FLOTSAM AND JETSAM To Issue Live CD/DVD - May 11, 2003

FLOTSAM AND JETSAM are presently compiling footage for their first-ever live CD/DVD, tentatively due in late 2003/early 2004. According to drummer Craig Nielsen, the band are working hard to obtain the rights from former record labels to include those songs on the album and are also in the process of booking the shows to record for the CD/DVD. Right now, it looks like the frontrunner location for the shows will be the group's hometown of Phoenix, Arizona. FLOTSAM AND JETSAM's lineup for the performance will include original singer Eric A.K., who left the band in August 2001 after announcing that he was retiring from the music business.


Hmmmm....Megaforce records bestaat blijkbaar weer! GOEDE ZAAK!

'OVERKILL Were All About Money': Former Guitarist GUSTAFSON - May 11, 2003

Ex-OVERKILL guitarist Bobby Gustafson, who is currently living in Florida and playing in a new death/thrash metal group called RESPONSE NEGATIVE, recently gave a lengthy interview to Metal-Rules.com in which he explained his side of the circumstances that led to his departure from OVERKILL and offered an update on his subsequent music-related activities, including his work with SLAYER drummer Dave Lombardo in an early incarnation of GRIP INC., then called simply GRIP.

The following are some of the highlights of that interview:

On his split from OVERKILL:

Bobby Gustafson: "I was not asked to leave the band. It wasn't something where they came out and said, 'Hey, you're fired!' It was more of a verbal fight between me and [bassist] D.D. [Verni] about doing a show where they wanted to do it strictly for money and I didn't want to do it because we had just sold out Studio 54 in New York, our biggest show, and they wanted to do a Halloween show that was kind of goofy. They wanted to charge full price, which at that time was about $15 or $20. I said that it wasn't right and that we should either not do the show or keep it half price because it's not a real OVERKILL show.

"One thing led to another and I hadn't talked to D.D. for two weeks, so I knew that something was up. I later found out that he was doing stuff behind my back with the management, trying to get me out of the band pretty much. They called me in and we had a discussion and it was like, 'They want this, they want that,' and they started putting judgments on my music as far as what we were writing next time and I said, 'Hey, I just wrote four albums worth of stuff that nobody ever said anything!' By that time I had found out what was going on behind my back and that he was trying to get me kicked out, and I got really upset. When [singer] Blitz [Ellsworth] came back from his honeymoon I said, 'Hey, I'm not playing with this guy anymore, so the decision is yours.' Actually, D.D. was kicked out of the band first and he sort of came back. I said, 'Look, I'm not playing with him,' and Blitz said, 'Well, I've been with him longer, and I kind of want to stay with him.' I was like, 'OK, I'm gone.' That was it.

"I think what happened was that when their guitar players [left] over the years, a lot of it had to do with money. I've kept in contact with a few people who know those guys as well and they said that they just didn't pay those guys anything and made it so they couldn't stay around. With me, since I'm the only one that people asked about, they have to make it seem like they threw me out. If that gives them a pair of balls between them to say that, then so be it. I didn't care because I wasn't in the business anymore. I kind of gave up and said, 'The hell with it!.' Now that I'm back, at least my side can be told. You can believe what you want, but I think the more that they've said it, people tend to believe it, but just because a lie is told 100 times doesn't make it true."

On his current relationship with his former bandmates:

Bobby Gustafson: "I haven't spoken to D.D. since I left. I've spoken to Blitz a few times over the years and it was pleasant, but uncomfortable. Just recently, since they've never given me any royalties or anything from any of the albums that have been out, I just found out that the first album recouped like three years ago. Actually, Misty from the new Megaforce Records gave me the heads-up on that. I tried to see what was going on and tracking down money that was owed to me, and our first drummer Rat [Skates], because he had no idea, so I'm basically watching out for him. I think that stirred things up because those guys don't like to give up money at all. So now, even my relationship with Blitz has turned sour.

