lightning Shards of Death, Ancient Altar. This is at the Complex. This is Friday, February 28th. We're giving away a pair of tickets. Make sure you go and check it out. I want to thank you so much. I believe I mispronounced your name. Is it Janet or Jeanette? Whatever you want. Jeanette. You know what? I love you. You're cool. You can call me Dan. Call me whatever the fuck you want. I'm going to say it all Frenchy style when I see you. Jeanette. Jeanette. Oh, that's great. You're awesome. I appreciate you guys having me on and spreading so much love about us because, you know, we're out here for a reason, you know? Yeah, you know what? In all honesty, the fact that you're out touring, doing it old school style, man, that's fucking awesome. It really is. Any band that has the... The Big Deal. The Balls to get on the van and just go through this grueling United States. I mean, Lightning Swords, you know. You guys know. Oh, yeah. Right? Why the hell would you want to put yourself through this shit, right? Yeah, what are you saying? God, why? What's wrong with you? Just because we like the smell of musky balls. Oh, God. Musky balls. Yep. Ooh. All right. Yeah. I would have taken... I cannot agree with you there. But really, you do. That's all you need. He's awesome. He's awesome, dude. I love this guy. Gold Bond. How can people pick up your new record, sweetheart? Well, we are obviously selling it on tour. And we're selling online also. Our website is shroudy2rock.com. And we're on the Spacebase, Facebook, whatever bullshit, on the band camp. So, yeah. You can get stuff online from us. T-shirts and koozies and records and tapes. And hugs. Let me emphasize this. It's very important, especially here. For those of you that are going to these Southern California shows, it's very important to buy band merch. Please. Yes, it is. Please buy band merch. So, like, when I ask you for a free shirt, I hope there's, like, 10 dudes buying shit. But, you know, seriously. There you go. This is the survival to the underground bands. Buy them all. I'm going to give you a small tank top. You're going to have to deal with it. Oh, yes. You're doing a favor for all of us with that. There you go. I am going to objectify the fuck out of your tits. Yeah, speaking of tits, Jimmy's got some great ones. Oh, yeah. I'm at a seat cup right now. I want to thank you so much for being on the Very Manic Jimmy Cab Show. Right on. Thank you so much for having me. Shroud Eater. I'll see you guys soon. Yeah. Safe. Safe travels. This is a great band, dude. Shroud Eater. I'm stoked to play with them. Arb Weaver. Another great band. Lightning Swords of Death and Ancient Altar. Thank you. Thank you. February 28th at the Complex. You know what? I don't give a fuck what anybody says. All that hoopla about Manowar and you guys are paying $100? You guys are out of your fucking minds. If you paid $100 to be at that fucking ripoff show, you could pay $10 to see a really true, credible underground show. Yeah, a real show. You know, it fairs oils up, shows his muscles off. Totally. I'm greasing it from head to toe. He's got a smaller Speedo, too. It's way, way smaller. No soundproof curtains. We're thinking loincloths. Oh, there we go. There we go. You know, just let's digress real quick. All right, let's digress. We're going a little. We've been talking about man balls and loincloths. It's getting musky. No, really, really. Like, $100? Well, Shawnee, help me out here. Is it just me because I'm getting older? No, it's not you. It's me. It's disgusting. I mean, fucking curtains. Come on, man. It's not understanding their market. They're ignoring who their demographic is. Would you agree? Because you're an artist. No, they're raping their demographic. I think they're raping. They're raping their demographic. They're like, you know what? Fuck you guys. You've ignored me for decades. I'm going to rape it in now. And these young kids, they don't even know. They love it. You know like that. Do you remember like Pink Floyd, the wall of the movie when like the kids are walking into the meat grinder? Mm-hmm. That's what I phantom. That's what I hear a lot. Well, let me play devil's advocate here. On the other side. Please do. There's Man O' War. They're not a huge, huge band, right? They're probably not making millions and millions and millions of dollars from record sales because nobody is anymore. They're getting a little older. They're not, you know, in their 20s or 30s anymore. Trust me, bro. They're getting, they're familiar with Metamucil just like I am. So you're going to pick up rape as a hobby? Well, where else are you going to get day jobs because who would hire those guys? They're creepy. They're listening muscles. Come on. I'm actually looking for a job right now. So you see it? I'm unemployable too. Well, do you oil yourself up? How cool would it be if Man O' War was your