INTERVIEWS & FEATURES
“Pussy, man, that’s all there is to talk about,” says Michael Starr in our interview with raunchy tongue-in-cheek glamsters Steel Panther. Ice Hockey, football and raucous rock music... it’s all part of life on the road with Monster Truck. Former Ratt front man and famed large lunch box owner Stephen Pearcy talks about his new solo album, his first for nine years. We also interview Firewind, Enuff Z’Nuff, Pride Of Lions, Attila, Red Sun Rising, White Widdow, Enbound, Boneyard Dog, Perzonal War, Rising Steel, and Forever Still, plus we’re blown away by new act Bad Touch and we reveal our top albums of 2016.
