Viet Cong have rocketed out of to nowhere (truth be told: Calgary) to become one of 2015’s most talked about bands. The band’s self-titled debut has been quickly gathering rave reviews and intensely dedicated fans. A few months ago, I got a sneak preview of the record, huddling in the tour van with Matt Flegel  and “Monty” Munro. We talked about everything from making a new tour van “your own” to the night Matt’s previous band Women exploded onstage in a fistfight. Listen to our chat!