personal trainer? There you go. That's actually a little easy. Sorry, guys. I can't take this job. I got three o'clock waxing. It's not happening. I'm not defending them either, but that's the only reason that I can think of why they would be doing that aside from being completely greedy assholes. Oh, yeah. But you know what? There comes a point in time where like, for instance, like you guys, you know, I hope you, if you don't agree with this, please, by all means, there comes a point in time when you're underdogs. There comes underground. And then let's just say, you know, you hit that pivotal point where the underground and this whole new demographic gets what you're doing. I mean, I get it. You want to be appreciative. And at the same time, you want to make some dough. But, dude, $100? I mean. No, it's ridiculous. It's ridiculous. How many shows is Man O' War doing in the States? Two. Two. Two shows? Two. Okay. That. That. I'm beginning to see a. Yeah, but even when we opened up for Immortal, they didn't charge $100. And they had to fly out from Norway. No, but they only did. They did sell their shirts for like $30. And let's mention that. You did open up for Immortal. Yeah, yeah. A couple years ago. I got the shirts. The shirts were roughly around the $30-ish. $30 shirts. Two. And how much was the ticket? $50? $50 that time. The time before, about $70. But it was way more worth it. It was $70? Abbott does the crab walk. I know. I know. I'm just saying. He does the crab mill. He does the windmill and the crab wall. I know. It's a combination windmill, crab walk, while playing guitar. You know what? I don't want to fucking ruin the experience for whoever went to Manowar and paid that. I'm sure it was awesome. I'm sure they had a great time. You know? Like, you know. Counselor, I just looked at the Manowar tour dates from the Pomona before. They played six shows. Oh, six. Okay. I stand corrected. All right. Now they're total douchebags again. It was two shows. I understand. You know, they need like, you know, millions of dollars. And that's like Sabbath tickets too, right? Is it? Blast? Black Sabbath charges like $120. That's Black Sabbath though, dude. That's Sharon. And she was born of greed. Yeah. But still. But still. Would you agree though? I mean, it's like. It's sad that it has to come to that. I would bitch and complain, but it's Sabbath. Manowar? Yeah. No, I can understand Sabbath even though I don't agree. It's slightly more. And you know what? Let me correct myself. I think. Let me correct myself. I think that any artist who has a following, whether it's credible. And. And. And. And. And. And. And. And. And. And. And. And. Now there's a resurrection. There's a responsibility, man. There really, really is. You should really appreciate the fact that the old school fucking dug your shit. They loved your shit. They're coming out to it. And then if you have this resurrection, there's like this new school. You know what? You should love that too, man. But there should be a responsibility. I agree. There should be some sort of like compassion. Because remember, when you were headbanging in your bedroom in the mirror, there was only you. And now there's like hundreds or thousands or millions. Be fair. Be fair. The young kids, they don't know what's up. I mean, I don't want to sound like a dick and talk shit about the young. They don't know what's up. They're in a frenzy, dude. Man, we're awesome. They don't know. Do you really think there's going to be a lot of young people at that show? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Mommy and daddy got to buy tickets, man. I would say 80% of those fucking people. Really? I would say that. I would say that. Are you going to? Dude, we're. Listen. Never even crossed my mind. You look amazing. I don't know what kind of fucking moisturizer you use. You look amazing. All you guys do. I don't know what kind of fucking exfoliator you use. But here's the deal. I know I wouldn't pay $100. Even if I had it, I wouldn't pay $100. I know you guys wouldn't. I know I didn't. Yeah. Right? Yeah. You know, it's a frenzy. Uncle Raskva did. That's right. Did he? Did he really? No, he did. He's recovering. I got to get. Yes. Oh, I got to get exclusive with that motherfucker. This conversation. Had he been here today instead of moving into his new apartment, this would be a totally different conversation. Very. You'd have some severe counterpoint. All right. Let's also mention Heavy Tuesdays. Heavy Tuesdays. Does that feature Raskva on a regular basis? Not on a regular basis, but both inverted crests. He paid $100. Yeah. And Raskva. And he could buy me a beer at Bootsy's. Mm-hmm. You can enjoy the DJ's styling. Sometimes him. Sometimes me. Sometimes me. Actually, there's going to be a special Heavy Tuesday this Tuesday. It's going to be the birthday celebration of one of the DJs, Tom