#018: Keith Coombes and Richard Johnson

Keith from Ernie November in Cheyenne invited B Lo to host Metalix live at his store in Cheyenne, WY.

Keith says Allegaeon is asking too much if each member expects to make $51 thousand annually as a metal band. B Lo believes Allegaeon’s crowdfunding effort has been misrepresented in metal blogs, leading to unfair attacks from the rest of the metal community.

Wyoming City Councilman Richard Johnson believes voters can make a bigger difference locally than they can on a federal level. Johnson is a lifelong member of the Cheyenne community, a skilled skateboarder and devout political nonconformist.

#017: Allout Helter

Ross, Ryan and Shook from Allout Helter talk about bridging the gaps between punk, hardcore and metal. If nothing else, bands from all genres should appreciate samples from Ghostbusters.

Even today’s climate of scene unity could not prevent at least some awkwardness when B Lo saw Slayer with NOFX and New Found Glory at Riot Fest 2014.

A replay from earlier in 2016, before Metalix had a Podcast.
