On the Couch: Bad Habit
On July 6th, 1984, the world was introduced to one bad habit in which it was wise to partake. Even today, all are encouraged to take up this bad habit. What might it be? Ahh—a heavy sound, creeping from the stages of Holland, eventually reaching other parts of the world. A Dutch four-piece band turned five-piece, headlining shows, as well as opening for the likes of Saxon, Deep Purple, Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow, Annihilator, Glenn Hughes, Norway’s Motorpsycho and even those muscular New Yorkers, Manowar. And what did this group from the Netherlands name themselves? BAD HABIT, of course! Now PIG Records and ON THE COUCH bring you Bad Habit’s first interview since their final performance on April 5th, 1997. Marco van Empel of Headbangers Records, substituting for regular host David Ulysses Portnow, sits down with the boys from Bad Habit in this episode of On the Couch, from the Netherlands!
