John Gallagher of Raven Kicks Off 2025 on Talkin’ Rock Download

28:42 Download January 17th

Kicking off 2025 with an interview with John Gallagher of Raven. They have a new EP coming out on February 14th. It features five new songs and three live tracks, all from different decades. He told me about the songs, and one he said is the heaviest song Raven has ever done. 

John also told me they’re well into working on new music, so it sounds like they have a lot of material ready to go. 

We discussed their early tours, taking Metallica on the raid, the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, and the bands they influenced. As far as the NWOBHM was concerned, that era didn’t last long, but it did produce some legendary bands. 

You can watch this interview on the RIFF TV section of wrif.com to see some of John’s classic basses, as he pulled a couple of them out. 

It’s a great way to kick off 2025 on Talkin’ Rock!
