Buried for more than three decades, a long-lost 1991 Z-ROCK radio interview featuring MARTY FRIEDMAN and the late NICK MENZA has resurfaced giving fans a rare, unfiltered glimpse into MEGADETH just days before the legendary Clash Of The Titans North American tour. Now fully restored and re-mixed, the 20-minute interview is available to stream in full below. Recorded on May 14, 1991, just two days before the Clash Of The Titans tour kicked off on May 16, 1991. Broadcast nationwide from Dallas, Texas on the Z-ROCK Network (1986-1996), Headbangers Heaven (created and copyrighted by HardRadio's founder before he was Program Director of Z-Rock) was the unapologetic voice of heavy metal radio at its peak. Hosted by "Crazy" Mike Paine, the show became a cult favorite for its unfiltered interviews, blistering playlists, and deep dives into the global metal underground.
