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 content is a work of fiction.
It contains images of graphic violence.
Viewer discretion is advised.
We want to continue following our breaking news at this hour.
20 students have been injured in a high school stabbing in suburban Pittsburgh.
It happened this morning at Franklin Regional High School in Murraysville, Pennsylvania.
That's about 15 miles east of downtown Pittsburgh.
Here's what we know so far.
20 students have been hurt.
Four of them have been flown to various hospitals.
Investigators tell us a suspect is in custody.
That suspect is a student.
That suspect is male.
That's actually 187 in Murraysville Command.
I got my whole ship coming your way.
Let's go.
Okay, come in the front door.
To the first floor, we're on the right.
Halfway down.
We've got multiple victims here.
We need ambulances here as soon as possible.
We advise the suspect is in custody.
Only one suspect.
So that's why I'm so fucking angry.
Because I don't have any friends.
Shut up, man.
Fucking just chill out.
Okay?
Okay?
Just fucking take a pill.
Man, what the fuck is with you people?
You know, why do you have to be so goddamn violent all the time? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

We'll be right back.

We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
We'll be right back.
Overnight, prayers and tears.
A stunned suburban Pittsburgh community coming together after a shocking act of violence.
It happened here at Franklin Regional High School yesterday morning.
I don't know what I got going on down at school here, but I need some of this here ASAP.
Police say this 16-year-old...
16-year-old sophomore, Alex Rival, wielding 8 to 10-inch knives, ran through the halls, slashing and stabbing anyone he could.
22 people in all, 21 students and a security guard.
There was blood right where the double doors are, all over the wall.
People were running everywhere.
No one knew what to do.
It's unbelievable.
No one knew that it was happening.
In the midst of all this evilness, that God is still good.
Even though man makes a choice.

Johnny!
Here's Johnny!
Hey now!
As you can tell, this week has been...
Wow, where do I begin, Johnny?
Tumultuous to be.
Yeah, we got a great show for you today, but unfortunately, there's something going on in my mind.
Let's see.
Way more manic than can be possibly played onto...
This is going to be a very real manic.
Jimmy. ...cab show, so I hope you enjoy the soundtrack of my Downworld Spiral.
Buckle up, kids.
It's going to get rough.
In all seriousness, though, it's one of those things where...
Hey, Chester.
How can you be depressed with Chester in the fucking studio?
Impossible.
Right?
Impossible.
This fucking guy just cheered me up.
Better than a pill.
You know what?
In all seriousness, any of you that are...
You know, mental illness is no longer like that.
It's not a stigma.
It's not a stigma no more, man.
I mean, I think a lot of it has to do not only with the environment that we live in, but also the food and God knows all this other fucking shit that's being done to us socially.
But real quick, let me just mention this.
For those of you that are suffering from any form of depression or anxiety or whatever the fuck, you know what?
It's a different day and age.
And if you really are getting into that...
What I would say, sinkhole or...
What's the word I'm looking for?
I think that quicksand.
Yeah, man.
The deeper you get and the harder you move, the harder it is to get out.
Yeah, you know, if you're falling in that pitfall, make sure you...
You know how they say reach out and talk to someone?
It's true.
Don't do it.
They're all a bunch of fucking dicks.
No one gives a fuck.
Lost Johnny don't give a fuck either, right?
I don't got time to hear you.
You're shit, Jimmy Camps.
I got my own problems.
I got my own problems.
I don't need to fucking hear your bullshit.
Yeah, come on.
But yeah, man, you know what?
If you do have someone to talk to, go talk to them.
But don't talk their ear off, right?
Right, Chester?
You don't want to hear my shit.
You're already like...
Shut the fuck up, right?
Puff, puff, pass.
There's a reason why they say that.
Puff, puff, pass.
Suck it up.
Drink a beer.
As Peyton would say, just drink a fucking beer and shut up.
Gotta drink a fucking beer, bro.
All right, we got a great show for you today.
This is really interesting.
Really big show.
Yeah, you know, first of all, our really good dear friend Scott Peterson from Cryptic Slaughter is out there.
Yeah.
Enjoying those free beverages.
Maybe that's why I'm depressed.
Because you're not paying for them?
Oh, boy.
Where am I going?
Occultus.
That's a fantastic band that you know what I'm really proud to be affiliated with.
As you know, Los Johnny here in Los Angeles, we were the premiere show.
I like how I say that.
Like, narcissistic as fuck, too.
Yeah.
We were the first ones to debut this band.
This is a great fucking band from...
Fuck, where the fuck are they from?
Richmond.
Richmond, Virginia.
They are here in town.
You know why they're in town?
They're on tour?
No, they are here to destroy the fucking Sunset Strip.
Oh, yes.
As you know, the Sunset Strip is not one of...
Maybe that's why I'm fucking depressed.
Well, don't fucking bum me out, dude.
As you know, in the 80s, when all these horrors were...
They were spreading their legs and fucking all these effeminate looking guys with makeup.
And coke.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
You know, a certain genre of music wasn't cool then.
So, they weren't spreading for dudes in denim and leather and stuff like that.
And tonight, we're launching war against all that.
The Rainbow is celebrating their fucking God knows what anniversary.
It's got to be 40 or 50 years by now.
So, you know how disturbing it's going to be.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Those ageing rock stars still trying to wear the whole fucking 80s look.
All those saggy ass fucking horrors.
Plus, all the young kids that think that that shit's cool.
Yeah.
They're trying to relive that guy's youth.
Yeah, man.
I'm like, no, dude.
Yeah.
Those pants don't fit.
It's...
That era should just be dead and buried.
But anyways, next door, the Weapons of Moss Destruction.
This features ghoul, iron rig, and a cultist in Witch Haven.
This is brought to you by the poor kids and golden boys.
Yes.
They're saying fuck all that shit.
So you know what?
It's going to be a great clash.
And we got a cultist here along.
We're expecting Ghoul as well.
Boom.
And then we got a great band from Melbourne, Australia called King Parrot.
They've been touring the United States like the last month, man.
They've been really hitting it hard here.
What the fuck?
All the bands of note are from Melbourne.
Jesus Christ, man.
It's awesome.
I want to go there.
Well, you know what?
They're going to be playing, man.
So we're going to be talking about that.
Real quick, though.
This week was really interesting.
As you know, we started the set there, and we were referring to the stabbing.
The high school stabbing.
Oh, my God.
I don't know why I relate to that now more than ever.
You know, I got here, and I noticed that you put on the plays for the first two songs.
The first one was a Jesus Lizard song.
Yeah, what the fuck, man?
Why is everybody so violent?
Take a fucking pill.
Yeah.
Take a fucking pill, man.
What a great band from their record show.
So from, I think that was at CBGB's, Killer McMahon.
And then the song we heard after that was Craft, I Want to Commit Murder.
No subtlety there from their record, Void.
I Want to Commit Murder right now.
Yeah, which ties into the whole school thing.
And I saw this article where this kid was just like, I don't know what's going on.
I'm scared.
I'm in jail.
I'm like, of course you're in jail.
You fucking stabbed like 10 people, dude.
What's wrong with you?
Well, you know what, man?
Sometimes you got to do what you got to do.
Yeah.
And now he's doing what he's going to do, which is time.
So later, kid.
Sorry.
You know what?
That is the one reason that it's very important to always try to keep at least one foot on reality.
Yeah, he's going to do a lot of time.
Yeah, he's fucked.
All right.
Speaking of time and speaking of fucked up reality, Bunkerville, Nevada.
Have you heard about this?
Ah, the militia.
All right.
You know what?
Everybody is hey-hoing to get down there.
Jeremy.
Are you a Prozac, too?
What the fuck?
Can you play the Ramones song, son?
All right.
All right.
As you know, in Bunkerville, Nevada, doesn't that already sound like a fucking hostile area right now?
Yeah, that's somewhere I don't ever want to go to.
All right.
There's a rancher over there by the name of Cliven Bundy, who's, you know, God bless him.
More power to him.
He's fighting the fucking United States government.
They're trying to fuck him over over there.
But what was interesting was the fact that...
Militias and other...
I mean, I don't know if you realize this, but there is a building resistance to the United States government and the tyranny that they inflict on people.
I'm well aware of that.
And it's funny because here in California, I guess because we're always stoned and now with the whole fucking, you know, Sunset Strip thing going on.
But over there in Nevada, man, I mean, there was a caravan of people coming from all over the United States.
I mean, it's still the Wild West in that sense of the word where it's like if you fuck on my land, I'm going to fuck with you.
Well, here's the deal, man.
Don't tread on me.
Here's the deal, man.
You know, and I don't want to get on a soapbox or nothing, but I've been talking about this for a long time.
I mean, our civil liberties are being...
I mean, that's a reason why they're to be fucking depressed.
Our civil liberties are fucking literally eroding.
Our own constitution is not only has been sold, but it's trampled every day.
You can deal with that.
You can see that with law enforcement in itself.
But you know what?
Let's go to Bunkerville.
Why don't you play that news bite right there?
Yes, sir.
Armed with tasers and dogs, federal agents from the Bureau of Land Management clash with protesters.
It's a turf war that's been brewing for years, finally boiling over and caught on the cell phone video Wednesday.
The Bureau of Land Management confirmed that two protesters were detained Wednesday and another one arrested just days before.
All have been released.
And I just saw federal agents throw my aunt on the ground.
On the surface.
It's all about cows.
The Bureau of Land Management is removing cattle owned by rancher Cliven Bundy because they say he, quote, owes the American people in excess of $1 million and refuses to abide by the law of the land, despite many opportunities over the last 20 years to do so.
