39: Ep 42: Summer Fests & KISS Rant – Glorious Sons, Monster Truck, Shaman’s Harvest, Shinedown, Ace

Summer Fest Bands & KISS Rant: It’s summertime which means it’s also time for all day (or all weekend) music festivals. Bakko & LC feature some spectacular new music from bands at these fests and many KISS rants as we discuss the controversy of Bakko’s recent KISSMAS in July Decibel Geek articles and the laziness of Ace Frehley. Plus LC details a recent concert shenanigans involving all-female AC/DC tribute Hells Belles and a vanishing Gene Simmons from a KISS cover band with the worst band name ever. We also shoehorn in some classic AC/DC and we kick it off with a new track featuring Brian Johnson. Music featured: Glorious Sons, Monster Truck, Shaman’s Harvest, Shinedown, Ace, AC/DC, Jim Breur and more.

Shaun McCoy is a co-lead singer of the band Bobaflex. The two frontmen, brothers Shaun and Marty McCoy, trade guitar and lead vocals, depending on the song.

Charlatan’s Web was released in 2013 and the band toured and released videos for, “Bad Man”, “Never Coming Back”, “I’m Glad You’re Dead”, and “Losing My Mind”, the latter of which was the band’s first animated music video.