Neely. Oh, yeah. Tom Neely. Happy birthday, Tom Neely. He does the Henry and Glenn Forever comics. Oh. And a swell dude. Love that. Very. Wouldn't you like to see that animated? Amazing artist. I got to get him in here. Oh, Tom. I would love the animated Glenn and Henry would be fucked. Oh, one day. I will. So cool. He plays the banjo. I would take that task. I'd help him animate that if he wanted to go that route. John Schneider. Yep. I'm looking at you right now, wherever you are, and saying that when you're done with what happened to the Nicolas Cage Superman, you need to make an animated Glenn and Henry Forever. Bam. And let me just say that I love Danzig, and I know that Danzig has been very kind to Lightning Swords of Death. Has he really? Yeah, yeah. True. But, dude, he gets really mad about it. And I think that you can practice ritual magic and Satanism and have a sense of humor about yourself. I think it actually, I mean, let's be really clear. You ever hear about the cackling of witches? Absolutely. It's because after a spell, when you're done an occult working, when you're doing ritual magic, laughter is a huge part of it. It actually is. Yeah. It is. It is. It is. It is. It is. It is. It is. It is. It is. It is. It is. It is. It is. It is. It is. It is. It is. It is. It is. It is. It is. It is. I don't think I'd be able to love it if I didn't have tremendous love for all of Glenn and Glenn is such fucking solid man and fucking to put him in, you know, that situation. It makes it that much better. It makes it that much better. I think what really needs to be expressed is if you're seriously subversive or satanic or what have you, rebellious or what have you, anything, anything can be interpreted and regurgitated offensively. And you got to see fucking humor in it, man. Because that's what it's all about. You have to laugh at yourself. I personally need to be able to laugh at everyone. Right. And I'm a shit-talking motherfucker. There's nothing sacred, man. What comes with that is you have to be able to laugh at yourself. And if you can't laugh at yourself, then go fuck yourself. You can't laugh at anyone else. I love fucking jokes, man. Because they don't have self-humor, which is another lack in their music. If you don't have self-humor, how can you make music that is... You know, here's the deal. You can't be... You can't... Portray yourself to be this, like, extreme, underground, rebellious, subversive artist. And then have this ego that comes with it. No. Pandas, by the way, are sad. I mean, they won't even fuck to procreate and keep their own species alive. They're like... Ping-pong and Ling-Ling are black metal as fuck because they're sitting... They're sitting in their... They're sitting in their... Urine-soaked cage. Okay, well... Stale bamboo. Eating soggy, stale bamboo. And their, like, eyes are falling out of their head. They're fucking inbred as fuck because there's not enough of them for them to not be inbred. Let's not forget the orca whales that are in captive in San Diego. Ping-pong, do you want to have sex so we can continue existing? No, Ling-Ling. No, Ling-Ling. I don't want you. I don't want to. I don't want you. So, I mean, being... That is so... That is hail Satan at its finest. ...misanthropic. That is the most misanthropic thing is, you know, the truest of the black metal, like, philosophy is, like, you don't even fuck. Because the idea of fucking a woman and making another human life, you might as well just go to church. Yeah. Right? Like, I mean... You just talked me out of this. I said... Wow. There you go. Like, I sell out every time you get into bed with a girl, because you are... You possibly, one little fucking tadpole might get in there and make another horrible, filthy... Wretched spawn. ...wretched human being to fucking a cancer on this world. So, that's why, that's why... Hail Satan. When Gaul came... When Gaul from Gorgoroth... A lot of people like to talk shit on Gorgoroth. I actually like Galgaroth. I don't really like the stuff he did afterwards, but I like Gorgoroth with Gaul. And I found that when he came out about being gay, I'm like, dude, you're the most fucking black motherfucker I've ever seen, dude. So, how do you feel about what's going on in Arizona with that bullshit? How do you... I mean, because... Wait, wait, wait. Remind me. Are you talking about Juarez, Mexico? No, no, no. The legislator, the anti-gay legislator. Fuck all that shit, dude. How ridiculous is that, right? No, seriously. I mean, that doesn't make any sense. I'm not... I'm not... I'm not... I mean, I don't understand the... I'm not talking from like a whole, you know... I have no idea. No, we are pro-gay as fuck. Lightning Swords of Death is like... Wait a minute. Dudes, fuck each other. Except for Chris. He's a homophobe, but everybody else is gay. That's because he's got some faith. I don't watch the news, man. I don't even know what's going on. But like... I mean, did you not hear the talk about dicks and balls earlier? The enemy of my enemy is my friend. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, there you go. And anyone that pisses off Christians... Which are fucking scum... Are my friends. So I will... I'll fucking load up a fucking assault rifle... And stand with the gays on any day. You know what? The fact... Nothing more black metal than fucking men in the ass. I can't attain it. You guys just got a sideband. I'm from Maryland. You guys just got a sideband from lightning swords of dicks. No, in all seriousness, though. In all seriousness, though. If you're... I'm being serious. I am too. If you are a... Subversive person. If you want to rebel about the hypocrisy and the bullshit that exists... Not only in this country. Worldwide. You know... It's... Cut it out already. I mean... Around the world, they're literally going against arms. Venezuela. Where else, Johnny? Ukraine. Okay. In America, I'm surprised this hasn't happened. You know, the legislation that's going on. Because we still have it too easy. We still have our... You know what? We have the fucking air conditioning. We have the Walmart. We have... It's not bad enough yet. The Russian shit with the pussy riot and everything. Like, I get so fucking mad. I'm like, Cold War Part 2. I still don't know what we're talking about. He literally is like 15 years behind. Literally. Literally. No news. No news. No idea what happened. We just told him that we had a black president. Internet. What? We freaked out. One, one, one. One, one, one. One, one, one. What I'm saying here is that, like, okay, I don't know if you're aware of it, but they're beginning to think warp drive is feasible. NASA has a laboratory right now dedicated to warp drive. Listen, I'm aware of a lot of this. This is happening. And so I was thinking the other day, because everything that we're talking about, it goes back to people being really insecure with the horror of being alive. Yeah. When you realize that you exist in this, you know, potentially nonexistent holographic multiverse that we're possibly in. Possibly. It creates. I don't know if we're actually in it. That sounds cool. But you're fucking, I'm going to get so Agent Cole on you right now, dude. Okay. That was a true detective reference for those that are not in the know. It's absolute terror, which drives people to become, to become a monotheist, religious zealot. Because it's that you're, you're given this, you know, safety rape blanket when you're, when you're, when you're born. Coco and a rape blanket. The cop comes and puts it around your shoulders. It's okay. And they don't, because of this rape blanket called religion, you, you miss the splendor and the glory and the real spiritual connection with the wonder of, of, of, of, of the world. of the universe, of the multiverse. And you retard that potential wonder. And instead, you make your world very small. You live in a crazy fiction. Tiny. So why I bring up the warp drive, when I started realizing that, holy fucking shit, it literally is every bit of science fiction is a sigil towards the future. We're basically, we're writing the future as we go. It's all for real. So that means we could colonize just metalheads. That means I could fuck a green beach somewhere down the line. Rape blankets aside. Rape blankets aside. I think that we should have a rule. Like, let's say in about 50 years, we're mining helium-3 on every moon in our solar system. We have a warp drive. We're fucking star trekking. I think we should go, oh, no, no, no. We are absolutely respecting Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. We believe that you believe that this is true. And because you believe this is true, you are not allowed off the gift God has given you. Earth. You have to stay on Earth. We're leaving. You won. You're right. We're wrong. There's a fucking hateful, vengeful God with a dick fucking judging you and watching you all day long. The pancreate won. We're fucking fleeing. We're going to take over the space. You have to stay. We're going to build a cage around the Earth, and you're not allowed to leave. Otherwise, our drone fighters will destroy you. Wasn't this how America was founded in the first place? Yeah. Hello. It all tied together. I have a feeling we're sailing the deep, dark sea, man. I predict that in about 100 years, there's going to be a dollar bill universal with your image on it. Yeah. All right. I'll drink to that. That's a different dimension of the multiverse. I'm fucking a dude. In the meantime, for you fucking measly earthlings, February 28th at the Complex, this is brought to you by the Midnight Collective. Ryan Avery, you did an amazing job. Thank you for being here on the show. We love Ryan. Thank you for having us. Shroud