Bundy claims states' rights, saying his cattle have grazed here for decades.
I have no contract with the United States government.
I'm paying grazing fees for management.
That's what BLM was supposed to be, is land manager.
And they was managing my ranch out of business.
So I refuse to pay.
The bad blood has sparked a roadside protest movement that is growing by day and night, with people from well beyond Nevada driving for hours to join in.
Bonding by campfires, they say they're fighting for something way bigger than cows.
It's about the freedom of America.
We the people, we have to stand up.
We have to stand up and fight.
We the people, we have to stand up and fight, man.
You know what?
You know what?
You know what?
It was funny when this was going on.
There was, like I mentioned before, hundreds of people coming from all over the United States to support this guy who literally was being besieged by federal snipers and marksmen and SWATs and, you know, God knows what else, man.
It's pretty heavy, man.
And here's another historical reference that I can, that's a parallel.
In 1960, there was the first black student that enrolled in the University of Mississippi.
His name is James Baldwin, I think.
He's still alive.
And so, of course, the old whitey were very upset about this.
And so they called in the National Guard.
Oh, Jesus.
And for the first time since the Civil War, there was a war between the states and the United States government.
And, I mean, it only lasts about three days.
But there were people coming in from all over the South to come and defend Ole Miss.
So this is not new.
This is nothing new in modern America.
Was he the first black, did you say he was the first black student there?
Yep.
You know, I have heard of this.
You know what has not been recorded in history?
What was his first comments when he arrived there?
You don't know that?
Really?
I'm surprised.
Hey, where are the white women at?
Where are the white women at, man?
Oh, that's rough, man.
All right.
Well, what's interesting is, you know, I'm not really too knowledgeable as far as what his gripe is.
But the fact that the government just comes on in and, you know, the only reason why they backed off is because, obviously, what didn't happen in Ruby Ridge and at Waco was the fact that people didn't get involved.
This time around, people were getting involved and they were showing up with arms.
Yeah.
They weren't fucking around.
They weren't fucking around.
They were like, okay, you guys are going to fucking have snipers?
Guess what?
So are we.
And, you know, right now, the situation, the standoff has been put to ease.
Hopefully, this thing will be resolved in a court of law.
But just the fact that the government does that is frightening.
During the week, I was also talking about that.
I don't know.
Are you aware of this, that this is already happening where they want to start implementing microchips?
Whatever, dude.
I mean, have you seen?
I mean, it's one of those like whatever things.
But have you seen how they're?
No.
They're trying to sell it as far as like it's a form of identification.
And dude.
It's like that movie Gattaca.
It's really coming.
It's coming now.
You know, it's frightening that Gattaca and the Mike Judge movie.
Jesus Christ.
Well, the point is this.
Idiocracy.
Thank you.
That's the one that's at both those movies are coming into play.
It's happening.
It's happening now.
It's happening.
And we're still living in a sedated society where people are just like, oh, whatever.
It's not affecting us.
And you know what?
That's what 1930s in the German in Germany.
That doesn't affect me.
So what?
Yeah, we'll get over it.
Yeah.
All right.
Friday, I went to Motorhead.
This is I want to first of all, thank everybody who sent best wishes on Friday.
I went to Motorhead.
Talk about being killed by death.
All right, Jeremy, can you play the kill by death to please?
All of a sudden, Jenny's a fucking top fucking notch employee.
All right.
Friday, I went to Motorhead.
I didn't.
I didn't.
I didn't.
I didn't.
I didn't.
I didn't.
I didn't.
I didn't.
I didn't.
I didn't.
I didn't.
I didn't.
I didn't get killed by death.
I almost got killed by Valium.
Never mix Valium with booze.
I won't go into details as to why I was doing that.
That's not a thing.
But I'm going to also say this.
As you know, these last Motorhead shows are very, very, oh, I don't want to say last.
I don't want to jinx the guy.
But it's very important to attend these Motorhead shows because you just never know.
You never know.
You never know, man.
Again, Lemmy has been doing this thing for the past.
40 plus years.
The tank's going to run out.
You got to appreciate any opportunity you can to see him.
But here's the deal, too.
If you're under the age of 25 and you're all fucked up and you're reliving this whole metal craze, and I get it.
You're excited.
It's all new to you.
And you're doing the whole Leonard Skinner fucking whiskey chugging because you think it's cool.
Wait till you get to be my age and you start suffering all the side effects of that.
And you see a middle-aged man who's...
Who's fucked up and not looking good.
And he's, you know, trying to fucking not mind his business.
Who also carries like a fucking hidden blade in his belt buckle.
Don't fuck with him.
Let him rock out, man.
Yeah.
So, yeah.
It's very simple math.
The Valium didn't work, unfortunately.
Don't mix Valium with alcohol.
All right.
Why don't we get to show?
Motorhead.
Motorhead was great, by the way.
But it's funny because one thing that annoyed the fuck out of me is they bring out Slash to do, to perform like eights of spades and overkill.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Right.
No one should be on that stage except his son or Fast Eddie Clark.
Why is this guy up there?
Like, how did this guy become an icon?
Everybody's hooting and hollering.
What a great fucker.
I can give a fuck about Slash.
Fuck all that shit.
All right.
Let's get the show started before I have a heart attack.
Literally.
Chester?
We got some songs to play.
Hit it.
Hit it.
Hit it.
Hit it.
Hit it.
Hit it.
Hit it.
Hit it.

Motorhead was exceptional.
Scott Peterson is here right next to me from Cryptic Slaughter.
How are you doing there, Scott?
I'm good.
How about yourself?
Pretty good.
I didn't see you at Motorhead.
You were upstairs.
I was downstairs.
No, I was physically upstairs.
Mentally, I was not there.
I had overdosed on Valium, man.
I popped so much Valium.
I didn't feel it at first.
Oh.
And I'm not a pill popper.
The reason why I popped it is because it was like a scenario that came up where I was like, oh, fuck, I might either snap or I don't want to have my night ruined.
So I said, you know, I'll just pop a couple Valium.
Mellow the fuck out, right?
Big mistake.
And so I didn't feel anything.
I popped some more.
I didn't feel anything.
I took a shot.
I didn't feel nothing.
Mike, you were there, right?
Was I cool?
I mean, I'm like, what am I supposed to feel?
You were mellow.
You were supposed to be very.
Yeah, I'm like, I don't feel mellow.
You're never mellow.
Popped some more.
And then saw Motorhead.
I wanted to kill the guy.
Did you see that guy next to me?
That fucking kid.
I wanted to.
I mean, I carry a belt buckle blade.
So, I mean, LAPD screening don't work, you know?
And I'm like looking at this guy like, stay the fuck.
His head banging in my face.
He's fucking grabbing me by the neck.
He's like, I'm like, dude, don't touch me.
I'm on massive amounts of Valium and I want to kill this guy.
So I figured, you know what?
The shit didn't work.
And on the way home, right, Mike?
Did I?
Why don't you get on the mic?
Why don't you get on the mic there and try to fucking say something?
You did snap.
So the moral of the story is.
He went as always, Mike.
Yeah.
He did snap.
The moral of the story is.
The moral of the story is, is don't have Slash go up and fucking perform like that.
That's what sets you off, right?
That's what set me off.
I'm sitting there going, why is this asshole up there?
Why is.
Okay.
Granted, I'm from a different generation, whatever.
I mean, I threw.
I mean, you remember the street scenes.
Yes.
I threw bottles at this guy in 1985.
Like, why is he up there performing with Lemmy?
Why is it fast Eddie Clark?
Or bring Lemmy's son out again.
Like, I'm cool with that.
I don't know.
Maybe Lemmy wanted him.
And if Lemmy wants it, so be it.
Yeah.
He is God.
You know, if Lemmy said, Jimmy, come up on stage and sing, even though you can't sing to save your life, you would do it.
Yeah.
Well, you know what, Scott?
That's why you are such a wonderful guy.
And that's why I'm a fucking asshole.
The one thing that we have a lot in common here is that we both know good music.
As you know, there's a band that's in town from Richmond, Virginia called The Cultists.
I had the.
What I would say the pleasure of discovering this band.
I'd say what?
Over a year ago, Jim?
Yeah.
Let me first welcome The Cultists.
Thanks for being here.
What's really awesome about this is this is the first time that you guys are in Los Angeles, correct?
This is the first time you've ever performed here?
First time.
Wow.
What a fucking.
What a show, dude.
Yeah.
Are you guys aware that tonight that the sunset.
I should pop value for that fucking.
Just get in.
I should fucking pop something.
Slow down.
Are you aware that at the Rainbow, which is a fucking, I guess, world renowned bar here in West Hollywood.
I mean, you know.
It's world famous.
Underground guys don't give a fuck about that.
We didn't get laid there in the 80s.
I'm not going to get laid now.
But they're celebrating like their fucking thing.
And you guys are playing right next door.
And this is what's awesome.
The weapons of mass destruction, which is amazing because the sunset strip will be annihilated.
Listen to this, children.
Cool.
Iron Reagan.
Occultist.
Witch Haven, which is our local dirty boys.
Here.
They're going to be performing right next door to the Rainbow, which is what?
What is it?
What is it, Mike?
Bullet Boys.
Great White.
Great White.
Jack Russell's Great White.
Minimal fireworks.
I think Bullet Boy is only the singer.
Why aren't those guys wrapping dead?
But anyways, welcome to Los Angeles.
How do you feel about playing the West Coast?
