Casey Carrano joins us this week to talk about his time in Dr Acula, as well as his band beginnings with Bubbles & later bands Vulture and Refuge. We nerd out about anime, collectables and his recent trading card venture Slam Slabs. NJ metal & hardcore scene, a whole lot of shoutouts, Victory Records (lol), this one was laughs from start to finish.
