Jason Hook on Corey Taylor, Metallica, success and starting over with Flat Black
Flat Black guitarist/mastermind Jason Hook and I nerd out on Metallica, Kiss, and guitars. Flat Black just released their new album Dark Side of Your Brain, which features a collab with the great Corey Taylor, so he tells me how that friendship formed. He tells me about the grueling process of picking the right vocalist for the band and how he landed on Wrex Horton, former bassist of Falling in Reverse. Speaking of, Jason is also of course the former guitarist for Five Finger Death Punch, so we get into that a bit.