I feel pretty good about it.
You know, it's our first time out here.
And we're very lucky that Ghouls decided to allow us to tag along.
Great guys.
And also Iron Reagan.
Yeah.
They're great people.
And this is our second time touring with Ghoul.
The first time was on the East Coast a little less than two years ago.
So, yeah, we're very excited about it.
And, yeah, we're just going to, you know, get out there and do it.
Why has it taken this long for you guys to come out here to the West Coast?
Is it finances?
Finances, coordinating schedules, you know, family stuff, personal stuff.
My work schedule definitely hasn't helped touring with other bands.
So, everything.
Okay.
A little bit of lineup changes, too.
And lineup changes, yeah.
We're packed.
Powering through everything.
So, you guys are literally dealing with what, I guess I would say, are the growing pains of a band?
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
How has the tour been and what has been the response so far?
It's been gangbusters every night.
Especially since we hooked up with Ghoul, you know, and Tempe.
And then on, every night's been amazing.
But even all the stuff from, like, when we started with just Iron Reagan.
Even, of all places, Little Rock, Arkansas on a Sunday.
Oh, wow.
Fucking pizza joint.
Slash punk rock club.
It was still good.
You know, it was like, you know, it was a lot of fun.
Everyone's like, for.
You got a pretty mouth, boy.
Yeah.
For everyone, though.
For, like, us and Iron Reagan and Ghoul.
Like, there's all been great, great fucking responses every night.
The kids have been going nuts.
And, you know, because I'm always just like, man, if you guys like us, I don't know about that.
But, yeah, all the kids seem to like it.
So, it's been great.
It's been a really awesome experience.
You know, for those of you that are not familiar.
You were with Occultist.
It was very interesting.
I stumbled upon your demo and I contacted you.
I told you how awesome I thought it was.
And then you released an LP.
Why don't you talk to us about that?
Yeah, we released an LP called Death Sigils on Primitive Ways Records, which is a label based out of North Carolina.
And, yeah, we went in and recorded that after we recorded Hell by Our Hands at Sleigh Pit Studios, which is the dudes from GWAR run that studio.
Wow.
How are you dealing with that?
I mean, that death.
Right there alone is just tragic.
It comes in waves.
Dave was a personal friend of mine and a personal friend to the band.
And he was a big supporter of us.
And, yeah, you know, it comes in waves is the only way I could put it.
So, it's still very fresh, obviously.
Are you somewhat amazed at the fact that, you know, when you're dealing with a person of that caliber and how influential he was.
And not only just the fact that he was a decent human being.
He was a great fucking guy.
Great sense of humor.
But the fact.
That when someone of that caliber passes, how he's never recognized until they're gone.
That guy was an innovator.
You know, he was truly a true musician.
He was a great entertainer.
Maybe the mainstream didn't understand it.
But in the end, he was an entertainer.
He was a true entertainer, man.
He was a great agitator.
And he spoke the truth.
That's what I really liked.
Did any of, like, his philosophies or the way he thought influenced you guys?
Because you guys tend to have, like, your own.
Like, rebelliousness.
But, like, in an independent way.
When people ask me, what does a cultist sound like?
I'm baffled.
Oh.
And that's a good thing, though.
I think that's a good thing.
Because, I mean, you incorporate.
Correct me if I'm wrong, please.
But I say you incorporate, like, the raw punk element.
Then you have, like, this super, like, grind element.
And then it's just nice and raunchy and apocalyptic.
I mean, it's all over the place.
But what I really like is your vocalist.
Talk to me about your vocalist.
Do you get compared a lot to, like, the 80s sacrilege from England?
All the time.
Yeah, yeah.
Why is that?
I mean, I'll take it.
Because we all love sacrilege.
So do I.
And Carrie completely is okay with that, too.
But, you know, I think Carrie's vocals are very different than the young lady from sacrilege.
Way different.
You know, but, you know, sacrilege, when they were doing their thing, I mean, it was like they were combining the elements of the raw punk.
I don't even think it was called cross-punk back then.
But, like, the early D-beat stuff and then elements of thrash.
And they were put in together in their own way.
And I think they wrote pretty interesting songs that had their own kind of atmosphere.
And maybe that's where people find the similarity, I guess.
But, you know, it's much better to be compared to them than to, let's say, other female front of bands that I think are, you know, not a good comparison.
Yeah, man.
One of the things that I like, Scott, feel free to jump in here, is the fact that when you listen to Occultist, I'm actually looking forward to seeing you perform today.
Have you never seen them play before?
Never.
You have, right?
I have.
I was lucky to witness it when I was on tour with Verma.
And, you know, Nunslaughter played.
Fucking killed it.
You know, we played.
But Occultist, honestly, you guys, fucking, they tore the fucking place apart.
And their singer is like, she just, you have to see it.
I can't even put it into words, like, how much of an awesome front person that she is.
Because she's not a woman.
She's not a man.
She's just a front person.
Yeah.
She fucking just takes over the stage and dominates.
And then you got the rest of these guys fucking going ape shit.
If you do not like Occultist and you don't like good music, you have no life and you just basically suck.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, thanks, guys.
Why don't you go see what we're talking about tonight?
The Roxy.
The poor kids are fucking waging war on the Sunset Strip.
And hopefully, fucking, hope the fucking rainbow gets annihilated.
The weapons of mosh destruction.
Ghoul.
Iron Reagan.
Occultist.
Witch Haven.
Well, this must be interesting because some of these bands like Ghoul and Iron Reagan, they really cater to, like, the young crowd.
How are you dealing with that?
Because it's like fucking ants on a picnic, bro.
I'll tell you.
Last night was the first night that we've been on a picnic.
We've played in front of a really young crowd.
And it was amazing.
That place was great.
It was full of young kids.
It was kind of, it was this place called Rock City Studios in Camarillo.
And it's kind of like a rehearsal spot.
Yeah, yeah, rehearsal spot.
And it's a place where kids can come take lessons.
And they do shows.
And it was great.
It was packed.
And the kids were just having a ball.
So it was really fun.
I like it.
It's neat to see younger kids coming out.
Do all of you, I mean, because you're all, I mean, Scott, you too.
Do all you enjoy seeing the youth not only come out, but, like, you know, fucking OD on their adrenaline and be statesman?
Absolutely.
We were all there once, you know?
Yeah.
Because when they're doing it next to me, and I'm just, like, trying to watch a show, I feel like fucking choking somebody.
But, I mean, but I respect it.
Well, that's why we got to stand back and give them their space.
I mean, I used to go ape shit in the pit.
And, you know, now, these days I just stand to the back.
That's my place at the show these days.
I'm at the bar.
But go ahead.
Go ahead and have it, kids.
Go crazy.
The thing is, though, like, also, especially, like, you know, whether you're playing at the time or just at the show or whatever, to me it's energizing to see, like, young kids that are still, like, really into this and lots of them.
Like, it's like sometimes.
So you're not, like, smear from destruction, whining and crying.
Don't step on the court.
Yeah, it's kind of one of those things where it's, like, you know, sometimes, you know, it's easy to be like, I don't know if I want to do this anymore.
I'm just a grumpy motherfucker, you know.
But when you see that, you know, it reaffirms why you're doing it.
It's rejuvenating, too, right?
Yes, absolutely.
You know, it's like, you know, the love of music and, like, seeing, like, young kids love it that much and, like, coming out in droves, it's awesome.
It definitely keeps the momentum here going.
Seeing kids that haven't had the weight of life upon them yet, you know, they're really enjoying it.
Yeah.
It's nice.
It's a nice thing, you know.
So, yeah.
Yeah.
And plus, also, they're listening to good bands, and I'd rather see the kids get into this kind of music than fucking One Direction or whatever that rest of that garbage is.
There's a lot of garbage out there.
I can tell you about that.
Yeah, I know.
But, you know.
Maybe not.
I'm going to get you in trouble, though.
I think, you remember when we were young, we were, you know, at Hoover Hall and Fender's Ballroom going fucking crazy and, you know, and it's good to see the kids that they have an outlet to do that, and it's good that they're supporting good bands like Occultist School and Iron Ring.
Yeah.
I guess if you really want to look at it, it's better that they fucking go crazy at your show than go stabbing fucking, like, all kinds of kids at high school, you know?
And one thing about Iron Ring I want to add, because you mentioned a previous time we interviewed about kind of a young crowd, and I guess maybe a young crowd is what they draw out here, but, you know, on the East Coast, even back in our hometown, I mean, they mostly bring it.
It's mostly old heads.
There's some young people.
Really?
Yeah.
It's a lot of the old punks, you know, the Richmond punk rockers and people that kind of built the scene there.
I mean, that's a lot of that crowd that comes out to see them, you know?
Oh, right on.
That's good, man.
Well, those guys are alumni of so many good bands that really help things, you know, help keep things rolling in that area, you know?
So everybody comes and, you know, enjoys it.
It seems that in that geographical part of the United States, there seems to be, like, a real sincerity, real kind of integrity when it comes to the underground scene there.
Not to, you know, say anything bad about Los Angeles, but, like, it seems like it's real close-knit and real supportive.
Am I right on that?
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Wow.
Yeah.
That must be nice, man.
It's the best.
Talk to us.
I'm sorry.
Go ahead.
It must be, I don't know, it must be something in the water because, like, I don't know what it is, like, but just that area, man.
It's like...
James River?
Yeah, the community.
Well, I don't know, man.
Aren't they, like, drilling for natural gas in your part of the country?
I heard that water is, like, toxic over there.
