“I happen to like Rock & Roll and feel sorry for anyone who only listens to one form of music.” Ice-T is a national treasure and has always had a rock n’ rebel attitude, sampling War Pigs on the first track of his debut rap album to forming the hardcore punk/metal band Body Count influenced by Suicidal Tendencies and Black Sabbath.
On this Ep, we give you the full Iceberg, not just the tip. Ice-T started a new genre as the OG of gangsta rap, collaborated with Slayer and Motörhead, on the lineup of the first Lolapalooza (91), starred in the ridiculous Breakin’ 2 Electric Boogaloo and the ambitious New Jack City, and gone from fighting Tipper Gore/PMRC,
and vilified by George Bush with the controversial track “Cop Killer” to as mainstream as being on a Geico commercial and Law & Order SVU for two decades. Love him or hate him, join two middle class Caucasians (LC & Joey Haynie) as we cover a truly unique and fascinating American success story.
Note. This Ep has more references to Journey and Color Me Badd then one would expect.

Marilyn Manson. The LAST Shock Rocker. Bakko, LC, and Gene return to bust balls and complete the “3 Hits From Hell” trilogy covering Manson’s 1998 album Mechanical Animals which debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200. This album had a major shift from the “Antichrist Superstar” sound with a glam rock approach and a new “androgynous alien” image. Manson moved from Satan, to something ever scarier – DRUGS. We break down the cultural significance, controversy, and impact that Manson had during his reign as the last Shock Rocker. HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Mas Dope!

We got a surprise for you tonight! We got Skid Row song writer, bassist and all around good guy on for an interview. We talk about his career, punk rock and his recent induction into the RockGodz Hall Of Fame. We promise. This is fun.

The RockGodz Hall of Fame is an event that brings recognition to the musicians who built the legacy of rock music, honoring incredible artists and their work. Rock and roll legends will honor their own during a celebration of music with passion and talent at its core, spotlighting the lesser-known musicians who built the legacy of rock music.

All RockGodz Hall of Fame inductees are selected by inductee alumni, their peers, which continues to make the organization highly respected by the music community.

RACHEL BOLAN
Rachel Bolan is the co-founder and songwriter for the band SKID ROW. Rachel realized that he wanted to be a performer at a very young age when he went to see Liberace with his parents and Grandmother. “I was only 5 years old, but was taken aback by the energy that filled the venue” Rachel said. It was after that moment he began listening to all the records that his brother and sisters owned. The first record he purchased was The Rolling Stones – Sticky Fingers. It changed his life. After that he was turned on to the likes of Alice Cooper, Kiss, Sex Pistols and Ramones to name a few. His first gig was in 1978 at Manasquan high school in Manasquan, NJ. In 1986 Rachel met Snake and the rest is history. Outside of Skid Row, Rachel produces other bands and writes songs for other artists, sports teams and with Snake writes music for ESPN.
