This week on GIMME METAL:
Bongzilla Guest DJ Special – Bongzilla has decided to share their favorite holiday by plunking down a 4/20 guest DJ special hosted byMike “Muleboy” Makela himself! Extra cause to celebrate is Weedsconsin, the long-awaited followup to their 2005 classic Amerijuanican, as well as their first recording as a thunderous three-piece, with Makela moving from guitar to bass. Approaching songs as a trio has created more space in their songwriting, resulting in a crushing stomp along the lines of Gateway, while being sonically clearer and more inclined to mind-expanding jams. The Cannabeast has awoken! Join the festivities at 12:00pm PT/3:00pm ET on the GIMME METAL 1 channel, and another evening airing at 6:00pm PT/9pm ET on GIMME METAL 2! Hail, Bongzilla!
Katy Irizarry’s Bonded By Bud 420 Special – GIMME METAL welcomes a new episode from friend and Season Of Mist PR maven Katy Irizarry, who previously contributed the excellent Horrorscope program! Irizarry celebrates all things 4/20 in this new installment. Tune in 8:00am PT/11:00am ET on GIMME METAL 1 and once again at 7pm ET/4pm PT on Metal 2!
Tankcrimes Label Guest DJ Special – Based out of Oakland, California, Tankcrimes slogan is pure and simple: “hardcore, punk, rock, heavy metal for true freaks.” Indeed, the label has been part of GIMME METAL’s DNA since the inception, issuing forth into the world stellar releases by the likes of Necrot, Spazz, Brainoil, Cannabis Corpse, Dystopia, Mortuous, Ghoul, Los Huyacos, and many others. GIMME METAL is supremely psyched to have label head Scotty Heath finally take over the DJ console!
This week on GIMME METAL TV:
Alex’s 420 VJ Special – Continue the 420 festivities on GIMME METAL TV! GIMME METAL’s first VJ show carries on with its third episode hosted by GIMME’s own Alex Langill! He brings you the metal music videos you need from the land of legalized cannabis, flying hockey pucks, and maple syrup! As always, the loveable goofball makes every show funa and playful so don’t miss him in the Live Chat!
Behind The Wall O’ Doom: Zakk Sabbath Documentary Reairing – Back by popular demand! Zakk Sabbath is the Black Sabbath tribute band featuring guitarist/vocalist Zakk Wylde (Black Label Society, Ozzy Osbourne), bassist Blasko (Ozzy Osbourne, Rob Zombie), and drummer Joey Castillo (Danzig, Queens Of The Stone Age). Behind The Wall O’ Doom is the companion documentary to Zakk Sabbath’s Vertigo, a re-recording of Black Sabbath’s eponymous debut released last year in celebration of the record’s 50th anniversary. The songs were faithfully recorded in the spirit of the original – live in the studio and with a film crew documenting the process – culminating in a new celebration of the greatest heavy metal band of all time and the record that started it all. Behind The Wall O’ Doom takes a behind-the-scenes look at the recording and includes appearances by Ozzy Osbourne, Henry Rollins, and more! It’s a compelling documentary and you don’t need to be a Brigade Member to enjoy the whole thing so make sure to take advantage of this killer showing!