Eater. Yeah, let's give a hand for Ryan. He does a great job, man. Shroud Eater. Orb Weaver. The highly respected by the underground, truly subversive. Lightning, swords, and death. Boom. And. Ancient altar. This is at the Complex. You know what? If you spend a fucking hundred dollars to go see fucking Manowar, you could spend $10 to go see some real underground music. That also means you could bring 10 friends to come see. Right. Absolutely. If you spend a hundred dollars at the bar. Please bring 10 friends. A lot of those Manowar people right now are like busted. I don't know. I don't think they're going to be there. I think they're going to be like at home selling their shit on eBay. Let me just say this. If you spend a hundred dollars to go see Manowar, and if you don't have $10 to see fucking, a true underground show, then you should feel ashamed to show up. What a dick. What a false manowar. Well, they won't have to pay for gas if they start walking now. Maybe we should have like a, maybe we should have shuttles. Here we go. The next step. Since you guys are stupid enough to get rid by Manowar, we're going to provide you some underground shuttles. But all right. For reals. February 28th. Midnight Collective. Shroud Eater. Orb Weaver. Lightning, swords, and death. Ancient altar. Let's not forget. This is going on also. Are you affiliated with that show? Ventura? Ventura. Riverside. Riverside. I'm sorry. Yeah, totally. I'm on warp drive. Hey, Jimmy. Did you ever go to Spanky's in Riverside back in the day? No. Did you hear of it? I've heard of it. It was this weird pizza. Ryan, do you know what I'm talking about? No. It used to be this, this like pizza place. Monstrous. Deep in fucking Riverside. That's in Chico, bro. I know. It was called Spanky's Cafe. And only, only us older fucks know about it. But, that place, that place used to have, I'm talking, it was like the size of this fucking studio. And I saw Bolt Thrower play there. Wow. Touring Warmaster. I saw fucking Entombed there. I saw Morbid Angel there. I saw fucking a shit ton of bands. And, Did they charge a hundred dollars? No. They spent, it was like a seven dollar fucking amazing metal show. Seven. Wow. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, those were the days. Wow. Great show. Breaking the bank. Let's mention this. February 25th, Shroud Eater, Orb Weaver. This is an amazing band from fucking Moreno Valley. Trapped Within Burning Machinery and the Death Kings. Make sure you get out to that. Oh, counselor, there's a show tonight. It's a celebration of our friend, Michelle, from Panties. It's at the Joint. Let's not hold her nose for that one. I hate the Joint. I hate it too. It's too far. But it's Eat the Living, Panties, and a bunch of other bands. So that should be tonight. So it's for, for Michelle's birthday. All right. All right. A little shout out for that. And to her. I want to thank Farron and the Lightning Swords of Death for being here. Fucking A man. I don't know why you guys are not on the Maryland Death Fest. You shit me. Well now we're definitely fucking cool. Let me just say this. Let me just say this. Don't give a fuck. Let me just say this. In all sincerity, you guys are indeed one of the leading American block metal bands that have been paving the way, not recently, for years. Thank you. True. You have some amazing music and you really, your philosophy and the fact that you guys are, let me emphasize this, real genuine human beings. And what I mean by that is, is I've interacted with you guys socially when we're at, on the scene. You're not doing that whole, Angry Panda. Black metal fucking, you know, Boris Karloff. Angry Panda. Panda. That would be really fake, wouldn't it? Oh dude. I love the fact that you guys are real dudes. I love the fact that you guys are real human beings. I love the fact that you guys are involved in society, in relationships. You, you, you, you're approachable. You can talk to you. You're human beings. But when you get on stage, then it becomes an entity that is the real deal in the underground. And that is the epitome of real shit. And that is why I call you guys the revolutionary MC5 of the American block metal scene. I stand. I kick out the door. I kick out the jams. You may laugh at that, but I stand by that statement. No, I like it. I stand by that statement. There'll be a sticker on our next release. It'll say, Jimmy Cab says, Hey, we're going to make that a one line of the MC5 of black metal. I love it, man. And you know what? If people don't get it, then fuck them because true music, it takes a while for people to get. They don't get it till they get it. Exactly. With that, I want to thank everybody for listening. Hands off, Jenny. Thank you very much. See ya. Got it. Got it. Got it. Got it. Got it. Got it. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. but not as brightly lit. A dark side.
