Bryan Giles - Red Fang

This week's episode features Bryan Giles of Red Fang who are best known as Portland’s loudest, beer-soaked institution—riff lords, viral video trailblazers, and all-around heavy music legends. Bryan brings us his often humorous take on his 10-ish year old rescue "attention hound" Boon, his previous dog Fender and his early childhood dachshund Fritzy. Great talk from a cool and good-humored guy. Red Fang is kicking off their 20th-anniversary celebrations with the March 14 release of Deep Cuts, an extensive 26-song collection of non-album tracks, covers, and previously unreleased singles.