My friend got dysentery from the river, so maybe that's what it is.
You know, maybe that's it also.
We're all just tempered in raw shit, you know what I mean?
So that's just, it makes us stronger.
Nothing changes you.
Nothing changes you.
Yeah, exactly.
Forged in raw shit.
Talk to me about the CP, man.
This is interesting.
Talk to me about this EP that's coming out.
Yeah, we got an EP coming out.
Got a couple names we're throwing around for it.
Nothing solidifies.
It's going to be four songs, and we're pretty excited about it.
We're going to premiere one of the songs tonight.
It's going to be the last song we play.
It's called Transfixed at the Precipice, and we'll be playing that.
And, yeah, we're just going to keep that.
We're going to make that kind of a bridge between the next full length, which we're going to get to work on as soon as possible.
And just try to keep riding the wave until, you know, it kills us or we fall off.
Wow.
Well, that's nice.
I did not say that at all.
Literally.
All right.
The Weapons of Moth's Destruction featuring Occultist.
First time in Los Angeles.
For those of you that are listening, make sure you get out to this show.
This is going to be a phenomenal show.
Witch Haven, Iron Reagan, Ghoul.
Please.
Lost Johnny, do we even have to say anything?
No.
It's really pointless.
If you're not there, then you should be ashamed.
You're fucking lame.
Chester, why don't you start off the set there with some good tunes.
Let's hear some fucking shit.
Hit it.
You are about to enter another dimension.
A dimension not only of sight and sound, but of mind.
A journey into a wondrous land of imagination.
You will find yourself inside a state of state where you will appear like You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You You All of their symbols To collect the world And this idea of the non-savage They were called The sin of the living By blinding our sight So adorned in The illusion of god Decisions Decisions Decisions Of the god Must be put in place On our days We've been told That the sun Is no shame The world is Is no empty Decisions of god Was once a time In our place But now it's gone And the world is A place of Decisions Decisions Decisions Decisions Decisions Decisions Decisions Decisions Decisions Decisions Decisions Zum And his passion for manipulation And panic association To draw these black nations To the extent Of their Disgrace Disgrace Disgrace Disgrace Disgrace Now I know that My young, young, young Is in recognition Of his potential As soon as he's dead Stopping the podcast Now I'm in my job It's just a new class Now American Cowboy Taking on the federal government Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy Threatening to launch a range war After the government sent snipers and helicopters To seize his cattle And now what started as a land battle Is a giant standoff On one side, armed officers sent by the feds To surround Bundy's ranch And on the other side, growing crowds Supporting the rancher And the confrontation now getting violent At one point, rangers shooting Bundy's son Amon with a stun gun Wow I'm Americanized Nine tons of crack a day I'm Americanized It's not my butt, the USA I'm Americanized All you people will worship us I'm Americanized You worship me, but still you suck USA USA!

All right.
Yeah.
What did we hear there, Lost John?
Sweet child of mine.
No, we didn't.
We didn't fucking hear that shit.
I was telling the occultist guys my face.
You know what?
I guess I could reveal it now.
Fucking back in 1985 when they threw that fucking bottle at Slash and took his head off.
Took that fucking hat off.
Fucking great.
What did we hear, man?
Oh, man.
We heard occultist death sigils on the record of the same name.
After that, we heard ghoul.
Americanized.
Not to be confused with the gore song, but still cool in itself.
From the record Intermediate Level.
After that, we heard Iron Reg and Many Lights from the split 12-inch.
And after that, we ended our sets with Witch Haven.
Products of imprisonment with their own, from their own 7-inch.
What do all these bands have in common?
We're going to be seeing them tonight, and they're going to be slaying the fuck out of the stage at the Roxy.
Game on, bitches.
Yeah, man.
This is the weapons of mass destruction.
This is going on at the Roxy.
This, as we just mentioned.
Ghoul, Iron Reg, and Occultist and Witch Haven.
Playing right next door to the rainbow with that whole other fucking shit there.
So, it's going to be insane.
It's going to be surreal to know that Ghoul is going to be doing their thing next to the dude from the Bullet Boys.
It's only the singer from the Bullet Boys.
Only the singer.
Only the singer.
That's all we need.
That's all I can handle.
I can't wait to see Ghoul try to fucking dismember that guy.
That'd be great.
That'd be fucking great.
It really does bother you that that's next door, doesn't it?
Dude, I don't know about...
I mean, well, you were like a popular...
You were a popular dude in the 80s.
You were getting laid.
You were riding that cryptic slaughtered pussy wagon.
I mean...
Where was this wagon?
Because I would love to have known where it was.
Oh, come on, dude.
Don't...
I mean, I know now you found your significant other.
But at that time, you know that you were getting some fucking pussy.
But the rest of us, we weren't.
Bullet Boy guys?
Oh, please.
They were getting...
Well, they were getting quality pussy.
I was probably just getting the bottom of the barrel at that time.
I don't know.
I gotta say that.
Cryptic slaughtered pussy wagon is just like that string of words.
That's a new...
That's just a...
That's a marriage of words right there.
I say we start a cover band of cryptic slaughter songs, and we call it cryptic slaughtered pussy wagon.
Yeah.
Modern day poet over here.
Yeah.
More ozone depleting hairspray could be involved.
This is true.
Oh, man.
That's funny.
So, as we mentioned, you guys are playing tonight.
Will you guys be returning, or are you planning to be returning to the West Coast anytime soon?
As soon as possible.
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Maybe the fall.
We're going to try.
We're going to see what we can do.
That'd be nice, man.
And again, when is this EP coming out?
There's no release date yet, but we're trying to get it cranked out as soon as possible.
So, yeah, we've got to figure that out.
But in the meantime, they could pick up?
They could pick up the split 7 Inch that we have on a record store today coming out.
It's an exclusive split with Noisem.
Ooh.
Yeah.
And they're doing a Repulsion cover, and we're doing a Plasmatics cover.
Oh, no way.
Wow.
Yeah.
We're covering The Damned by Plasmatics.
Nice.
Great song.
Have you heard their Discharge cover they do?
No, I haven't.
Oh, yeah, I forgot about that.
That was on Cult Nation.
Yeah, Cult Nation did an exclusive tribute to Discharge, and we covered a song.
And, yeah, so it's downloadable.
Yeah, it's called The End.
It's the whole, yes, hear nothing, see nothing, say nothing album.
It's a bunch of different bands, like, you know, bands, I guess, at our level or whatever that are just, you know, kind of not as big, but, like, everyone doing a different song or whatever.
And it's, like, every song turned out amazing on it.
Raw Metal Punk Freaks doing their fucking tribute to Discharge.
I got to check that out, man.
I got to definitely check it out.
What I'm really looking forward to is seeing your vocalist perform tonight because aside from her being extremely beautiful, she's sick as fuck, bro.
She's sick.
I've seen the videos.
Something I wanted to mention earlier, by the way, I don't know if this is, like, a weird little factoid or whatever, maybe it doesn't matter, but this is her first band ever.
Yes, this is her first band.
She's never been in a band before.
Like, when our original sitting her quit, you know, like, we were kind of batting around ideas, and I was actually a roommate with her at the time.
And I was like, I know she's, like, trying to, like, do some stuff musically.
She's been tooling around with some other guys, but it's not really anything serious.
I was like, why don't we try her out?
And she just came in there and just fucking killed it.
Yeah, she does a great job, man.
When you listen to that record or that demo.
That demo, pretty much, by the way, all pretty much first takes of her vocals.
Really?
Yeah, like, she went in there and just fucking done.
She was done in, like, no time.
Yeah, the engineer, actually, who worked with a lot of bigger metal bands and stuff, he's like, she's probably the fastest.
The vocalist he's ever worked with.
Wow.
You didn't say that?
Yeah.
Jesus.
I guess we should mention her name since we're talking about it.
On our records, there's no vocal doubling.
That's her.
Yeah.
That's her single track takes.
Wow.
That's good, man.
Wait till you see it live tonight, Jimmy.
Looking forward to it.
What time are you guys playing tonight?
That's a good question.
I got to double check that in my itinerary.
Poor kids, why don't you text me?
Well, I didn't know.
I actually didn't get that sent over to me yet.
I got everything except for that sent to me.
So I'm just waiting to get it sent to me.
Whoops.
Oh, boy.
I don't know.
I know we're playing third.
Salvadorans, completely useless.
Mike.
I know we're playing third to last.
Mike has the grace of an elephant behind me.
Yes.
Well, I want to thank you guys for being here, man.
We're going to bring in the ghoul guys.
But again, I got to mention this.
It's one of the things that I enjoy the most when I discover a really good band that is true and real and that really brings it.
And especially, not only do they bring it, but they bring it with class, man.
I think you guys are fucking great guys.
Jim, you and I, you know, I'd like to say we're friends.
Absolutely.
And that's why I'm hoping you can spread the word.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Spread the word to your part of the country and say, fuck Jimmy Cabs.
Fuck Jimmy Cabs.
Fuck Jimmy Cabs.
I just gave you the genuine.
By the way, this is a very limited club.
I hope you appreciate that shit.
Very few people have this.
You know what I mean?
Oh, by the way, just, you know, tonight, just sell your Valium.
Don't fucking, you know.
I learned my lesson.
You might see me choke a 15-year-old or something.
Well, you know.
Wait, you got a date?
Fucking guy.
I'll be here.
I'll be here for the regular baiting.
All right.
Let's bring in the Ghoul guys.
I believe they're out there.
Ghoul is going to be performing tonight.
