'em -

That's quite an interesting pair! I'm glad to see that Glenn Drover is getting back into action right away. On another note, does anybody know what's going on with Eidolon these days? Their website has been down ever since Glenn left Megadeth (coincidence? I think not). At any rate, this collaboration should turn out to be an absolute shred fest.


Stay metal. Never rust.

It also helps that he's a really nice guy in person.

The only official Eidolon site right now is the official myspace page which I run for Glen (along with his personal myspace). The band is on hiatus. With Nils in Pagan's Mind, and Shawn in Megadeth theres not much going on unless Glen wanted to just rebuild the band from scratch.

Hes been keeping busy with several things. Keep checking back at the links below, as thats where all the official news goes 1st as I work directly with him.

Have you heard 7th Reign? Its basically the Eidolon bassist, and the ex Eidolon singer Brian Soulards band. They kick ass. I'll post a link to them as well.

Thanks a lot, DrumRMan!

I'm glad to hear that Brian Soulard is still singing. 7th Reign's music is a perfect match for his voice! I always liked his work with Eidolon, but I was always concerned that he wasn't powerful enough for the vicious Drover attack. Listening to these samples gives me the impression that he was actually under-used for all of those years.

Thanks for the Eidolon update, and thanks even more for turning me onto a great band with 7th Reign!
