Bullets and Octane has always been such a COOL band and I'm thrilled that they have new music out and are still making lots of noise THEIR way.  I caught up with their frontman (and punk king) Gene Louis for a deep dive, music business conversation about lasting through trends, ups and downs, 20 years of their RCA major label debut- "In The Mouth Of The Young" and crafting an anthem for TODAY- "Losing My Mind" .  Thanks to Gene for the in depth convo.
