A six page interview with M.O.D.'s Michael Arellano, aka Mike
Fury. Mike talks about all the bands he's in, but mainly
focussing on being the drummer of Spirit Adrift and of course
M.O.D.! Mike took the time and as a result it is a very

One week from today! The big
show in New Jersey! March 14, 2020 at The Wellmont Theater.
Rob Moschetti about this upcoming show: "There is something
very cool about next weeks show with Overkill. I was a fan of
M.O.D. and Overkill in the late 80s. The first time l saw both
bands was at LaMours in Brooklyn on the same bill. That was 32
years ago. 3 years after that show, as an envious fan, l was in
the band. To share the stage with Overkill as a member of M.O.D.
is a full circle event in my life. I hope to see you all there
to share this moment with me."

In March 2018 I interviewed new
M.O.D. guitarplayer Jason French. Last January I spoke with
rejoined bassplayer Rob Moschetti. But although we've met a few
times in 2014, I never did a real interview with drummer Michael
Arellano who's in M.O.D. for 6 years already! So it was finally
time now to also do a proper interview with M.O.D. drummer
MICHAEL ARELLANO!
"I wouldn't be where I'm at today if it wasn't
for the Texas Hardcore scene."
Rob Moschetti recently
rejoined M.O.D.! That's awesome news! Here's a short interview
with Rob in which he explains when and why he was asked to
become the 'new' bassplayer and what future plans for M.O.D.
are...
