Many laughs were had during my conversation with Mark Menghi and OVERKILL's Bobby Blitz as we discussed their upcoming covers album. They combine their pent up energy to present the METAL ALLEGIANCE continuation dubbed BPMD, an acronym that stands for the 4 corners of this new supergroup; Bobby Blitz, Mike Portnoy, Mark Menghi and Phil Demmel. Going through the record collection of some lost classics in American Rock with a new raw take on their release AMERICAN MADE.
Reliving the classic rock tunes never gets old. Now more than ever, we're going back into the vault and reliving the memories off the tunes that shaped us who we are today. When you get some of today's prime players along with yesterday's veterans who are still currently influencing musicians and music fans alike, to come together and bust out some classics is a moment that needed to be captured and is bound to pick your spirits when it's most needed.
Hitting the virtual shelves on June 12th through Napalm Records, AMERICAN MADE is 10 tracks of classic tunes from AEROSMITH, ZZ TOP, MOUNTAIN, LYNYRD SKYNYRD, GRAND FUNK and more. Tuned up to give you that much needed pick-me-up, you'll have a good time listening to these covers by some great players.
