DEVIL'S ISLAND featuring Karnage Through Crossing
Welcome to this weeks edition of Devil's Island! Every week we maroon a band or artist on the island and see what they get up to, how they cope with being all alone on a small island in the middle of the ocean. It's not your average desert island and we'll see just how each person copes with the extreme conditions.
This week when we arrived at Devil's Island we find Karnage Through Crossing sat on the beach. The island is far from their home, so how did they end up here and how did they cope with life on Devil's Island?
Find out now...
Welcome to The Razors'e Edge and our somewhat lovely, warm desert island. Don't worry about it's name I'm sure it's not as bad as that would suggest.
You're marooned here on this island, but before you ended up shipwrecked you chose one album that you couldn't live without. Which album did you each chose and why?
Rhyse would choose Painkiller by Judas Priest because he never gets bored of the music and its energy would be the only thing to keep him from killing everyone when the starvation hits. Ashton would choose Death Magnetic by Metallica. That was the first ever concert hr went to. It has so many good memories tied into it from learning to drum the whole album to bonding with his dad over the music at the concert.
Just behind that palm tree is a shack for each of you to stay in, with enough space for you to put up a poster on the wall of one album cover. What album cover do you each chose?
Rhyse chooses the Painkiller album poster because it's super badass to look at and it would encourage him to push when hope gets lost. Ashton chooses the Iowa album by Slipknot because that's his favorite album.
There's also a bar on this here island. But alas each of you only get to choose one drink for the entirety of your stay. What's your tipple of choice?
Rhyse chooses a jack and Cola, Ashton chooses a PBR lager.
Your suitcases were lost when your ship sank, but you each managed to salvage one item of band merch. What’s the merch and for what band?
Rhyse Salvages his Lawless Forever WASP shirt, Josh salvage his Cannibal Corpse shirt, and Ashton salvages his Slipknot shirt.
You’re sat on the island thinking “I’m stuck here on this island with my bandmates for eternity”… who would you rather have been shipwrecked with?
Gilligan's Island baby, send in the hotties!
There's a walkman in your pocket, on the tape inside is the recording of the one live show that stands out for you. It could be any show, from any band, anywhere in the world. What show is on that walkman?
Live in Moscow 1991
You're getting desperate, you decide the only course of action is to put a message in a bottle and hope someone finds it. Your message could be to any member of any band, but should be the most suitable for a rescue attempt. Who is it?
Honestly, only because it would have to be someone super caring, ambitious, with influence to convince those with resources to send help, I'm going to go with Dee Snider. He fought in court for rock n roll, hopefully he'd fight to save our souls.
You've been stuck here a while and food supplies are running low. There's only one thing for it... which fellow band member gets sacrificed to help the others survive?
Sorry bass guitarist, RIP!
Finally, when the ship sank you each managed to save one person from the wreckage. That person is the one musician that has influenced your career the most, shaped your way of thinking and your outlook on life. Who did you save?
Ronnie James Dio, Alex Webster, and Jorey Jordison
