The thing that really shits me about FOH is that damn cover of Elvis Costello. It's never been a great song but the tune is so fucking catchy and it's one of the worst earworms out there.

Wreck-Defy have a new EP of covers out today, it's only 4 tracks and one of them is available on bandcamp.
But the big news is that they also have a new album coming out in December.
According to the bandcamp site Greg is still in the band, as is Matt from Annihilator.
Hoping album number 4 produces that potential that they've hinted at having since the first album but not quite found.

Did the singer die? Was that Trauma? I can't keep Greg's bands straight.Wreck-Defy have a new EP of covers out today, it's only 4 tracks and one of them is available on bandcamp.

The other problem with Testament opening for Metallica would be that the teeny bopper fans wanting to see their top 40 heroes would have their heads blown off by the support act

Nah that must be Trauma. Wreck-Defy started with Aaron Randall who is ex Annihilator (guitarist is also ex Annihilator) and in 2020 they changed vocalist to Greg Wagner who hasn't been in any bands I remember. I do remember his voice sounding different to Aaron and Aaron's voice being one of the lesser points of the first two albums but I don't really know how good Greg is.

That would really mess with all those screens Metallica have hanging from the roof these days.

I'm really hoping what he says there is correct. I don't really care for the bloodthirsty violent type of lyric like I once did but Exodus and Zetros voice singing about something angry and violent are really suited.

Been blasting the first three Howe albums for a couple days. So fucking good. Gotta hand it to Kurd. Those albums still sound pretty good. Especially The Human Factor and Hanging In The Balance. Blessing In Disguise still has a touch of the 80's tinny drum sound but not nearly as bad as some other bands. Some of the lyrics are hard to listen to after what happened. I don't know that he's talking about himself. But still hard.

I did the same a few weeks back and you're right, as much as it's annoying to hand anything to Today Kurdt those albums have withstood time and they are still good albums. If only he'd go back to those days and tap into whatever it was he was into.

Kurdt was a master songwriter, one of the very best. I do wonder how much Craig Wells contributed to those early albums though.

Greg Wagner has been in a ton of Ohio bands: Shatter Messiah, Wretch, Hate, etc. etc. I have a buddy who used to play with him.

It's very catchy and FAR better than that Rolling Stones cover. Exodus should never have a horn section. Why aren't I paid to produce these albums?

I don't know really know how much any of the members of those albums contributed either. However large or small though it shows. Those albums are great.
