PHIL ANSELMO On His Love For BLACK SABBATH – “TONY IOMMI Is One Of The Most Genuinely Awesome Sweethearts In This Music Business”; Audio

Superjoint recently unleashed the debauched fruit of their Caught Up In The Gears Of Application full-length. Their first proper studio offering in over a decade, the thirty-eight-minute punisher spews forth an acrimonious crossover of hardcore punk, metal, and uncompromising, antagonistic, New Orleans-style angst.

Superjoint was resurrected in 2015 after the original band broke up a decade earlier. At the behest of the late Corey Mitchell, co-founder of The Housecore Horror Film Festival, Superjoint founders Phil Anselmo, Jimmy Bower (Down, Eyehategod), and Kevin Bond (Christ Inversion, Artimus Pyledriver) joined forces with longtime comrades, drummer José “Blue” Gonzalez (Warbeast, Philip H. Anselmo & The Illegals), and bassist Stephen Taylor (Philip H. Anselmo & The Illegals, Woven Hand, 16 Horse Power). A new era of the band was born.

Phil Anselmo guests on Episode #277 of One On One With Mitch Lafon, streaming below. In the show’s only interview, Anselmo discusses the band’s new album, his love for Black Sabbath, sobriety, working on multiple upcoming albums, and much more.

Listen to “1on1 Mitch Lafon – 278 Phil Anselmo (Superjoint)” on Spreaker.

Caught Up In The Gears Of Application was recorded at the famed Nodferatu’s Lair, produced by Superjoint co-founder Philip H. Anselmo (Down, Pantera, Scour, Philip H. Anselmo & The Illegals, Arson Anthem) and Stephen Berrigan (Down, Philip H. Anselmo & The Illegals, Eyehategod, Haarp, Classhole), and mastered by Scott Hull (Agoraphobic Nosebleed, Pig Destroyer) at Visceral Sounds.
