Classic Rock… Hard Rock… Bob Rock… The Damn Truth!

Interview by Alain Brunet

Additional Information

The singles “Love Outta Luck,” “The Willow” and “Better This Way” preceded the release of The Damn Truth’s homonymous album on the Spectra Musique label. Produced by legendary producer Bob Rock (Mötley Crue, The Offspring, Bon Jovi, Metallica), this fourth opus sees the Montreal band back on the rock road. On the eve of kick-off at MTelus this Wednesday, March 26, drummer Dave Traina talks to Alain Brunet to explain more about the band’s recent motivations, its allegiance to classic and hard rock, and of course the guidance of mentor Bob Rock, who also worked on The Damn Truth’s previous album, Now or Nowhere.
