Blake Ibanez on his new supergroup FUGITIVE and new POWER TRIP material

Knotfest’s Daniel Dekay talks with Blake Ibanez of crossover supegroup Fugitive, and Power Trip, at this year’s Psycho Las Vegas after Fugitive’s second ever show about the writing and recording of their new Maniac EP and its looser more ‘rock ’n’ roll’ vibe, his plans for the band, new Power Trip material, getting to play with his heroes, and his obsession with cassettes.

Blakes skills are amazing, I am calling it now, this guy is gonna go places later down the line. One of the most underrated guitarists ever.

[@Landlord0fTheFilthy]

10000% !!

[@JTCS-re7ge]

[@jakeblasdel3454]

Some of the best crossover I’ve ever heard… can’t wait to hear more

[@sometimeswefight]

Fugitive kicks so many asses live. They played 2 new tracks at the Maniac release party, so fucken rad. Supreme gentlemen, it was so awesome to meet them.

[@dr.papersalt4753]

[@soifcrossoverthrash]

Nice 🍻

[@svobodasimon1185]

Power Trip!

[@dinothrash1093]

Pretty sure he was gunna tour with exodus bc they play in d standard! I could be wrong tho just a guess

[@megaduck7965]

I wonder if Brandon Ellis ended up playing the tour Blake went up for ? I’m pretty sure they play in D standard

[@Defleshuary]

Exodus? D and standard I think most of their stuff is.

[@megaduck7965]

@@Defleshuary boom ! Correct answer

[@colt.thrower]

If anything, could have been Obituary. They've already connected in the past.

[@hisbloodband]

Uhhh Ibanez sponsor

[@svobodasimon1185]

Bad thing is the ep is an ep only but bloody expensive

[@seanemmett2845]

Dude get a mic setup! But thanks!

[@battsy95]

bro it's thrash jesus

[@jasonkav]

Power Trip still can have a future…find another front man. Riley would’ve wanted it that way. I could see you guys touring with Metallica on the big ticket. You guys are the last thrash band left.

[@UndMetal]

Are you F'n kidding? FUCKKKK Larsallica, they should tour with actual metal bands.

[@CalebHimself]

Riley was one of a kind but I agree. I would still listen if they found a new singer, the riffs and songs are just too good.

[@DrownEmOut]

Enforced is bringing heat to the Thrash scene

[@hitsy_]

@@DrownEmOutfuck yeah love enforced
