Guitarist “Metal” Mike Chlasciak (HALFORD, PAINMUSEUM, SEBASTIAN BACH) will guest on the “Headbanger’s Heaven” radio show with host Mike Gaube on 93.3 KDKB in Phoenix, Arizona tomorrow, October 18 at 7:00 p.m. MST. The program can be streamed live at www.kdkb.com.
“Headbanger’s Heaven”, which airs every Saturday night from 7:00 p.m. until midnight MST, is dedicated to preserving the best of hard rock and heavy metal from ’70s, ’80s and ’90s.
In a recent interview with Blogs N’ Roses, “Metal” Mike Chlasciak was asked if he finds writing material with Sebastian easy. “No, but that doesn’t necessarily mean I don’t like doing it,” he said. “But it’s not an easy process. The way I am coming at it, as a guitar player, I am used to writing a song, or at least a big chunk of it, then presenting it to a singer saying, ‘Here’s your song. Don’t mess with it. Don’t even sing over it.’ It has worked with me with Rob [Halford] and other people I have wrote with. Sebastian is extremely hands-on in every aspect of every note and every riff. He thinks of a million things at the same time, so it is difficult to get from Point A to Point B when you are in the moment. But when you look back, a little bit later, you say, ‘Well, I guess he was right.’ With Sebastian, it is more writing on the spot. I wouldn’t write a whole song from Point A to Point B and say, ‘Here is your song, sing on it.’ But that’s cool too because I can also see the good in that to work outside of the box I am used to. But I don’t want my answer to be a negative thing because it is absolutely not. It is just a different way of working for me, which I found different than what I am used to. So it is a little challenging, but I think it’s good. It works out like that.”
