Meegs Rascon Talks About Forming Coal Chamber With Dez Fafara

[@jourdanramos]

Just saw Coal Chamber with Mudvayne and they were so on point!

[@zachmacrockproductionsinc.9902]

got the first cd. -here in Norway

[@EXSENTRIX]

It makes total sense that Coal Chamber was so influenced by White Zombie. I didn't realize it back then. But after Meegs said something now I can definitely see and hear it. They're definitely their own version of White Zombie and they were damn good at it! They've always been one of my most favorite bands. I only got to see them once at Ozzfest 98 was at the Akron Rubber Bowl in Ohio. Is one of my favorite moments in life! I'll never forget it. I was 14yrs old then. Still Jamming Coal Chamber now 🤘🏼

[@GarzaPodcastClips]

I didn't know White Zombie was an influence until he mentioned it. Same. Still jamming Coal Chamber. -Garza

[@LeadMe2TheBliss]

Wow, you're so lucky! I wanted to go to that Ozzfest really bad! I have a close family member who went to that show! I have seen Coal Chamber live twice and yeah they are an incredible live band! I did however go to Ozzfest 1999 and that was so amazing! I went to Ozzzfest 99,2000, and 2001!

[@lukelyall5879]

They also probably had rayna became bassist cause Sean yseult was white zombies bassist

[@larz015]

White Zombie was one of my fav bands ever back in 93 -97. And then WZ broke up. And in that same year Coal Chamber came out. And Holy Shit I was hooked from the first time I heard Loco. It's 2023 now and I'm 47 yrs old. Guess what? Coal Chamber & White Zombie are still on the top of my fav band list.

[@mfntonberry]

My grandpa bought me chamber music from Sam goodys when I was a teenager.. He was not impressed. 🤣😂

[@ewoknips5154]

Haha same here except it was my grandma 😂

[@xiiiunmetal]

I hung out with Meegs and Mikey at TX Independence Fest 2014. My band opened the festival for them in their new band at the time, We Are the Riot. I couldn't believe they were here at a mostly black metal type of fest (Behemoth was headlining) I got to hang out and chat with them for about an hour. Really fun time! The bros are funny as hell 🤘

[@jnero79]

I traded this dude a bowl pack of weed for a beer on the first Ozzfest.. really nice guy

[@saintric7282]

Back in the 80s 90s it's all about art

[@MercurialAscent]

Older Meegs is John Liguizamo with long hair lol.

[@R49_Complete]

I was about to ask if Meegs was Chinese but then I heard him talk for a little while. K he's Mexican lol.

[@GarnetBethel]

He's bi-racial. His mother is Chinese, his father is Mexican.

[@LAFC.]

Racially he is Asian/Chinese but nationality wise he is Mexican.

[@lukelyall5879]

Wasn’t chi Cheng (rest in peace) also Chinese and Mexican?

[@natekettlewell5169]

Is that a 7 string fender strat? WTF?!?

[@LeadMe2TheBliss]

Yes, Fender have been making 7 Strings since the 1990s. Look up the guitar Squier Stagemaster 7 those are really cool 7 string guitars, I've always wanted one.

[@donniedarko444]

Had a purple Squier Stagemaster that I played back in 2002-2006. Had Jack Skellington painted on the body. Switched out for a Peavey Predator. Ended up giving the Squier to a kid at a show one day, after we finished on stage. It was Floyd equipped, and not the best sounding or easiest to stay in tune.

[@hisvorpalsword]

back then... back now

[@soundhealer6043]

I'm glad he clarified that Mikey was LITERALLY 17 years old. I might have assumed he meant he was FIGURATIVELY 17 years old.

[@mushroomleg]

Oh hi meegs ! How’s u sex life???

[@d.johnson3164]

Cocaine is a hell of a drug

[@Prozacslushy97]

And meth

[@Prozacslushy97]

@Ohmz just facts, drugs and alcohol abuse attributed to Coal Chambers demise

[@d.johnson3164]

True shit. I personally think dez is a prima donna anyway. Meegs and bug are both great musicians honestly and coal chamber even though they arent on slipknot or korns level they still are godfathers/pioneers in heavy music mad respect

[@dennisfinley6928]

Lol Rick James quote

[@CrashHeadroom]

@@d.johnson3164 KoRN are teenage angst turned to 11, couple of good tracks but ultimate crap ((same s*** over and over I GOTABUSED WHEN I WAS YOUNGER WAAAAH yeah alot of us did man but we can't make money off it -_-)) and slipknot was a corporate c*** suckers wet dream, a crap band who didnt write their own music, refered to each other by numbers, Corey was an arrogant f*** who deserves the crap he gets for treating the "lesser" bands members ((his own words)) like crap. Using those 2 piles of trash as an example was not a good idea my man, coal chamber were better than both of them, I can listen to a whole chamber album and like most of the tracks...ill only like 1, MAYBE 2 on a KoRN album and if you've heard 1 slipknot track youve heard em all ((and the only reason they exist is because the record company couldnt sign mushroom head XD lool)).
