| _________________________________ [Apr 2,2004 8:26am - Kalopsia ""] yea bloodbath isn't gonna be the same with peter on vocals. hopefully it'll turn out good |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 2,2004 12:35pm - RustedAngel ""] peter still rules. |
| __________________________________________ [Apr 2,2004 12:41pm - TheGreatSpaldino ""] who cares... i thought Bloodbath was just a studio only project? i dont really get why anyone should give a shit about that band anyway. they started off as a joke between 5 drunk guys that decided to write and record an album in one night. |
| __________________________________ [Apr 2,2004 1:57pm - dreadkill ""] i heard about mikael leaving the band at jersey metalfest. the guy from century media told me dan swano was going to move from drums to guitar and vocals. that would have made so much sense, since he has a similar voice to mikael, but peter tagtgren rules. mikael is my favorite vocalist in the world, but peter tagtgren is such a great replacement. this band will still be awesome. don't worry. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 2,2004 3:29pm - MyDeadDoll ""] "REVOLTING COCKS Al Jourgensen (Ministry) is in the studio with a revamped lineup rounded out by Mike Scaccia (Rigor Mortis, Ministry), John Monte (M.O.D., Mind Funk), Phil Owen (Skatenigs) and Mark Baker (Hellions)" new RevCo? wonder what this is gonna be like. |
| _______________________________ [Apr 2,2004 4:09pm - morkul ""] Reno Killerich on drums for Dimmu Borgir? Interesting. I love Panzerchrist but I don't think his style is going to fit. Well he won last years fastest feet award at the WFD. We will have to wait and see. |

| _________________________________________ [Apr 2,2004 5:30pm - TheGreatSpaldino ""] i think they are good... but they dont rule. but yeah... im glad Dimmu got the Exmortem drummer... that guy is wicked fast. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 2,2004 8:51pm - BornSoVile ""] So with Tyrm playing drums does that mean Satyricon is back on the Morbid Angel/Suffocation tour??? |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 2,2004 9:26pm - MyDeadDoll ""] yeah, i think that was already established. =) |
