Social Distortion Interview: Mike Ness & Dennis Danell Talk With MTV VJ Karyn Bryant (1992)

TBT: In this interview from MTV’s “Buzzcut,” VJ Karyn Bryant interviews Social Distortion frontman Mike Ness and guitarist Dennis Danell while shooting pool in New York City. The guys discuss their musical roots, how their sound had evolved up until this point and how their fans have reacted. Sadly, Dennis- who founded the band with Mike- passed away in 2000 at the age of 38 after suffering what is believed to be a brain aneurysm.

How coincidental that im watching this 31 years to the day it aired

[@thomasminarchickjr.7355]

Every time I see her talk mma I always think of her from MTV during my high school years. She’s always been cool

[@chunks96ss]

That's awesome, one of my favorite bands growing up

[@ironimpactdojo]

Karyn, you were the coolest person MTV had during these years, and without a doubt, once you were gone, this channel quickly spiraled into the chaotic mess it is today. Great interview, great band, great interviewer!

[@dgenerated]

I miss Dennis, glad I got to see them before he passed and with Chuck Biscuits on drums no less

[@dgenerated]

@No One Chuck was a great drummer with an impressive resume!.. I wish he was still drumming and in Social D, Danzig or Any band for that matter!.

[@brandonhendrix7223]

Ya know, I always remembered Karyn Bryant because I thought she was foxy as hell and mainly watched MTV to see her. So I was wondering if it was just me. Apparently not. Seemed everybody dug her! Oh and Social Distortion are great.

[@TTTHC]

Yay to early 90s and early 20s! Great times back then.

[@shephrd]

Great stuff. One of these days, you must detail how you transitioned from being an MTV VJ to being an MMA journalist.

[@subscriber10304]

Wow old school stuff Upload a "Malcolm & Eddie" clip next, Karyn !

[@knicks9899]

[@frankierb]

Any interest in doing a podcast Karyn/movie project?

[@bryanfrombuffalo7685]

Karyn does ufc now

[@edwardjones2202]

Karen I have three points to make. 1) I love the way you hang out in masculine "worlds" but actually know your shit, ask incisive and interesting questions and don't simper and flirt like those inter-changeable pretty faces you see all over the place. 2) Jesus Christ 1992 Karen is so hot. 3) 2015 Karen is also hot. Please marry me and make little mixed race husky voiced babies. 4) Have a great day!

[@jasondownsnet]

Yes to all four. She really seems to know her stuff when it comes to mma, and seems super cool and not offended easily in male dominated industries. She has to be a super cool and smart person. And she's super fine to go along with it.

[@hbeezey]

is this real life

[@fenixx48]

SOCIAL D!!!!!!

[@GregoryCunningham]

Takes balls to post this.

[@C0nand0]

1992 Karyn is hotter than everyone

[@VredesStall]

Mike Ness looks like Andrew "Dice" Clay's and Dave Gahan's younger kid brother.

[@rennyzero420]
