#395: Mayhem's Attila Csihar

Mayhem vocalist Attila Csihar guests this week to discuss the
band's new EP, Atavistic Black Disorder/Kommando, which consists of
three new originals and four classic punk covers. Attila shares the
punk rock albums that shaped him in his youth, how he had to
smuggle music into communist Hungary while growing up there in the
early '80s, his first time meeting Dead Kennedys frontman Jello
Biafra, Discharge reacting to the Mayhem cover of their track, and
why he prefers today's audiences to the violent shows of the '80s.
Attila also relays how the pandemic has affected Mayhem, how they
plan to tour with ever-shifting rules in every country, and the
horror movie soundtrack he's working on with Greg Anderson of Sunn
O))). Petar, Brandon, and Sylvia discuss the mother that named her
children Metallica, Pantera and Slayer, Dave Mustaine running up
his Cameo price in under a week, and our thoughts on the upcoming
Woodstock '99 documentary. Thank you to our sponsor, Metal
Blade Records, for their continued support! Songs: Mayhem - “Voces
Ab Alta," “Everlasting Dying Flame," Mordred - “Demonic #7” Learn
