Episode 35: Manic Abraxas

Pity the fool who tries to sum up Manic Abraxas in three or four words. Taking major inspiration from the genre-hoping Celtic Frost, Manic Abraxas draw whatever influences they please into their petrol-soaked stew of dirty, chugging, psychedelic hard rock... or is it metal? You can decide for yourself. With founder Dallas Seger on guitars/vocals/synths alongside Justin Hamm on bass/vocals/synth and Tom Bennett on drums, the band recently released their sci-fi-inspired Skinformation album. Dallas and Justin join me to discuss the record, working with mentor Steve Austin of Today is the Day and some of their other inspirations.
