Issue 159

INTERVIEWS & FEATURES

Welcome to the crazy world of Ted Nugent. He says, “I’m not looking for meaningful judgment from people who haven’t the faintest idea of who I am. These people are obviously driven by an agenda that hates America, and if you hate America, then you know what I want? I want you to hate me, because I am America!” Sepultura surprise us with a departure from their usual style on their latest album, Michael Kiske takes us on a spiritual trip through Place Vendome’s new offering, and Eden’s Curse share the story of their bumpy ride to success. Plus we talk to Monster Magnet, Ayreon, Onslaught, Stryper, David Reece, and Mystic Prophecy and we introduce new names in the shape of Primitai, American Fangs, and Red’scool.
