TOM GABRIEL FISCHER Quits CELTIC FROST

Damn!!!
I regret missing them last time.
I never saw CF live...
I saw some footage on REBEL ACCESS TV of their Metro performance....
I wouldn't say it was great, but better than what I would have expected.
 
I would have preferred to see them @ Metro w/ VoiVod and Running Wild
(Me thinks that was probably an ACE show!!!)

My older bro saw them at the Aragon (for Into the Pandemoneum) w/ Anthrax (Among the Living tour) and Exodus (Pleasures of the Flesh)
 
I was really surprised when I read this news. I thought their comeback CD was great and was looking to hear more from them.

I never heard the whole album, but have one track on a CM sampler.
I must say, it was very solid.

I think the issue with bands like CF who try to do a comeback to the old days, is that many older fans can't forgive and forget falls from grace, such as COLD LAKE.

Same can be said for VENOM. Anyone recall the CALM BEFORE THE STORM album? I remember buying that on tape when it came out, and being like, "What the fuck??!!!???!!??"
 
BTW. For those not familiar with VENOM'S Calm Before the Storm, allow me to share with you the brilliant lyrics of the album's closer, MUSCLE:

Muscle
Get this - Hey you girl looking at
me
Stop your staring unless you're
free
I need someone who fits just right
I need to get it on - tonight

Wanna hear it - All I wanna do is
open you up wide
Put some great white muscle - In
between your thighs

Hey you child what's your game
All this is physical no need to
know your name
I need someone who fits just right
I need a woman yeah - tonight

Let me hear it - All I wanna do is
open you up wide -
Put some great white muscle - In
between your -

I need a woman who can last the
night
I need to get it on -
C'mon play with a white man yeah

Get this - Hey you girl looking at
me
Stop your staring unless you're
free
I need someone who fits just right
I need to get it on - tonight

Wanna hear it - All I wanna do is
open you up wide
Put some great white muscle - In
between your thighs
