Daath and 3 Inches of Blood brought the heat bludgeoning the crowd with their respective armaments: a six-piece death-metal assault screaming its way out of Atlanta (. (3IB lacked their howling death-metal singer Jamie Hooper but guitarist Justin Hagberg held his own filling in during the five-song set. )Also on the second stage Chthonic and Behemoth repped the black-metal set (or rather sect) while Queens of the Stone Age alum Nick liveri and the Mondo Generator injected a dose of hard-rock humor into the fest and Hatebreed placated old-school vets with an hour-long blitzkrieg. By the time the second stage wrapped and the action shifted to the main one the lines outside the gates were atrocious — evidence that the early bands were just too anonymous on the whole and not able to drive in the masses. But by that point the bands were only half the entertainment: zzfest proved once again that if nothing else it succeeds in coaxing some really slimy specimens out from hiding. Scattered fights with the fuzz tired shouts of “Show me your t–s!” and passed-out sunburned people (.

Heavy metal guitarist plays a new tune
Raleigh Biblical Recorder – Jul 23, 2007
A Bible for Christmas. Spiritual questions from his young daughter. A haunting dream of his own death. But the defining moment came one night when he was sitting in front of his computer simultaneously snorting speed and writing e-mails telling Korn he was quitting the band to get a grip on his life. His voice crescendos when he describes the supernatural experience he felt sitting still in front of the keyboard: It was "an overwhelming sense of the presence of the love of God" he said. "I knew it was God I knew I was changed and I’ve never been the same again. " Waking up the next morning he opened his Bible read a verse in Ezekiel that said "the soul who sins is the one who will die" and immediately flushed all his meth down the toilet… He’s also back in the recording studio once more. " Nothing is certain especially with the music. But asked if he ever regrets the decision to abandon rock-star glory his voice halts with emotion. "I already had that and it wasn’t anything like what I thought it would be" he said. "I wasn’t content. Now I can be content if I never do anything in the limelight again or if I go out and get famous in music again like I was.

A madman babbled from a public-housing highrise and a homeless woman slept outside my door. The gunsmith waved from his red Porsche and the Cider Soldier – an alcoholic in army fatigues – swigged Strongbow at sun-up. At first El Scorchio was my only friend: an ancient heater left by a former tenant a metal box with a 20kg gas bottle inside an untrustworthy device with a grille and a short length of hose. Each cold English night I’d release the valve say a short prayer and light my companion. Flames emitted what I imagined was a warm Mexican glow. In thanks I named him and painted a blue palm tree on one side… Ice coated the roads and made walking treacherous. In my job as Coroners Court reporter for the Nottingham Evening Post I heard it all. Eight hours a day five days a week I covered death. Black lung blood clot infection. Liver failure legionnaire’s disease lung puncture. Car accident chest infection cancer. There were house fires and homeless deaths.
