The Isolation Sessions: Vol. 18 - Phil Demmel. (Vio-Lence. BPMD. Ex: Machine Head. Torque)

Summary: The Isolation Sessions: Volume 18!!! The last in this series that I did during the Coronavirus pandemic of 2020. I close this out with the legendary Phil Demmel! Founder and guitarist of "Vio-Lence", "BPMD", ex "Machine Head", "Technocracy" and singer for "Torque". This was another one of those episodes that I never thought I'd ever have a chance to do. My teenage years (and still to this day), "Vio-Lence" was a big part of my soundtrack. We go right into the upcoming new "Vio-Lence" record. We talk about "BPMD", his side project with Bobby Blitz from "Overkill", Mike Portnoy from "Dream Theater" and Marc Menghi from "Metal Allegiance". Their debut record, "American Made" is available now. It's a record of 70's rock songs with a metal twist. We talk about his departure from "Machine Head" after a sixteen year run with them as well as him getting a text from Kerry King from "Slayer" asking him if we could fill in for Gary Holt for a few dates on their final leg of their final tour. Phil Rules. I hope you enjoy this.