This is at the Weapons of Monstrous Destruction, as we mentioned.
They're going to be playing with Iron Reagan and Cultist in Witch Haven.
This is going on at the Roxy.
There's really, Lost Johnny, there's really nothing to say about Ghoul other than it is true fucking.
It's fucking mayhem.
It's mayhem, man.
It really is.
In the best possible manner.
I mean, we've seen them a couple of times and never disappointed.
Ever disappointed.
I get in the pit.
I stage dive.
Jimmy!
That's how much.
Oh!
Look at that.
Is this my big Hollywood break?
Jimmy Cavs can't die without seeing the creeps, how are you?
Yeah!
You're definitely going to die.
All right.
I should see you guys again.
Look at my face.
Where's the producer?
I thought this was a movie audition.
We're hoping you get the casting couch.
Yeah.
We want that.
We want to get it.
Why do you think we come out here?
We're looking for connections, man.
We need to get in when the Steven Spielbergians and the J.J.
Abramses.
Where's he?
Michael Bayes.
I want lens flare.
More lens flare for Ghoul.
Get this guy an agent now.
Let me first welcome the creeps from Creeps of...
The mutants of...
No, no.
We're just creeps.
It's nice to see you fucking guys.
The last time you guys were on...
Ten fingers, ten toes.
I'm okay.
I'm okay.
I'm okay.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
You're fine.
But, dude, there's like a, it's like Beatlemania, but like for the underground.
Are you aware of that with all these fucking crazy kids that follow you everywhere?
Who are the Beatles?
First question, what is Beatlemania?
I think the fans are responding to our cute bowl haircuts that we have.
I don't know how they're under the hoods, but yeah, we're pretty attractive.
I've seen, I've heard many of my posters on our 14-year-old girl's wall.
You know, it gets hard because we're playing and you can't hear our guitars overalls screaming.
This is a problem that we have, just these girls go, weee.
We got to get louder amps.
The boys do it too, to be fair.
I think it's actually mostly boys.
It's all boys.
All 15-year-old boys.
All on their way to the Mormon Tavern of Knuckles Choir.
What do you enjoy most about playing to like the ghoul audience?
What do you enjoy?
I enjoy it most because it seems like it's just pure pandemonium.
We've never played to another audience, Jimmy.
We have nothing to compare it to.
So I guess it's, with nothing to compare, it's pretty good.
We should try playing for like, I don't know, a Rolling Stones audience.
That would be something.
There'd be a lot of people.
That would be different.
Do you see yourselves possibly playing to a wider audience like that?
I think that'd be great.
Look at us.
Are you kidding me?
More than you even, we have a face for radio.
He has a hatchet in his hand.
How could he not be prepared to play anything less than with the Beatles or anything?
He needs to be playing with the Beatles.
I'm really angling for some Juggalo fans with this hatchet.
I hear they make a lot of money.
It's very subtle, Creepy.
I mean, I've got the plywood hatchet.
I obviously need some more money.
I can't even afford real metal.
This sucks.
Oh, man.
All right.
Ghoul is going to be performing tonight.
Oh, Jesus.
This is fucking great.
This is the best fucking medicine ever.
Ghoul is performing tonight.
The Weapons of Moss Destruction.
This is going on at the Roxy.
This is brought to you by the Poor Kids.
As you know, the Poor Kids, they're no longer going to be poor after this.
Make sure you see Ghoul, Iron Rake, and the Colchis.
We'll make sure they're poor.
We've made it.
They are literally launching a fucking attack on the Sunset Strip and the Roxy.
Let's listen to some at night.
You've Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum Zum We'll be right back.

You You You You guitar solo guitar solo guitar solo guitar solo guitar solo guitar solo guitar solo guitar solo guitar solo guitar solo guitar solo guitar solo Alright, Lost Johnny, what did we hear there?
Oh man, we heard our guests Ghoul minus the Hatchet, but they play their hatchets through amplifiers.
Midnight Riot of the Cannibals from their record Hang Ten.
After that we had another song from Hang Ten, Krieg.
After that we heard Occultist Iron Distort from their record Death Sigils.
After that we heard Noothgrush.
Haven't heard that band in a while.
Always awesome to hear them.
Humandemic from their split with Coffins, which is the song we played after that.
Drown in Revelation.
Damn, this shit is real.
I cannot wait what's gonna come out of the mouth of Ghoul next.
Alright, here's the deal.
Ghoul is playing tonight along with I wasn't disappointed in it.
Along with Occultist and Iron Reagan and Witch Haven.
This is the weapons of mosh destruction.
They are launching a war on the Sunset Strip and all those fucking posers.
We couldn't have picked a better spot to focus our energy on.
Right next to the rainbow.
It's like poser fest tonight.
Great white.
Are you kidding me?
Bullet boy.
You don't even need the bomb.
In this room, all we have to do is light the match and all the air will just explode.
Are you excited to be performing next to these like aging, decrepit 80s fucking, you know, poser rockstar fuckers?
Pretty sure that some of them are going to drop dead tonight.
They will be able to feast on their corpses.
Is there a certain aging rockstar that you'd like to fucking you know...
If you can get your hands on one in particular, who would it be?
Leta Ford.
She's actually looking pretty good.
Unfortunately, she won't be here, but Betsy Bitch will be there.
Are you familiar with Betsy Bitch?
She still does.
She's a classic.
Wow, you really use classic with Betsy Bitch.
Low hanging on her tits that you are saying.
No, she looks phenomenal, man.
She's still hot.
She's still hot, man.
But I like when she does the lollipop deep throating thing.
You lose some of it, though, like when you realize how old she is.
We do that on stage, too, and nobody likes it.
It gets like an entire banana in it.
It's incredible.
Such a double standard.
Alright.
Do we have a caller on the line?
Caller, you're on the line.
Welcome to the very Maddie Jimmy Cab Show.
Who's this?
Papa Smoke.
What's up?
What's going on, Papa Smoke?
What do you have to say to the ghoul guys?
Man, can't wait for tonight.
Big shout out to Poor Kids Radio.
Russ McKay puts out some of the best fucking bands.
Ghoul, Iron Reagan, Witch Haven, fucking Henry kicks ass in that band.
Alright, you're on the guess list for sure, bro.
No, I'm already in there.
But I want to say, you know, these bands are what's really keeping the thrash fucking scene open.
You know, most of the bands you see today, they're all whatever kids there, but not.
This is where you'll see the real fucking moshing, the real pits, the fucking the carnage.
And, you know, rest in peace to Dave Brockie, you know, LeGuard, and Ghoul put on a great fucking show tonight.
I know in honor of him.
Ah, right on, man.
This is not going to keep you from being decapitated at the show, you know.
The smoke up our asses, it feels good.
How do you feel about playing a venue like the Roxy?
Because the Roxy is considered here in Los Angeles, especially in West Hollywood, as like, you know, a rich...
It's a legendary...
It's gonna be defiled by the legendary Ghoul.
It's just another abattoir, for our slaughters.
It doesn't matter how you package it, you're going to die.
Alright, let's talk about tank crimes.
Brain Squeeze, this is going on April 18th through the 20th.
This is in Oakland.
Ghoul is gonna be playing with Municipal Waste, Final Conflict.
Oh, man, I saw the lineup for this show, and I'm not happy that I'm not there.
Yeah, you know what, for those of you that are venturing out to that, this is a must.
For those of you that are there, you should definitely check this out.
Municipal Waste, Final Conflict, Ghoul, Negative Approach, Cannabis Corpse, Fucked Up, Impaled, The Shrine, goes on and on and on and on.
This is happening at Oakland, the Oakland Metro.
Make sure you get your tickets for this.
Okay, and we're going to a big secret reveal.
We're doing a secret show.
Now it's not so secret.
A daytime show with a gold test, and we're going to play nothing but surf songs because we know that's what thrash fans want to hear.
That's what our fans really want.
They've told us time and time again, enough with the moshing.
I want to dance.
Let's dance, motherfucker.
I just want to relax at the ghoul show.
We're doing a daytime show Saturday, April 19th, in support of our EP, Hang Ten, that, uh, all surf, all times.
Where?
One, two, three, four, go records.
That's right, in Oakland, California.
Nice.
Alright, man.
You got the big reveal, Jimmy Cabs.
How do you like it?
I'm sure your viewers, your ship is up by five.
Unfortunately, you're probably correct, man.
Five and a half.
Are you going to be doing the legendary ghoul show in its entirety at the Roxy tonight with the fool?
You mean, no, all the fire?
That's next door at the rainbow room.
If you want, less people will probably die at our show.
Uh, uh, uh, Is this an all-ages show tonight?
I fucking hope so.
I like to meet young and tender.
The younger, the better.
We could only play at Chuck E.
Cheese as we would.
Oh, man.
This is great.
Ghoul is going to be performing tonight.
Oh, my God.
Fucking hell.
I don't have a heart attack there.
Ghoul is going to be performing tonight at the Roxy.
This is going to be a fantastic, fantastic show.
This is brought to you by the poor kids.
As Papa Smoke mentioned there.
This is Weapons of Moth's Destruction.
Ghoul, Iron Reagan, Occultist, and Witch Haven.
I gotta tell you, man, it's really interesting when I see you guys perform.
The, uh, the energy you guys put into it.
What is it that you guys take, man?
Drugs, methamphetamines.
Drugs, lots of drugs.
You guys didn't subscribe to the 80s Nancy Ray thing?
I mean, we don't even have a merch person or sound guy.
We've got the drug dealer.
