Summary
Hi everyone! One of wrestling's most memorable themes is Kane's entrance theme from his debut at Survivor Series 1997. The rendition of his theme Slow Chemical written by Finger Eleven is just as memorable, if not more so, to so many. Finger Eleven guitarist Rick Jackett, fresh off of the release of their new album Last Night On Earth, discuss the process of writing and releasing Last Night On Earth and how Finger Eleven is thriving as a fully independent band without a label. We also discuss how Finger Eleven came to write Kane's entrance theme Slow Chemical, when it was actually supposed to release, and how Jim Johnston and WWE worked with them to create one of the most memorable (and oddly lyrically different than the character of Kane) themes of all time. We also play our favorite game on the show, Music City Rumble, where Rick Jackett names the musicians he'd book in a wrestling match: one men's match, one women's match, and one tag team match!
