INTERVIEWS & FEATURES
“He is the world’s top guitar player of his generation. I can say that with all honesty, because I know everybody and I’ve played with everybody,” says Glenn Hughes about working with Joe Bonamassa on the eye-popping new Black Country Communion album. Buckcherry front man Josh Todd tells us all about his hard-hitting new band The Conflict, Toby Jepson returns with his fantastic new act Wayward Sons, Threshold are back with a new but old singer, and we sit down with true supergroup Gizmodrome. Also this month, Black Stone Cherry have the blues and we interview Epica, Steelheart, Leprous, Serious Black, Lionheart, Da Vinci, Alpha Tiger, Novelists, and Voodoo Six.