We take everywhere with us.
Baron Sommedy, he provides us with the best shit.
I think, man, we're going to try to get you all high with us tonight.
Just stand towards the front, okay?
Have you ever done bath salts?
You're going to get close.
The second-hand bath salts don't travel so far.
We got some crocodiles, some bath salts.
It's going to be a flesh-ripping good time.
Oh, that's great, man.
Are you still there, Papa?
I guess not.
Did we get rid of that fucker?
Oh, well.
All right, all right.
All right, so tonight, man, make sure you go check out Ghoul.
Aside from this show and tank crimes, the brain squeeze, what else is going on with you guys?
Dude, we've got great fucking personality.
What's going on?
Not this is it.
That's it.
We tour.
We go home.
We eat human flesh.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I'm writing a book.
I can't even read, Jimmy.
I can't even read.
I'm crying.
I'm crying.
I'm crying right now.
You've brought up my horrible, horrible secret.
Nothing's going on.
Johnny, why don't you take it for a bit?
Jeez, man.
I don't even know where to start, man.
You just brought down a weird vibe, man.
You pointed out the poor guy's illiteracy, man.
What the fuck, man?
That's right.
First you called us mutants.
First you called us mutants.
Now you point out that I can't read.
This is bullshit.
I'm hurt.
I'm leaving.
I'm leaving.
I'm leaving.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
No, man.
We got some more beer coming our way.
Tell about your tassel.
Tell about your tassel.
More beer?
I'm in.
I'm in.
Okay, we're good.
No, we brought up an interesting side note about your tassels on your vest there.
Could you, you know, despite your illiteracy.
This is going to be great for the listeners, man.
You really understand the radio, don't you?
We all got handsome faces for it.
If I could just describe the tassels, the tassels on your vest.
The tassels on my vest come from a World War I grave that I dug up.
I think he was either Austro-Hungarian or a Serbian or something.
He was a shit, but he was an officer and now I wear his fucking vest.
It looks pretty crusty, but crusty more like it's been in the ground for 80 years, not crusty like Jim from a cult.
How do you feel, Jim, when you're performing in front of a ghoul crowd and then you know what you're dealing with?
You better say scared.
Very afraid.
That was great.
I could imagine, man.
I could imagine.
It must be fucking fun.
All right, ghouls playing tonight.
As we mentioned, the Roxy.
This is the weapons of mass destruction.
And then let's not forget.
A timely reference, for sure.
Yes, yes.
Let's not forget.
The forefront of people.
Tank crimes, the brain squeeze.
That's going on 18th through the 20th in Oakland.
Make sure you go see what I already know.
The great performances.
You're going to like it.
You're going to like it.
You're going to like it.

Hit it.
man, we've been having a ball.
It's been awesome.
You know, we started off in California down at the start of March, and, you know, we've been to Texas and did South by Southwest, which was an awesome experience.
And since then, man, we've just been hitting it pretty hard, playing most nights.
Only had a couple of days off here and there, but it's been amazing, man.
Really awesome experience.
And, you know, like, I think, you know, the last couple of weeks, we've seen, like, show attendants picking up a bit just as a sort of word's getting out around America about our show and stuff.
Which is really cool.
You know, this is really interesting because is this the first time you guys have been to America as King Parrot?
It is, yeah, yeah.
Like, you know, we're all guys that have played in bands in Australia and stuff before.
You know, this is kind of our new band.
And, you know, it's been going good in Australia for the last, what, month?
And, yeah, so this is...
We've done some Asian stuff, but this is our first time in the U.S., so, yeah, it's going good, man.
We're stoked.
Now, real quick, why don't we mention some of the bands that you guys have played in?
Okay, well, I mean, yeah, I guess, like, there's a whole bunch, you know.
Like, you know, there's, like, Damaged, Blood Duster, Cemetery Urn, you know, Bremlin.
That's just a name I can't pull, man.
There's so many.
We've all been, like, playing in bands for such a long time.
Dreadnought's another one that's, like, you know, been in an Australian band, our bell guitarist, he played in Dreadnought for a long time.
And, you know, it's more sort of, like, rock and roll sort of band and stuff like that.
We've all sort of been around the traps, but, you know, King Parrot's our new sort of vehicle and seems to be taking us to a lot of places in a short period of time, which is really cool.
So we're just enjoying the ride at the moment.
You know, it's funny because you mentioned Cemetery Urn.
That is so different from what King Parrot is now.
Do you find that this band just really opens up the avenues for you to express yourself on a whole new level of intensity?
Yeah, I think so, man.
You know, it's like, I think it takes, there's so many influences from different places with King Parrot.
You know, it's like, there's, you know, there's obviously, there's the grindcore influence, which is big and trashy.
And there's also a huge, like, punk element to it as well.
And, you know, I think the thing with King Parrot is that we try not to restrict ourselves too much.
We like to be influenced by all that sort of stuff.
And for me, it's like, as the front man, it's like, you know, I just do my thing and just, you know, you know, I've got a lot, I've got a lot of energy to get out.
And, you know, we try and purvey that in our live show.
So, yeah, it's been good, you know.
It's like, it's cool not to have any sort of rules.
And, you know, there's no sort of, you know, we're going to be like this.
We're going to be, like, strictly death metal or strictly trash metal or whatever.
You know, we've just sort of found our little niche and we've got our own sound.
And I think that's sort of resonating with people enjoying our music.
Yeah, you know, what I really like about the album Bite Your Head Off, which is out, which is out, now, is that there's really no, no what I would say, titles.
It's just raw, brutal energy.
But at the same time, it has a good vibe to it.
It seems that all you guys, when you recorded this record, were having a great time and you're just fucking bashing out the tunes.
Am I correct on that?
That's it, man.
Yeah, we didn't take us very long to record the album at all.
You know, we, you know, we had the songs for, you know, we'd been jamming the songs for a year or so.
And, you know, we had it down pretty good.
We just got in there and we did it live.
And, you know, obviously there's a few guitar overdubs and stuff here and there.
But I think, you know, when I was recording the vocals, I think I melted out the whole album in about four hours.
So it was like, you know, we didn't, we didn't, you know, spend months and months and months doing it, you know.
It was all done in a couple of weeks.
And, you know, we just had a really good time doing it.
And that's sort of like the work, I think, of this band, you know.
It's like, we just, we just want to keep the, keep the ball rolling and keep it going and tour as much as we can and just enjoy ourselves while we're doing it.
And it's like the most important thing, you know.
I think that sort of rubs off more than anything with King Parrot, you know.
It's like we're having a really good time and, you know, the shows are funny and ridiculous and high energy and all that sort of stuff, you know, rather than, you know, I guess some bands it's kind of sort of like metal bands and sort of doom and gloom a bit and all that sort of stuff where I think we're kind of the opposite to that.
Yeah, man.
It seems that you guys just, you know, you guys bringing in a fresh new perspective to the music scene where it's gotten a little too mundane, a little too serious and everybody's stuck up on, you know, fucking either wearing corpse paint or trying to outdo themselves with how brutal they could be.
It's nice to have a refreshing perspective where everybody's just having a great time.
Let's talk about the United States tour.
You guys have been literally touring all different regions in the United States.
As you know, because now you are literally, literally here, every separate big market is completely different.
You have the liberal states and then you have the very conservative states.
Have you experienced any of the political backlash in these regions?
The political backlash?
Yeah, like for instance, when you're like in the Bible Belt, that's like a very conservative, very right wing, very, you know, kind of redneck, a little bit of a redneckish type of environment.
When you're like either in the East or the West Coast, it's a little more liberal, a little more, you know, we like to smoke pot and mellow out.
We don't, we don't, we don't give a fuck about homosexuals or lesbians fucking or getting married.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, yeah.
You know, you know, the United States is a very bipolar country, man.
Yeah, yeah.
I noticed, I certainly noticed in California how much people like to smoke pot.
Yeah.
I mean, you can't go anywhere without smelling that shit everywhere.
I know you look here, I reckon you're definitely down in Texas and all that sort of stuff, you know.
You certainly notice the difference, don't you?
I mean, yeah, for me, that was probably the most eye-opening thing.
You know, just the people's demeanor and the way they talk and, you know, I mean, we spent a week in Austin at South by Southwest, so that's pretty cool there, but, you know, going to Dallas and Houston and those sort of places is a little bit different, yeah, that's for sure.
Uh, you know, I think, yeah, we sort of, the Bible Belt, which you're talking about, sort of in the middle, we're going to be doing that in the next little, in the next couple of weeks or so, but, you know, like, I haven't noticed it so much, man, you know, I don't really pay too much attention to that, but, you know, I mean, we have a band called King Parrot, so we kind of fly under the radar a little bit.
It's not like we're, you know, it's not like we're like a satanic black metal band or anything like that.
I just wanted to get your perspective because it is always interesting to hear when an outsider comes into the United States and they're, they're like seeing firsthand just the fucking ridiculousness in this country with the issues that are going abroad, you know?
Yeah, well, it is interesting to see, you know, because, like, I think in Australia, I mean, it's kind of similar, you know, like, Australia's quite Americanized, but, you know, I mean, we have elements of that, but I guess the more, hardcore elements in America are probably more hardcore than what exists in Australia, so, yeah, I have noticed it a little bit, but, yeah, we're just trying.
The audiences that you're, the audiences that you're playing to, how are they adapting to King Parrot?
Because, as we mentioned before, this is literally like a fresh band here in North America.
Are they understanding it?
Are they getting it?
Are they vibing it?
Talk to me about that.
