Refreshingly though, this is no cover band. Sacred Leather delivers original and powerful Metal anthems that would surely put a smile on Rob Halford&#8217;s face.<\/p>\n<p>Frontman Wrathchild (AKA Dustin Boltjes of Skeletonwitch and Iron Diamond) sat down with Hardrock Haven for an on-the-spot interview following Sacred Leather&#8217;s performance. Our quick chat covered the Sacred Leather&#8217;s recently released 2-song &#8220;cassingle&#8221;, the hilarious vintage-looking &#8220;Prowling Sinner&#8221; music video, and the band&#8217;s impending full-length debut record. Wrathchild also discussed the major differences in fronting a band vs. drumming in one and how the mighty Sacred Leather came into being.<\/p>\n<p><center><br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1LepQvFX7uA\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n<p>For more information, please check out: <a href=\"https:\/\/sacredleather.bandcamp.com\/releases\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/sacredleather.bandcamp.com\/releases<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Videographer: Justin DelPrince<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\">by Steve Patrick &#8211; Sr. Columnist &#8212; Indianapolis retro metallers Sacred Leather recently treated Columbus, OH to the first date of their &#8220;Sado-Massacre Tour.&#8221; The aptly titled band is one big visual and audio reference <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/2017\/video-interview-with-wrathchild-of-sacred-leather\/\" title=\"Wrathchild of Sacred Leather\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":54622,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15125],"tags":[13306,203,13307,13305,8858,2250,13304],"class_list":{"0":"post-54620","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-arcint2017","8":"tag-dustin-boltjes","9":"tag-interview","10":"tag-iron-diamond","11":"tag-sacred-leather","12":"tag-skeletonwitch","13":"tag-video","14":"tag-wrathchild"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54620","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=54620"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54620\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/54622"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=54620"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=54620"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hardrockhaven.net\/online\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=54620"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
