GD- So this is the time to introduce Kill Allen Wrench to the unaware public....
Allen Wrench: Here’s some quick info on Punk Rock’s Most Important Band – Kill Allen Wrench… Kill Allen Wrench was formed by my while I was in a heroin rehab clinic in Hollywood, right about 1998. I wrote the entire ‘My Bitch is A Junky’ CD while I was in legal custody because of my heroin problems. Eventually they gave up on trying to ‘cure’ me and I was released. Once on the street, I formed the band. I had always been a part of the punk rock world and knew a lot of musicians. So, it wasn’t difficult to find members for my new project. The most prominent member of Kill Allen Wrench would be Dr. Heathen Scum of The Mentors. Dr. Heathen Scum, El Duce, and myself had been friends for a long time. For years we had gotten together and jammed out drunken and pot influenced rock and the ranch owned by Dr. Heathen Scum. He was happy to join the band. It was obvious that the Kill Allen Wrench project was going to be big. And it was no problem to acquire the other band members. Here’s our current line up: Allen Wrench: Vocals-Dr. Heathen Scum: Lead Guitar-Mariachi Mysterioso: Lead Guitar-The Prince of Punk/Mark Hernandez: Bass Junky-John Wohlfeil: Drums

GD- Your new full length CD is out now, I still haven't listened to it yet but I read on the website that it contains your best stuff to date and a total middle-finger trick to all of those who harass you about that Kurt Cobain/El Duce story.... tell us something about this new masterpiece!!
Allen Wrench: That’s right, our new CD is AVAILABLE NOW!!! It’s called ‘Full Metal Messiah’, and it’s the greatest follow up CD in the history of punk rock. All of the Kill Allen Wrench fans world wide will not be disappointed! The new CD is loaded with tons of instant Kill Allen Wrench classics. And yes, it does contain a few audio tracks that comment on the connection between Courtney Love, El Duce and myself. But I’m going to keep that part a secret in order to keep it a surprise for everyone that buys the record. Our first CD, “My bitch is a Junky” is a must have and so is the new one. It’s not possible to say that the new CD is better than the old one, or even the other way around. They’re both great CDs and any fan of true punk rock will think that they are the greatest things ever recorded! But keep in mind, all of the Kill Allen Wrench music is very difficult to find. But don’t forget, every thing is always available at www.killallenwrench.com

GD- How this "Satan-dressed-as-a-priest" look come about? I think it's very funny!!
Allen Wrench: My stage look is the product of total alcoholism! Well that the help of a very good friend of mine… Ken Banks also know as Dr. Banksenstein (www.kenstools.com). Ken Banks is a high end movie effects person that’s don’t work on some super major projects; Men in Black, Planet of The Apes, Buffy the Vampire slayer, Iron Maiden, Ozzy Osbourne and a ton of other stuff. The biggest thing he does are his theatrical teeth, and they cost about $500 a set. If I’m lucky, the custom made teeth he makes me last about 2 shows. But I’m really hard on them and they’re a special set up so that I’m able to sing with them in. I came up with the whole Allen Wrench look. I also sculpted the original horns. Every set I wear is made from them. But as far as movie and other special effects, Ken’s the guy!

GD- Now we all want to know how can you score so many groupies... do you have bitch-scouts or what??
Allen Wrench: Not at all. All the Kill Allen Wrench groupies are actual fans! Almost all of the photos on the web site are emailed to me from the girls themselves. Other photos are taken at our shows. We’re a band that has a lot of fun with our fans! And the girls that are Kill Allen Wrench fans are the most drinking, drug using, disgusting, slutiest girls on the planet! And we love them all! And for everyone that doesn’t know what we’re talking about, go to the Kill Allen Wrench web site (www.killallenwrench.com) and take a look at our GROUPIES section! You’ll see what we’re talking about.

GD- "The greatest punk rock band in the history of heavy metal"... please explain me better, do you feel like you're outcasts in the punk rock world or in the metal biz? Allen Wrench: We’re not outcasts in either, we’re hated by both! Just kidding, we actually walk the line between both. And we are a true cross over band. We’re a true punk rock band (but don’t confuse punk rock with ‘hardcore’) that has a little bit of a metal edge to it. It’s very difficult to describe, but we’ve got some good MP3s on the web site. So check them out. A lot of punk rock people get pissed off and call us a metal band. But that’s just because we play a lot of guitar leads. Guitar leads don’t necessarily mean that you’re a metal band. I would call us a punk rock band with a metal influence. But really, you’ll have to hear the music for yourself.

GD- In your first CD there's a picture showing you fighting a wrestling match in Mexico, are you still a fighter? What kind of wrestling circuit do you fight in?
Allen Wrench: I’m primarily a Judo fighter. Although I have done one ‘no rules’ fight in Mexico against the Mexico National kick boxing champion. That’s the photo from the ‘My bitch is a Junky’ CD. I’ve fought in a lot of Judo tournaments and I won the AAU Judo U.S. Nationals in 1997 (Masters division –210lbs). I’m currently training for the Masters World Championships that will be held next year in Japan. I’m expecting to get my ass kicked, but it will take quite a few years for me to get my skill level up that high to be effective at that level.

