#462 - Dave Lombardo (Testament, Dead Cross)

The MetalSucks Podcast

On this special Halloween edition of The MetalSucks Podcast, we've scared up one Hell of an interview, as we've got the legendary Slayer/Testament/Dead Cross drummer Dave Lombardo back behind the mic! In this week's episode, we chat with the legendary drummer as we discuss his role in helping complete the second Dead Cross album, why it's important to be a glass half full person, and some of Mike Patton's live antics on the first Dead Cross North American tour.

We also get down to talking about how important it is for artists to sometimes navigate through issues that everyone can relate to, the power of listening to the right album at the right time in life, watching bandmate Mike Crain defeat cancer while recording II, and his gratitude to the fan base for gravitating to any of the albums he's performed on throughout his career.

This show also features Petar and Sylvia discussing the week's biggest news, including Bruce Dickinson’s on stage meltdown over some weed smoke at an Iron Maiden show, Dez Fafara's take on Dickinson’s comments, Serj Tankian’s disinterest in doing a System of a Down tour, and John 5 is now a member of Motley Crue.