Yeah, look, I think so, man.
I think, I think, I guess when we sort of started out playing in Australia, we were sort of getting in people's faces a lot, and, you know, I like to get in the crowd, I like to jump in the crowd, and, you know, screaming people's faces and sort of, you know, making pay attention a bit, I guess, and I think when we first sort of started out doing that stuff in Australia, like, people were on the front foot and were really sort of, like, thought I was getting out there to try and start a fight with them or something like that, but, you know, now, people are sort of used to that sort of thing in Australia, and our shows in Australia are just, like, really hectic, you know, really chaotic, and everyone's sort of, you know, just fully involved in stage diving and crowd surfing, and everyone's just having a really, really good time, so I guess we're just sort of starting fresh here in America, and, you know, some of the biggest shows that we've played have been really, really awesome, and, you know, very similar to the stuff that we do in Australia, and some of the smaller shows are just what they are, you know, and we just try and do the same thing every night, and, you know, hopefully it catches on like it has in Australia, and, you know, we can spend a lot more time over here touring.
Yeah, man.
You're coming back to Southern California April 18th.
You're going to be playing the satellite.
How do you feel about playing back in the City of Angels?
Oh, we're stoked about that, man.
You know, we had a couple of days at the end of the tour there free, and I had a chat to our booking agent, and I'm like, man, we've got to fill these dates up and play in L.A.
again, you know.
We played the whiskey with Cattle Decapitation in March, and it was just such an awesome show, and we had a really, really good response, and, you know, I think, I'm not sure what the capacity of the satellite is, but hopefully it's a little bit smaller, and, you know, some of the people that saw us with Cattle Decapitation can come back and check us out, and hopefully we'll get a few new faces as well.
Cool, man.
Now, you have a record out, Bite Your Head Off.
How can people get a hold of that?
Uh, you can get that via the Candlelight Record USA page.
There's a link on there.
You can go to this store and you can buy that, or, you know, you can get all our merch from Indie Merch.
You can get it all via our Facebook page.
So, yeah, you know, it's all pretty easy to find, you know.
The record's been out on Candlelight now in Europe for a while, and it's been out in Australia for a while.
It only came out in America in December, so, you know, it's pretty, uh, it's relatively new for the, uh, U.S.
market, but, uh, yeah, you know, it seems to be going really well, man, and, you know, we've been selling a lot of vinyl and stuff.
You can't, you can, you can buy the, uh, vinyl from our, uh, Australian merch store, but shipping's a bit of a bitch, but, uh, you get that, I guess.
Well, I'm sure you guys are selling it as well with your own merch, correct?
We are, man.
We sold it, we sold a lot of it at the shows and all that sort of stuff.
Cool.
So, uh, yeah, we've got a few left.
Hopefully we've got a couple left by the time we get to LA.
Cool, man, right on.
One final question.
How annoyed are you with every American still doing that whole fucking, uh, uh, fucking, uh, Dundee impression?
Huh?
That whole Crocodile Dundee shit?
That's quite a bit, man.
But the whole, uh, that's not a nice, this is a nice thing.
Yeah, yeah, do you still have motherfuckers doing that to you?
Yeah, yeah, man, we've been getting that quite a bit, you know.
That's not a nice, yeah, all that sort of shit.
All typical stereotypes, I can get it, you know.
That's all good.
You know, we actually get a lot of people, like, you know, quoting our, I don't know if you've seen our videos and stuff like that, but videos for, like, uh, shit on the liver and the new one that we did for, uh, Dead End, you know.
We're actually getting quite a few people, like, quoting those to us, so that's kind of cool, something a bit different, you know.
Nice.
That's cool that people have seen it and they know about it, you know, so that's kind of cool, but yeah, you get all the typical Australian ones as well.
That's funny, man.
King Parrot, indeed, a band to look out for.
They are, right now, literally invading the United States.
The Australians are invading.
This band displays not only what you want as far as a live band, which is extreme, brutal energy, total fucking high-intensity, raw fucking music, but without the serious fucking bullshit that we are all fucking choking on right now.
Go check out a fun band, King Parrot.
I want to thank you, Matt, for taking the time to talk to me on the Very Mad at Jimmy Cab Show.
Thank you very much for your support.
Jimmy, we really appreciate it, brother.
You're welcome.
You're welcome.
You're welcome.
You're welcome.

Oh, man, dude.
This chick, we were at a video.
Remember that video shoot that we went for Dillon's Martos?
Hey.
Hey, have you met Jimmy?
I don't give a fuck.
Fuck him.
He's not in a band.
Fuck his ass.
Oh, hi.
How are you?
Like, totally gravitating.
Well, here I am waiting.
Did she say this?
Did she honestly say?
I should give her an honoring fuck Jimmy Cab shirt.
She earned it.
She earned it.
So, Salvatore and Mike are standing out there, right?
We're like, hey, man, we're supposed to be on the guest list.
There's no fucking guest list.
Like, what the fuck, right?
And then all of a sudden, the tour manager comes out, and he's like, hey, you know what?
I just completely slipped my mind.
I'm sorry.
But through that time, though, what was it?
Like a good 30 minutes?
Yeah, 30.
You feel like a fucking schmuck.
You feel like a fucking asshole.
Yeah.
Because every other motherfucker that shouldn't be on the guest list is walking right in.
And they're looking at you just going, eh, I thought you were on the guest list.
Yeah, yeah.
Fucking scumbag.
Fucking dirtbag.
All right.
Lost Johnny, what did we hear there?
We heard some songs.
This first band, King Parrot from Melbourne.
Shit on the liver.
Oh, boy.
Sounded like my night last night at the Turnbuckle show.
From their record, Bite Your Head Off.
Oh, man.
That's heavy shit.
From another song from that album.
The name of the song is called Bozo.
And then we ended the set with the interesting little turn.
Another Australian band, Cemetery Urn.
Death, Turbulent Fire from their record, The Conquered Are Burned.
Yeah, and as we mentioned, you know, King Parrot features a member from Cemetery Urn.
Fuck yeah.
Which is awesome.
King Parrot's coming to town.
April 18th.
They're playing The Satellite.
This is a must fucking see show.
This band is fucking great.
As you heard, you know, we just played a couple tracks off their record.
Make sure you pick up that album, which is called Bite Your Head Off.
Bite Your Head Off.
That's on Candlelight Records.
They're coming to town April 18th at The Satellite.
All right.
Scott Peterson was generous enough to come join us.
He's going to be frolicking his way down to the weapons of mosh destruction.
How great.
How great is Iron Reagan and Ghoul and all those guys?
Well, Iron Reagan, amazing band.
Ghoul.
Occultist.
But honestly, Occultist is the band that, for me, not just because Jim's our friend, but because.
They're great guys.
No, but when you, and a great woman.
They have the woman's name.
So when you see them live, you will understand like what I saw in Pittsburgh when we played that festival with them.
Like, I knew they were good, but they're one of those bands that they're awesome on record, but live.
I don't care how old we are.
You're going to want to go jump on that.
Hit and like jump up there and sing with them.
That's how good they are.
Is there a possibility?
I mean, will you be making a guest appearance tonight?
I mean, you've been known to do that from time to time.
And no one has asked me, but you know me, I'm a whore.
I'll be up there in a heartbeat.
You want me to introduce your roadies?
I don't know.
I'll do whatever.
Come up here.
Come get decapitated.
I'm there to support Tony from Iron Reagan, Jim from Occultist, the dudes in Ghoul.
And that's what I'm there for.
I mean, anyone who knows me, if I'm out on a Sunday night, it has to be for a good goddamn reason.
Because my fat tattooed ass is usually happy at home watching Walking Dead and Game of Thrones.
Well, not Walking Dead anymore, but Game of Thrones now.
But, you know, this is a show that needs to be seen.
Yeah.
It's a foolproof bill.
Oh, dude, just the fact that it's right next to the fucking rainbow.
It's good.
You still hung up on this whole rainbow thing.
Oh, dude, I mean, I'm a psychiatrist's wet dream.
Like, yeah, I got major issues of it, man.
I mean, but.
Just the fact that you'll see, like, the Ghoul guys walking around with their hatchets.
And, like, they'll be, like, some fucking 50-year-old cocaine fucking balding 80s faster pussycat fucker there.
You know what I mean?
It's just.
Or the one bullet boy.
I don't make.
At my age, dude, I don't harbor anything anymore.
Oh, no, dude.
At our age, we.
Fuck those dudes.
We don't need to make any more apologies anymore.
We're done.
Fuck all those dudes.
All right.
Well, you got something coming up in July.
Why don't you talk to us about the grindcore?
In July, I'm honored to be part of the grindcore fest in memory of, you know, Jesse Bentado.
Right.
You know, from Terrorizer, Napalm Death.
I mean, Lock Up.
I mean, Cryptic Slaughter and Terrorizer used to play the Hoover Hall together, which, as you know, you were there.
Yeah.
And I get to play four cryptic songs with my brothers in Vermonk.
Nice.
And, you know, I was happy that, you know, Enrique and Emma asked me if I would do that with Vermonk.
I'm stoked that my brothers in Vermonk want me to be there to do that.
And, I mean, we get to play.
I'm sure I'll stay with fucking Nasia, Tormentor.
Fucking Tormentor.
How do you feel about that, man?
I think it's fucking great.
I honestly do.
I had those guys on the show not too long ago, man.
And just the fact that they are, just the fact that they reunited, they're going to be performing.
That's going to be great.
I haven't seen them literally since, you know, I was a waist 32.
