We've mentioned legendary doom metal band Electric Wizard at least once before. With a new album due this fall, The Typing Monkey figured it was time to (re-)acquaint readers with a terrific interview with Electric Wizard's guitarist -- no, the other one.

Read it all here and get hip to the massive, too-much-to-smoke power of Electric Wizard.
