Het Mike Patton & Ipecac Records topic

“To have Scott and Dave with us on this suicide mission is more than an honor,” Patton said “THEY are a big part of the reason we wrote this stuff in the first place, and to realize it 30-plus years later with these maestros is an absolute miracle … we can finally play this teenage nonsense correctly! A total catharsis for us.”

“I mean, are you kidding?? We WORSHIPPED those guys!” said Spruance. “And now they’re gonna PLAY in our band?”

Spruance elaborated on the inspiration to play the demo album on these limited tour dates. He spoke of practicing the album in preparation for the tour in the same city and house he’d written and recorded the album.

“Ever since Trevor hatched The Raging Wrath of the Easter Bunny v.2 idea a few years back, Patton, Lombardo, he and I had each been incubating some idea of that egg,” he said. “Lombardo called me one day and asked me to make some guitar demos so he could learn the songs. He had this generous idea to surprise the other guys with being totally ready to go with the tunes. It just so happened that I was in Eureka at the time. So, I found myself re-visiting all of those riffs in the same goddamned town and in the same goddamned house where I recorded all the original guitars on that demo 33 years earlier. There was something about actually physically working out the mania of those riffs again at DAVE LOMBARDO’S request, in that environment — it just split my head open. It wasn’t long before the train of destiny had picked up too much speed for any of us to jump off.”

The band will be playing their 1986 self-produced, self-released demo album The Raging Wrath of the Easter Bunny on the tour, which will find the band performing at the Fonda Theatre in Hollywood, the Warfield Theatre in San Francisco and Brooklyn Steel in Brooklyn, NY. Tickets go on sale August 16 at 10 AM.

WHEN DID YOU FIRST MEET THE GUYS IN TOOL?
We were all members of the Kansas fan club and met at a Kansas Krazies convention in Topeka in 1978. We were hanging out in the hotel bar at the Holiday Inn and Adam started playing a reggae version of "Carry On Wayward Son" on the piano. Justin and Danny picked up the bar band's instruments and joined in and Maynard grabbed the mic and let it rip dressed in this Kansas state trooper uniform. I was in awe!

I introduced myself and told them about my band Mr. Bungle. They said that they were in a band called Theremin Toolbelt. I told them that they were great but that the band name was a little goofy. To be taken serious they should pick a serious-sounding name like Hammer or Wrench.

NOVEMBER 1

C*nts, the snarling LA-based punk band featuring Michael Crain (Dead Cross/Retox) and Matt Cronk (Qui), release their self-titled debut album on Nov 1st. Check out their first track, ‘A Hero’s Welcome’ and pre-order the self-titled release HERE

Michael Crain explains about the formation of the band, “We were reminiscing about early Cows, Jesus Lizard and Die Kreuzen performances and how organically dangerous and uncontrolled they were. That was our hugest source of inspiration for starting this band, to try and recreate that magic. A few of us have been in bands with each other before, so we already knew we had chemistry but as soon as we all got together to jam for the first time, we knew that this was going to be a fun project.”

Die blijkt dus pas in maart uit te komen, maar die ene track op bandcamp doet me erg aan Cop Shoot Cop denken dus dat is erg prima
