It's the 20TH episode of Pedal To The Metal radio the podcast and we decided to do something a little different for this particular episode. We have an amazing shout out from Asking Alexandria's Sam Bettley and we still have our Unsigned Band of the week segment for this week. This week's Unsigned band comes all the way from Norway and it is One and A Half Dog where we check out their amazing track Fire In The Hole. Then we get into the special part of the episode where we dig into my treasure chest of past interviews that I have done and this week we are checking out the interviews we did with Eyes Set To Kill, Mark Heylmun of Suicide Silence, and The Dillinger Escape Plan at the 2010 Vans Warped Tour. We hope you enjoy this special episode of the show.
