Not long is Jibbies back from his jaunt across the pond to Austria and it’s Loond’s turn to head for Turkey where he attends Sonisphere Istanbul, catches a set by local Istanbul Metal hero’s - Murder King, and interviews their drummer - Onur Akca. The guys discuss upcoming and highly anticipated new material from Machine Head and are psyched about the “an evening with Amon Amarth” tour. Jibbies mentions Wino’s new band, Premonition 13 and the magnitude of it’s awesomness. Jibbies also once again brings Michael Monroe into the conversation with the huge news of Dregen taking over on guitar duty from the departed Ginger. The duo’s differences in taste are reflected in Loond’s ineloquent geeking out over Possessed’s “Beyond The Gates & The Eyes Of Horror”, while Jibbies exclaims that he is un-moved by this particular blast from the past.
