Black Star Riders' Warwick and Johnson Answer Burning Questions

. (Classic Rock) Black Star Riders duo Ricky Warwick and Damon Johnson have spoken of their Thin Lizzy legacy and their love of Motorhead mainman Lemmy. The Lizzy offshoot men share their thoughts in a Q&A session ahead of the release of their second album The Killer Instinct, out on February 23 via Nuclear Blast.

Guitarist Johnson says: "I think that the Lizzy faithful have been incredibly supportive of this band doing two things. Creating brand new music, and continuing to celebrate and honour the spirit that was Phil Lynott, that was Thin Lizzy - and that is Thin Lizzy because Lizzy lives on in all of the fans, and in Scott Gorham for sure."

Asked about last year's split with bassist Marco Mendoza - who was replaced by Robbie Crane - the pair say they remain good friends with Mendoza. "Marco is our boy, he's our brother," Johnson reports. Read more and stream the full Q&A here.