"When I left the band, I really only kept my royalties and my publishing, and I haven't gotten any of that yet. All of the money basically goes to them and they're not giving it up. I asked Blitz on the phone if he knew that the first album had recouped and he said he didn't know, but I already had heard from Megaforce that it had. He was sending my money to them, and I'm trying to get it back. Now it really turns into a mess because those guys were just all about money and that was what the fight was over 13 years ago."

On his collaboration with SLAYER drummer Dave Lombardo in an early incarnation of GRIP INC.:

Bobby Gustafson: "Yeah, it started out and I was playing locally in New York in late 1991. Billy Milano got in touch with me because he wanted me to join PRO-PAIN, but I didn't want to do it. I kept in touch with him though and he wanted me to do the next M.O.D. album with him, so I said 'OK'. From there we went to San Francisco to play with Perry Strickland from VIO-LENCE, and that didn't work out and Billy left, but I stayed. Somehow I hooked up with Dave's manager by staying there. It really was just gonna be another band, not [another version of my previous band] I4NI, it was going to be GRIP. Dave was down in L.A. and I was in San Francisco. He had his own ideas for guitar parts and stuff, and I just didn't think that it was that great, and it wasn't worth my time to drive seven hours down there to sit around with them and just waste my time because it just wasn't going anywhere. As far as playing goes, he's still a great drummer, but I just couldn't deal with him on a personal level. He was very paranoid about everything that I said. I think it was probably because of the drugs that he was doing at the time, and I was just not into that. He took the name GRIP, which I came up with and changed it into GRIP INC. because he thought I was going to sue him, which at that point I really didn't care. I just left. GRIP had nothing to do with I4NI and I left before that really got started. None of the music that I did with him was even on [GRIP INC.'s] first album . . . Actually it was much better than what we were doing. Really, the first couple of songs were guitar riffs that he came up with. I don't think anything that we did made it on the album. It was better than I expected. To this day though, I don't regret that one bit. I probably wouldn't have lasted to long. Just trying to deal with him and his wife, it wouldn't have worked out."

According to Gustafson, RESPONSE NEGATIVE are in the process of submitting demos to Megaforce Records with a view toward recording their debut album in August. An early 2004 release is expected

Hmmm, een paar nederlandse GIGS zouden ook geen kwaad kunnen!

ik volg flotsam and jetsam eigenlijk niet meer.
hebben ze eigenlijk na de eerste 2 platen nog wat vets uitgebracht??

Niet echt, alhoewel de laatste 3 platen best de moeite waard zijn zeker omdat er in de late jaren 90 niet zoveel vette thrash meer uitkwam.

HIGH is een leuk album, maar die eerste twee steken er wel met kop en schouder bovenuit!

Maar goed een LIve DVD blijft leuk! zoveel komen er niet uit (helaas)

Ik las dat het live opredenvan SODOM in 2001 op Wacken ook uitgebracht ging worden op DVD maar nooit meer wat van gehoord HELAAS! dat was vet zeg de show ook mega vet veel vuurwerk gigantische drumriser met sodom SKULL!

vandaag gekocht
Destruction - bestial invasion of antichrist(bootleck)
Dark angel - time does not heal
en Dead head - dream deceiver
wat heerscht deadhead toch veel

jammergenoeg heb ik hun optreden gemist doordat er niemand ging die ik ken

heb een paar dagen geleden eindelijk Cracked Brain van destruction eens aangeschaft, valt eigenlijk best mee, kikke album klinkt alleen niet echt naar dstruction,meer bay area achtig!

Ik heb een oude Cd van Dead Head wel leuk, maar vandaag de dag zijn ze me te extreem, meer death metal achtig heb ze en keer of 3 live gezien was wel 2 keer aardig, 1 keer goed, maar vind iets als Pestilence of asphyx toch beter!

Leave Scars is kikke, vooral the promise of agony is een wereld nummer!

