Leah Massey (Pest Control)
This week on HardLore features special guest Leah Massey, vocalist of the United Kingdom's absolute best and brightest new band: PEST CONTROL.
The crossover band inspired by classics such as Anthrax and Suicidal Tendencies also draws from some of HardLore's cult favorites like the Crumbsuckers, and Leah walks us through her journey from young emo kid, to discovering hardcore in Leeds' vibrant hardcore scene, to taking the natural next step to singing for multiple bands.
...Now she's on the cover of Kerrang, they've played Outbreak Fest multiple times, and Metal Hammer called Pest Control "The UK's most exciting new band."
We're proud to welcome Leah to the show to tell her story in this fantastic conversation.

12 Hits From Hell: Inside The Lost MISFITS Album
A HardLore Investigative Special… In this incredibly special deep dive, we sit down with an important name in Misfits history: Tom Bejgrowicz, formerly of Caroline Records.
When the band sued Danzig for nearly 20 years of back payment for performance royalties, Caroline Records stepped into the foot the bill… in exchange for owning the entire Misfits discography.
Enter then lower level Caroline employee Tom Bejgrowicz, who’s intimate knowledge and passion for The Misfits landed him the nearly impossible task of creating the formal releases for the Misfits’ intended debut LP “Static Age”, their legendary discography Coffin Boxset, and eventually their even more legendary lost 2nd LP, “12 Hits From Hell”… Which was cancelled right before its official release.
We were lucky enough to have Tom personally tell us the incredible story of why the band came together to stop “12 Hits” from officially releasing.. Enjoy.
