If he really has left for session work I have to wonder why now? I'm sure Gene could have been doing session work at any time for decades if he'd wanted too. but whatever. The big question for me is who they'll get!
I know we just went through this.. But I really feel like if they are going to replace The Atomic Clock it needs to be another legend.
I think he's been doing session work for ages, but if he did sign a contract with Capitol then I imagine that contract would mean they want him for more hours than touring allows. But he does also have a lot of other projects on the go so again touring might not be easy, especially with his other jobs being so close to home.
All I'm seeing people suggest is names like Lombardo or Bosptah etc. Other than Kerry King's pretend band I don't know what Bosptah is doing but pretty much every drummer I've heard mentioned is already working full time.

Psycho Therapy?...or should I say Cyco Therapy.
Sounds like we could all do with some from time to time

I wonder what Steve "The Horse" Jacobs and Jon Allen are doing these days.

Metal Injection named the usual suspects plus Martin Axenrot ex Opeth and Bloodbath who they reckon can cope with the speed and power. But their out of left field suggestion is Travis Barker from Blink 182.

Could be cool. Let's hope the ep doesn't take 2 and a half years.

I wonder if Bittner will try to jump another ship?
The problem with jumping ship is that it has to be a band I don't care about!! (yes it should be about me
)

According to their FB page they are still going and they are advertising the Left To Die project, but there is no future dates for Gruesome or news about an album.

Gene's always had the long thumb and little finger nail. I'd have reckoned they'd get in the way and break but some how he seems to manage to keep them.

Judging by all his collaborations I'm gonna say, not really.I wonder if Dirk Verbeuren is busy

The tour of the year starts, or restarts again soon.

Yeah but how long will that last? Then another 10 years until the album.
