DEATH PILOT'S FIRST OFFICIAL VIDEO, DIRECTED BY KONSTANTINE X (DOMMIN): Death Pilot- Until The End (Official)
- I'm also behind the drum kit on the new LP, "Mirror Of Retribution" from Taiwanese melodic death/black metal powerhouse, CHTHONIC !!!
- As of Nov.12, 2008 the drums have been completed on BETWEEN EARTH AND SKY's upcoming disc by which will features the vocal talents of the amazing Greg Bennick (ex- TRIAL ), and the guitar talents of Vancouver's own dynamic duo: Happy Kreter (ex- BY A THREAD ) & Sean Lande (ex-STRAIN/ex- BY A THREAD ). So far it's turning out better than any of us had possibly imagined. Pics and Video from the studio are posted in My Videos and My Pics.
-OUT NOW is "SEASONS", the new CD/LP I played drums on with Seattle straightedge Hardcore stalwarts, WAIT IN VAIN , featuring the songwriting assault of Timm McIntosh of Trial recognition. This release kicks your fucking face in, bringing in an all-too-rare freshness to an otherwise stagnant and predictable genre.
- Over 2 hours of footage from the recent TRIAL reunion shows in Seattle, London and Budapest with my favorite Seattle hardcore veterans has just been released via Panic! Records. Check out the trailer and sme samples in My Videos
- THE GREAT WHITE VOID, a side project featuring the incredible guitar/songwriting team of Robin Staps( The Ocean ) & Matthias Dubrowski( Mönster ). Check both their killer German bands out in my friends list - they rule, and our project together is like nothing you'd expect! A sample song appears above and on www.ursession.com/lexdiamondz .
