Björn “Speed” Strid (The Night Flight Orchestra, Soilwork) on The MetalSucks Podcast #404
Björn “Speed” Strid of The Night Flight Orchestra and Soilwork is back on the show! We start out by discussing the brand new album from The Night Flight Orchestra, Aeromantic II; why they released standalone singles that are not on the record, the entire band catching Covid-19 after their last tour in March of 2020, why there would not have been a new album if not for Covid-19, the band’s plans on investing in a tour at this stage of the pandemic, his view on how Sweden handled the pandemic with only restrictions and no lockdowns, why he feels sometimes Sweden is a very spoiled country, and how The Night Flight Orchestra started as a side project but has since become so much more.
Petar, Brandon, and Sylvia discuss Corey Taylor’s son’s thoughts on Joey Jordison’s passing, the rumor of John Corabi replacing Vince Neil on the Motley Crüe stadium tour, and the drama between Bad Wolves and former lead singer Tommy Vext.
Thank you to our sponsor, Metal Blade Records, for their continued support!
Songs: The Night Flight Orchestra – “Burn For Me” and “Chardonnay Nights”
