The Story Behind: Rocket from the Crypt - Scream, Dracula, Scream, Ep. 249

Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. Rocket from the Crypt was touted by some as "the next Nirvana", but John Reis (aka Speedo) just wanted to put on the highest energy, best rock and roll show the world had ever seen. The fellas welcome an expert in the field (of John Reis) and discuss pompadours, spinning carnival wheels, and the showmanship of punk music overall.
