you find any limitations when you first
came out or did you feel like everyone
accepted you in the Cleveland scene
DESTRUCTOR accepted us DESTRUCTOR
first one that invited us to their home yeah to
where they practice and everything and that's well
documented pictures of them smashing
guitars first drinking shots of Jack
Daniels bottles of dead carcasses of
fifths of bottles of Jack Daniels scattered
across the practice for DESTRUCTOR
I have those
moments like this the doctors say that
happens he called it metal he said Siki, you got a bad case of heavy metal and I had to tell
a doctor as I looked into your eyes there
you viewers and listeners I said doc that aint
bad that's a good thing so anyhows
you're killing me
so how did you meet Dennis Dread from Wyrd War Records?
I come into contact with Dennis Dread
who I call Judge Dread that's where I
type it out and stuff you know yeah I
met Dennis through Jamie from MIDNIGHT okay
Dennis was a fan of BLACK DEATH also and
Jamie is a really big fan of BLACK DEATH
matter of fact we're gonna have to come
and visit you someday Jamie I hear
you've got quite the audio archive don't
ya now?
He's got a whole basement filled with stuff
if you telling me he's got a whole
basement full of BLACK DEATH then I'm finna
call the cops
that's stalker shit Jamie's been simply a
peach you know he's been beautiful cuz ah he's
helped us so far as getting a few gigs
you know out of town yeah to get you
know and that's beautiful love him much
okay and we have a project that we're
gonna be doing
sometime in the future oh really uh yeah
come to my attention he wrote some songs
specifically they'd like me to play
and sing on and then also I'm looking for new
crew members for the USS BLACK DEATH
RESURRECTED yes I'm a Star Trek fan and
shit and I you can call me a Trekkie
but also I can't show you all
this but the receding hairline like
Jean-Luc Picard okay so anyways Dennis got in touch
with us and had us invite us out there
to come and play in Portland Oregon July
4th for this on the East End I
think it's burned down now but it was like
what the Agora is here in Cleveland yeah it's
their local venue kind of right right
exactly and with a lot of history
mm-hmm legendary accident blah blah
coming there I remember seeing the
pictures on the wall we had just got
finished with building with all the
songs for BLACK DEATH "Return Of The Iron Messiah"
record okay okay but it was just raw
unmixed blah blah and I just wanted him
to hear to see what he thought of it
oh and by the way we tore it up there in
Portland and it left beyond a shadow of doubt
with me that I no longer had to question
whether or not if people knew this band
knew BLACK DEATH wanted to hear BLACK
DEATH and blah blah because that was so
far the largest crowd that we played for
how many people? do you know?
well they blocked off the street honey
 really yeah and it was then when
we came to get on stage I didn't think it
was that many people but when we got
ready to get on stage to play wall to
wall from the front of the stage back
Dennis Dread was a also a fan aficionado of
BLACK DEATH wanted to see it resurrected
but also wanted to see if it was worth it where we
were at to see if you guys wanted to keep it going
yeah yeah could even do it and then
after listening to the demo of the
"Return of the Iron Messiah" album yeah he got hyped
Dennis I can't say enough about
him and his lovely wife Mother Metals
I know yeah Tiffany I know you say medals with
a D but god dammit this is heavy metal
medals with a D?
like them cute little critters on South Park
but they was really deadly serial killers
we like to also say you come and you
subscribe to this and you know what the
name of this channel is this is the
Heavy Metal Relics show and you god damn
bloody well better tune it every god damn week and check it out
cuz you never know when I'll be back
