A new episode of the Gibson TV YouTube series METAL AND MONSTERS has just been released ... and it is a TEXAS SIZED show! Metal and Monsters host Count D interviews longtime friends Rex Brown (Pantera) and Dug Pinnick (Kings X) as they reunite for an evening of stories surrounding friendship, music, and their Texas roots. Filmmaker, director, producer, and actor Roger Corman is also featured in special segment with an intimate interview reflecting on his early career. 

This is the third episode in the series which is dedicated to heavy metal and monster culture. Metal and Monsters can be viewed for FREE on the YouTube Gibson TV channel or at Gibson.com. I'm always GEEKED when a new episode of Metal and Monsters is released! 

In addition to his off the cuff conversations with the Metal rockers from Pantera and Kings X, Count D also includes a music focused segment "Tunes from The Crypt" that details the history of the landmark album “Leprosy” from Florida death metal legends Death. Viewers also have the chance to win several different Death prizes including CDs, vinyl, t-shirts, Halloween masks and two exclusive Death skateboards courtesy of Check Your Head Skateboards.

Known as “The King of Cult” and “The Pope of Pop Cinema,” famed director and producer Roger Corman is featured in a segment titled “Exhumed From The Tomb.” Not only is Roger responsible for films including The Raven, Little Shop of Horrors, The Fast & The Furious and Death Race 2000, but he is also credited for launching the careers of film legends Jack Nicholson, Ron Howard, Sylvester Stallone, Martin Scorsese, and Francis Ford Coppola.
