This week on Third Eye Cinema: our “summer of metal” continues with Dan Cleary of Canadian traditional metal band Striker!

From their inception in 2007 to date, they’ve been carrying the torch of classic 80’s style metal, delivering a surprising mix of old school styles from British heavy rock and NWOBHM to Los Angeles glam to head splitting speed, all tied up in one melodic, chameleonlike package!

This week on Third Eye Cinema: prepare yourselves for a retro metal triple threat!

Finally, we present part 2 of our conversation with Chris Bennett of Widow, one of the earliest and still one of the best bands of the retro-traditional metal scene!

Starting way back in the late 90’s, Chris and John Wooten came out of the death metal scene with a then-unheard of passion for traditional 80’s metal, and over the course of four albums almost singlehandedly created a scene that is thriving to this day, out of their home base of Raleigh, NC!

This week on Third Eye Cinema: prepare yourselves for a retro metal triple threat!

Next on the menu: Jason Decay of Toronto retro-traditional melodic metal band Cauldron!

One of the first bands of the style in existence, Cauldron arose from the ashes of Goat Horn, a doom metal act dating back to the late 90’s who gradually evolved into a more traditional melodic sound!

This week on Third Eye Cinema: prepare yourselves for a retro metal triple threat!

First: we’ll be speaking with Alex Gutierrez of Mortillery, a brand new band exploding onto the retro-traditional thrash scene!

Formed just 3 years ago in 2009, Mortillery released only one EP before being picked up for their major label debut on Napalm Records!

With a background in punk and a clear and obvious love of classic 80’s San Francisco Bay Area thrash, Mortillery combines some seriously traditional stylings with some very modern touches (old school vets should be surprised to hear that half the band is female!) and is poised to take the metal scene by storm!

This week on Third Eye Cinema: we’re talking music!

Next up: we speak with wild man Jackie Slaughter of Skull Fist!  A former skatepunk who “saw the light” of fretboard worship, Jackie has come out of nowhere with a truly retro-traditional metal look and sound, all the more amazing for being produced in this day and age, by a band too young to have been there the first time around!

Fans of flashy guitar pyrotechnics ala TNT, Yngwie Malmsteen, Vinnie Vincent, Nitro, and Racer X must…and I mean MUST tune in for this one.
