Welcome to this weeks episode of Heavy Metal History. My guest this week is Nick Lee, guitar player of New York based band Moon Tooth! Nick’s intriguingly unique guitar playing style struck me immediately upon hearing the bands 2016 release “Chromaparagon” and if I had the podcast going back then I would have had him on immediately. But here we are two years later and the stars aligned with Nick coming on the podcast to discuss the bands upcoming release “Crux”
Nick and I discuss working with Mark Morton from Lamb of God as well as “Machine” aka Gene Freeman for the pre-production work on “Crux” we discuss many other topics like his guitar playing, his early metal influences and the history and beginnings of the band Moon Tooth!
The word “Crux” is defined as the “decisive or most difficult point of an issue.” The album ‘Crux’ tells the story of the band at this crucial point: where the past must die so new life can begin.
‘Crux’ is due out early 2019 on the soon to be launched, Modern Static Records. Official release date and pre-order info TBA very soon.
