#295: 3Teeth Vocalist Alexic Mincolla

3Teeth frontman Alexis Mincolla is our guest this week. We discuss
the band's upcoming album Metawar, the intensity of watching a
performer do a 24-hook body suspension for the band's "Exxxit"
music video and the inherent value of self destruction and how
it can be empowering. Mincolla also tells us about his education
and background in political science, his stance on the Bush
Administration in comparison to our current President, how
political theater in this era is similar to that of the WWE, the
dystopian Hollywood visions that are currently coming to fruition,
how we've gotten away from the world Mr. Rogers presented to us,
how power generates corruption and human nature's inability to
overcome it, and what our culture can learn from superheroes and
supervillains. Petar and Brandon tackle the anniversary of
Slipknot’s debut record, the metal scene and concerts of that time
and era, and the one year anniversary of the passing of metal
legend Vinnie Paul Abbott. Songs: 3Teeth - “Exxxit” and 3Teeth -
“Affluenza” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