DARK ANGEL Frontman Sustains Spine Injury, Band Postpone Summer Tour Plans - May 20, 2003

Reunited Los Angeles thrashers DARK ANGEL announced Monday (May 19) that they have been forced to postpone their "Darkness Returns" summer tour plans due to an unfortunate injury to their lead singer, Ron Rinehart. Rinehart reportedly sustained critical damage to the cervical region of his spine and several herniated disks in his neck recently, resulting in severe pain, numbness, and mild paralysis (loss of control over voluntary movement and muscles of the body). Among his more serious symptoms are loss of sensation and reflex function, which, if left untreated, may lead to loss of autonomic nervous activity such as breathing and swallowing. The singer is currently undergoing treatment including aggressive Trigger Point Injections (TPI) to alleviate myofascial pain syndrome (chronic pain involving tissue that surrounds muscle) and Epidural Steroid Injections (ESI) to reduce inflammation by inhibiting the production of substances that cause the inflammation.

Asked about Mr. Rinehart's progress, his neurosurgeon stated, "His progress is improving and all measures are being taken to ensure that further injury to the spine does not occur due to the amount of soft tissue damage. Regression in cases like these is common, thus further extensive treatment and therapy will be required for the next several months."

In an official statement, the rest of DARK ANGEL said that they are "saddened by this unfortunate accident and wish Ron and his family all our love, support and encouragement. We are confident Ron will return strong as ever as the only person to front the stage for the mighty DARK ANGEL."

They further regret the unfortunate position this has put the band in regarding their scheduled appearances. "We want to apologize to all our fans for the tour cancellations and we want to let them all know that this will not stop the L.A. Caffeine Machine from returning to redefine metal one more time."

DARK ANGEL began in Los Angeles in 1981 and by 1985 was headlining venues across America, as well as supporting major acts like SLAYER and MEGADETH. By the end of 1992 the band had 14 releases (including four "proper" studio albums, a live album, as well as various compilation and video appearances) and were touring worldwide. During the band's 11-year absence, devoted metal fans around the world have elevated DARK ANGEL to nearly mythical proportions. As a direct result of this undying enthusiasm, the group recently decided to reunite and stand poised to begin a musical assault that will truly level the senses

AAARRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH

Ja waarschijnlijk houdt dat ook in geen DA op Wacken en dat was juist een van de bands waar ik voor ging!

Natuurlijk komen ze niet als ze de hele zomer tour afzeggen

Godver, dit zuigt

Gene Hoghlan zit wel in dark Angel!!!!

Die is gewoon betrokken bij de reunie hoor, Jim Durkin is weg maar die kan gemist worden, die had nooit zin in touren!

Ik vond Brett toch een betere gitarist destijds!

Nee het is gewoon de leave scars line up met een andere gitarist!

ja? ik dacht ergens gelezen te hebben dat gene hoglan er niet bij was. dat maakt de zaak idd minder erg. maar verdere ben ik het helaas niet met je eens. Jim durkin is DE dark angel muzikant. Ook Gene hoglan erkent dit, lees zijn interview maar eens na in de rock tribune (of hoe dat blad ook mag heten).
en brett zal vast een betere gitarist zijn (ik heb ze toen ook live gezien met hem en dat was idd super) maar Iron maiden met les claypool is voor mij geen iron maiden. maar goed, ik kan ook niet beloven als dit pseudo-dark angel in o-13 optreedt dat ik er ook niet ben.

Gene Hoghlan heeft vanaf darkness descends alle riffs geschreven en niet Jim Durkin, vind ron rinehart ook een veel vettere zanger dan die Don Doty of hoe heette ie ook alweer (don was geloof ik gitarist!)

Nuclear Assault had ook niet meer Anthony Bramante op gitaar maar zijn vervanger was prima!

Durkin is er destijds niet voor niets uitgevlogen, maar het was natuurlijk mooi geweest als ie erbij was geweest!

Maar ik beschouw hem niet als een key figure ofzo, niet te vergelijken met Angus bij AC/DC of steve Harris bij Maiden!

Ik bedoel ze hebben zonder hem ook vette platen gemaakt (omdat Gene volgens mij de hoofdsonwriter was, heb dat toch vaak in interviews gelezen nog niet zo lang geleden in de aardschok in het strapping yound lad interview met hem!!)!
