J-Bunny’s Music Hub Episode 55: Chmcl Str8jckt/Handsome Abominations (Kevin Snell, Ian Omega, Mistress Misha, Craig Niebuhr, John Bechdel, Sandy Datcher) 2-21-2021

For this episode I went to Chmcl Str8jckt Headquarters (and was of course, still drinking beer from Ghost Hawk Brewing co). I interviewed Kevin Snell and Ian Omega of Chmcl St8jckt and Handsome Abominations, Craig Niebuhr (aka Traece Aether) and Mistress Misha also of Handsome Abominations, and their producer John Bechdel (Ministry, False Icons, Ascension of the Watchers). We discuss how both bands came together, what their names mean, and how the material differs between bands. We discuss how collaborating with Craig on the Chmcl Str8jckt song "The Death of Lucille" led to him being asked to join Handsome Abominations, and got to find out from each band member of Handsome Abominations how they feel about the project. John Bechdel and Sandy Datcher also explain why they like vinyl over CDs.