GD- Tell me something about the link between Kill Allen Wrench and the notorious ska-core band Voodoo Glow Skulls... this means you guys both partake groupies and drugs??
Allen Wrench: The Voodoo Glow Skulls are very good friends of ours. We’re from the same city and I’ve always been a big fan of their music. I’m sure they’ve go tons of their own groupies going on. We’ve palyed a few shows with them and the crowd was great. I know Jerry O’Neil is going crazy right now and fucking all the sluts! They’re a bunch of weed smoking fuck ups, so we really get a long with them on that level also. Voodoo glow skulls rock! As a matter of fact, on the American version of the upcoming “Mom I’m Fucking the Plumber” 7” Frank from The Voodoo Glow Skulls is doing the lead vocals on the My Bitch is A Junky song.

GD- What about the cover of "Mom, I'm fucking the plumber" 7" ep??
Allen Wrench: Isn’t that 7” great! What you’re talking about is the German release/version of the "Mom, I'm fucking the plumber" 7". That was released by my great friend Nick Wanker of Wanker Records (www.wanker-records.de). He’s a great guy! You can also order that 7” through his website. His people designed the cover and it came out great! It features two of our groupies in the middle of full on lesbian action! It’s great being an International Superstar!

GD- What about playing Europe?? I know you love Holland a lot... but knowing what you guys are about this is not surprising!! Are there new plans to come over again and performing a more extensive tour, like also coming down to Italy?? You'd rather play the States or Europe is better to you??
Allen Wrench: Oh yeah, we are definitely coming back to Europe again next year! MAD tourbooking is our Euoropean agent and they’re very cool and very good! Next year we’ll be in United Kingdom, Holland, Belgium, Germany, Poland, and the Czec Republic. I totally want to get down to Italy! We’ll see if we can make that happen. The Nerds are a great band, I’d love to get together and do some shows! Both Europe and the USA are very good for their own reasons. We’re constantly playing both. I can’t really say that one is better that the other though. But I would say that I do like playing Europe just a little bit more, just because I don’t live there! And when you’re visiting a new contry, all sorts of stupid things entertain you! You find yourself being amazed at the electrical outlets and what kinds of stones the streets are made of… just because things aren’t made that way in the USA! It’s cool to go to new places!

GD- What exactly is Devil Vision Motion Picture Company?? Do you also do movies along with the record label thing? And what about the recent rumor about your drummer stopping all the credit transactions on your own Devil Vision credit cards and funds??
Allen Wrench: Devil Vision Motion Picture Company Records is actually a movie company as well as a record label. But the work that Devil Vision has been concentrating on has been the musical aspect. We have about 99% of the first film release completed, but the final scenes haven’t been shot yet. I also produced and directed Devil Vision’s first video release. And the was ‘The Drop In’ video for The Voodoo Glow Skulls. It came out great. My producing and directing is excellent. It just seems that I’ve been the most involved with music recently. Devil Vision is a giant money pit! There’s never a profit! All the band members are constantly borrowing money from the company and never paying it back. Dr. Heathen Scum is the biggest offender on that one. I’d go to get some money from the Devil Vision accounts and they’d be empty. Then I’d find out that heathen went and spent $7,000 on guitars and boat accessories. You’ve got to hand it to Junky John though. That fucker’s a total back stabber! I wasn’t paying attention and while I was on a coke binge for a few weeks, he took control of EVERYTHING. When I went back for some more money, I was denied access to all accounts. I guess he got together with our attorney and now he runs the company. Oh well, I guess there’s nothing I can do about it. I’ll figure a way to get back at him though.

GD- What do you think about the actual music biz? Are there bands in the underground music scene you like?
Allen Wrench: I think the music industry is a big load of crap. But the bands support the whole thing, so you really can’t get too pissed off at the situation. Here’s what most people don’t know about the music industry… Record labels are basically money lenders. They sign a band to a record contract, and then they give a band an amount of money. Then the band takes that money and records the album. After the album’s recorded, the band gives the master tapes to the record company… which then ownes the recordings. After that, the band has to pay back the money that was paid to them by the record company. If the band gets lucky enough to pay back the money, then they get a small percentage of what’s left over. So you pay to have the record recorded, you have to pay that money back, and finally, you don’t own the record! How would you like to be involved that? Not me! That’s the thing that’s very cool about Kill Allen Wrench, we don’t have ANYTHING to do with the music industry. I don’t have to ask anyone if it’s ok to record anything, to do anything, or to tour anywhere. We have ACTUAL artistic freedom and creative control. It’s very nice, because I have a lot of friends that are in a lot of famous bands that are constantly getting fucked over by their record companies.

GD- Can you explain me something about Dr. Heathen Scum and the Church of El Duce??
Allen Wrench: The Church of El Duce was formed by Dr. Heathen Scum soon after the death of El Duce. Since you're in Italy, I’ll just say that El Duce was the lead singer of the legendary rock band The Mentors. Dr. Heathen Scum had the realization that El Duce had been god incarnate, who had come down from the heavens to basically get drunk and pan handle from all his creations. Dr. Heathen Scum is also known as ‘The Pope of the Church of El Duce’. That’s why you’ll sometimes hear him referred to as ‘Pope Scum’. Through marijuana induced vision he also recognized me as ‘the Messiah of The Church of El Duce’. Sometimes Pope Scum will consult with me on certain holy matters of the church. Pope Scum should have the Church of El Duce web site up very soon www.churchofelduce.com
