After driving 2 hours through Hurricane Ernesto, I managed to catch up with Thomas from my hometown's favorite sons, Strike Anywhere, on the opening date our their monster tour with Ignite, A Global Threat, Modern Life Is War and New Hampshire State Motto.

In part 1 of a 2 part interview, Thomas and I discuss his band's new album, Dead FM, fan expectations, and a little bit of his own personal family history. Stay tuned for the end, as we've also included a live performance of one of the tracks from the new album.