Well, you know, get old days.
Get old days.
I mean, I just, I love the fact that older bands that were around when I was around were still doing it.
I mean, I wish I could do it with Cryptic.
You know, it doesn't happen.
You've been hounded a lot by that, man.
Like, people always seem to, like, think that there's a whole other reason why you're not doing it.
No, you know.
And you've always been gracious enough to just keep.
When does, does it get old?
Do you get tired or what?
No, not at all.
I mean, the fact that people still want it so bad as much as, you know, and in all honesty, as much as the rest of us in Cryptic Slaughter wanted it.
You know, Les wants it.
I want it.
Rob wanted to do it.
And it's just, it's just one of those things that.
Unfortunately, with, at the age that we're at, our schedules, it's just, you know, it's not going to happen.
And, you know, and Bill's made it clear to us that he doesn't want to be part of it.
And so we have come to a crossroads that, okay, if we're going to do it, our fans can be cool with us doing it with another singer.
And it's just one of those things that we'll, you know, we will cross that bridge when we get to it.
If it happens, it's meant to happen.
If it doesn't, it doesn't.
I mean, at least I get to be on stage with Vermark.
And.
I mean, I can't play four songs of Cryptic Slaughter for the fans of L.A.
And, I mean, that's where we're, I mean, we're from Santa Monica, but, you know, you were there back in the day at Fender's Ballroom.
Yeah, we're an L.A.
band.
And we love our fans as much as they love us.
And we owe everything to them for keeping our name alive.
So the least I can do is get up on stage with Vermark and play those Cryptic songs for them and have them sing along and give them something.
Well, you know what's even worth mentioning?
What's worth mentioning also is the fact.
That relapse record, which, of course, last time you were here, we promoted and we talked about.
They re-released Money Talks and Convicted on vinyl.
So make sure you go pick that up.
And then this is interesting.
As Scott mentioned, July 12th, Grindcore.
This is the festival that is brought up to pay tribute to the late, great Jesse Pentado.
Vermark, Nasia, of course, yours truly, Cryptic Slaughter will be there.
I mean, well, excuse me.
That's Scott from Cryptic Slaughter.
I don't want to start the rumors.
Yeah.
Phobia.
The War Master.
FCD and Tormentor.
Blood Come.
Fucking A.
And a list of other fucking bands.
Louis Seidel.
And I have to give a special shout out to a younger band that's going to be there that my buddy Jason Charles is working with called Raptor from Portland.
These are younger kids, but they're an old school thrash band.
Honestly, if you like good old school thrash like Exodus, Cryptic Slaughter, watch Raptor.
You will fucking.
They're going to fucking kill it.
This is going on at 333 Live.
Tickets are available now.
For that.
Also, you are going to be coming out, my dear friend, in the new Bulldozer magazine.
Yeah.
Cryptic Slaughter interview with you and Les.
And even Bill Montoya chimed in on there.
I know.
We miss that guy.
Yeah.
We're going to see that guy.
Yeah.
He should be here today.
It's going to be great.
All right.
So, as I mentioned, Bulldozer magazine is coming out April 28th.
Keep an eye out for that.
There's going to be a nice little really good compilation CD, which features some great bands from Los Angeles.
Okay.
Okay.
Exciter announced that they are reuniting all original members, correct?
Yes.
That's interesting.
I'm looking forward to that.
You more than me.
I am a heavy metal maniac.
So, Chester, why don't you hit it?

them the best.
I will be there April 19th.
I'm going to try and be in really good spirits.
I will not be on Valium.
Let's give him a hug.
Yay, Jimmy.
He saw that nightmare last fucking Friday.
We're keeping all drugs away from you tonight.
I can't believe I wanted to stab somebody.
You're Mexican.
That's natural.
We're working for the mafia.
How annoying was that fucking guy though, right?
I wish I knew his name.
I'd call him out.
I have a belt buckle knife.
I will stab you.
I think I even told him.
If anybody that was with me that night, why don't you text me?
I think I even told him, get away from me.
I was fucking not in a good mood.
But anyways, what a way to fuck up that plug.
Behold the monolith.
Night Demon, which is a fantastic band, which we've heard, right?
Watch House Will Be Played.
Oh man, we just heard from the top of the set, Exciter from Canada.
They're getting back together.
Should be fun.
It should be exciting.
Scott's not excited.
I'm an ex.
That's about all.
He's ambivalent.
They're good.
I like the first two rappers.
I'm just not that excited.
He's not going to drop his Game of Thrones date for Exciter.
I can dig it.
I'm on the same boat.
I love this.
Oh man.
Thank you, Lostronic.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
The name of that song we played was Heavy Metal Maniac from the record of the same name.
Pretty awesome.
Yeah, I was Heavy Metal Maniac on Friday.
On Valium.
How does that work?
You were a heavy something.
Yeah, heavy biscuit.
After that we heard Night Demon, the name of the song Ritual.
Great band.
I like them.
After that we heard Behold the Monolith, Bull Colossi, from the record Defender, Redeem Us.
Coming back to the Shades, man.
April 19th.
This is going on at the Complex in Glendale.
This is a birthday party for Dan Dismal.
Again, this is a very special show, so let's all come out and support Behold the Monolith.
Oh, quickly, Cabs.
A couple days before that, OM is playing at the Center for the Arts in Eagle Rock, which is very convenient for me, because I can walk up there, and I'm going to go to the show very stoned.
Yeah, and as I mentioned before, I think Chester, should come along, too, because...
Are you going to OM, Chester?
Oh, he's on the phone.
Chester's like, I got better things to do than talk to you fools.
Jerk off.
Pink Parrot's going to be playing on the 18th.
That's going on at the Satellite.
This is interesting.
Harasser's going to be playing Monday, April 14th.
This is going to be at the Handbag Factory.
That's another great band you should go check out.
Yeah.
But tonight...
Tonight.
Tonight.
This is very important.
This is going to be really a clash of generations.
I agree.
It is.
And it's going to be really, what I would like to say, a full-on assault on this fucking poser's sunset strip fucking facade.
And the best band to do it, the best bands to be doing this.
Real music versus garbage.
Cool.
Iron Reagan.
There you go.
Occultist.
Witchaven.
Dude.
What more do you want, man?
If you weren't around when the heyday, when old-ass Jimmy and I were there, this is the show to be part of tonight.
I can't believe that.
We...
You know what?
And we're going tonight.
You and I and...
We're all going.
I know.
I'm going to let you out.
I was getting to you.
We're going to be there.
See, that's why I'm looking at him because I want his recognition.
He gives a me for, you know, not tucking him in bed at night and all that fun stuff.
And then...
I follow you...
This is what I get, dude.
I talk...
I follow you on Facebook and Instagram and you never respond back to me.
I don't know what I do to hurt you.
I don't know, man.
I don't know.
We need couples counseling.
See, like, I get...
I get accused...
I get accused of being too revealing.
I get accused of being too...
Lost Johnny, like, you know, you don't...
People want to know what's up with you, man.
No.
He's one of the great, great guys.
By the way, Lost Johnny will be taking over the very manic ship.
He will be hosting a couple of shows.
I'm going to be taking off for a while to deal with my mental illness and God knows what else.
So I want to thank each and every one of you for...
Especially the people that were sending me out and sending me private messages.
Thank you all for your concern.
I am well physically and I will soon be well mentally.
And as the shirt says, Jimmy Cavs must die, but he will not die.
As the Ramones song, Too Tough to Die will be applied to you.
Oh, they all died of cancer, fucker.
Not DD.
DD overdose.
But hey, let's not get technical.
Jimmy, I've known you for far too long.
You're a friend.
You're a brother.
Take care of your fucking self.
Get better.
Because we need you here.
We don't need you.
We don't need you in hell with Venom and Slayer and all that stuff.
We need you here.
So get better.
We're not spring chickens anymore, but just do what you gotta do to get yourself better.
Seriously, brother.
It's a long term.
I love you.
I love all of you too.
All right.
Just so you guys know that since next week, I will be manning the ship.
It is also not only Easter.
It is actually...
Oh, it's 420.
Wait, I'll be here for that show.
It's 420.
It's our birthday show.
I am the second coming of Christ.
There you go.
You should come join us for the fucking pot show.
I could be so hungover on my birthday.
Are you kidding me?
I'm gonna be at home.
Lost Johnny will be manning the show next week.
I'll be sitting in cold pot because I'm gonna be hitting that bomb.
Yeah, me too.
Because I need it.
I need it.
You know, and if Scott does come, he needs to bring the cryptic slaughter pussy wagon because...
Oh.
I didn't talk about that.
That doesn't exist no more.
He's alone.
I'll work that out.
All right.
Let me quickly deter that.
Let me move from that one.
I can't.
I can't.
The other day, I was going through, as you know, I'm a collector slash hoarder.
The other day, I was going through some shit and I discovered some cassette tapes and one of them...
What are those?
Yeah, I know.
What is that?
One of them was very interesting.
I found a band called Fastway which features members from Humble Pie.
Okay.
Great band.
Motorhead and UFO.
With that, I'm gonna leave you with this song.
I wanna thank each and every one of you for listening.
Say what you will.
I wanna thank the guys from Goosebump.
I wanna thank the guys from Occultist.
I wanna thank the poor kids.
I wanna thank all of you.
With that, live free, live healthy, live happy.
Long live Jimmy Cabs.
Do what you gotta do to be happy, literally, okay?
And if you find yourself drowning, whether it's physically or mentally, reach out for help.
With that, thank you for listening.
