This week’s guest on Flab Magazine’s podcast series was is multi-media
artist/singer/entrepreneur/art director and all around inspiring guy Sonny Kay,
who is perhaps best known for starting indie label, Gold Standard Laboratories.
Before closing it’s doors in 2007 the label was home of some of the most genre
bending punk rock acts of my time including a number of bands that Sonny was a
member of like Angel Hair, the VSS, Year Future, Savalas, Subpoena the Past and
more. Sonny’s time now days is spent working on some of the best photo collage art works gracing LP covers today.

In the hour and forty minute discussion Sonny talks about
his career as a lover and performer of punk rock, a trip down memory lane on life
in Boulder, Colorado circa the 90s, the rise of ‘mainstream punk rock” as compared
to the rawer sound of GSL, his relationship with Omar from the Mars Volta, the transition from music to visual arts and much more.
