Dirtfedd formed in 2002 in Lincoln, Nebraska, quickly gaining a reputation for their aggressive style and wild live shows. In 2006, Slipknot’s M. Shawn “Clown” Crahan took notice, producing their debut album The American Nightmare (2008) on E1 Music/Sopra Evil. Dirtfedd went on to tour nationally, sharing the stage with Slipknot, Korn, Slayer, Deftones, Lamb of God, and many more. They appeared on the Rockstar Mayhem Festival and the first Knotfest in 2012 before disbanding in 2014. In this episode, we chat with Brock Wettstead, drummer of Dirtfedd, about getting signed, what it was like working with Clown in the studio, and being on the Knotfest and Mayhem tours.
