HENRY ROLLINS AND IAN MACKAYE: LAUNCH NEW PROJECT

 

 

 

 HENRY ROLLINS (formally of BLACK FLAG and THE HENRY ROLLINS BAND) and IAN MACKAYE (formally of MINOR THREAT and FUGAZI) are launching a new, as of yet, unnamed project. More details T.B.A. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

FROM 23 PUNK: 

 

Former Black Flag vocalist Henry Rollins has spoken about a project involving his longtime friend Ian MacKaye (Fugazi, Minor Threat). Rollins shared some hints about the project, saying that he and MacKaye went to a studio in Washington DC where they worked on a four-song session, and that he is currently working on the artwork for the record.

Henry Rollins wrote:

"Weeks ago, I journeyed it to DC in order to work on a great project. Ian MacKaye and I went to Inner Ear Studios, where we made our first records decades ago and mixed a four song session with the great Don Zientara at the board. This is the same studio, where the Teen Idles, Minor Threat, Bad Brains, and many others recorded. It was amazing to be back there with Ian and Don. Part way through the mix, none other than Eddie Janney, he of the Untouchables, Rites Of Spring, One Last Wish, Happy Go Licky, Skewbald and other great bands joined us. The session benefited greatly by his presence. As to the tracks, I had them mastered several days ago, and I’m now working on the layout and design for the record. When it’s ready, I’ll let you know. We are extremely excited by this one."

ROGER MIRET (AGNOSTIC FRONT): INTERVIEWED BY INTO THE NECROSPHERE

 

 

 

 ROGER MIRET, vocalist for NEW YORK HARDCORE legends AGNOSTIC FRONT was recently interviewed by  INTO THE NECROSPHERE

 FROM INTO THE NECROSPHERE : 

 

This week, I’m honoured to host a true icon: Roger Miret, the legendary frontman of New York hardcore pioneers Agnostic Front. We dive deep into the band's highly anticipated upcoming album, Echoes In Eternity (out November 7th), the making of the phenomenal 2017 documentary The Godfathers Of Hardcore, and the stories behind four decades of NYHC grit and glory.

On the Weekly News Rant, I round up the latest singles by Paganizer, Blut Aus Nord, Samael, Miasmata, Hellripper and others for judgment. Plus, my take on Megadeth covering Metallica on their farewell record, dorks asking their comrades’ opinion on whether a band is “sketch” and more.

PLUS, Bozeman, Montana’s Galvanist bring the pain on this week’s Unsanctioned Filth segment.
