where the heck is "metalkingdom"?

The closest hint he gave was that he'd assisted for Paul Northfield on a Suicidal Tendencies album....from what I could work out it was probably the "Suicidal for Life" album. He'd also mentioned something about working at Ocean Way (where the SFL album was done) as well...he could be FOS but I doubt it. He also mentioned that he'd left LA so may be out of the industry all together.
 
Well.... IM back now, and a year older... I was in Vegas for two weeks.

BTW... you guys are dicks.

caustic enough?

"I worked with ST (and PN) back in the late 90's. I still have the SUICIDAL shirt that they gave me, which Mike and Dean made themselves in their garage."

"I once asked my old boss Skip Saylor why he didn't have a 862 and he said, "I do, right here" then he pointed to a Distressor and a Pultec."



"I have never done one single session in 10 years without being on the chronic. I'll agree with Andy that it is unprofessional to do in front of your paying clients, unless they're the ones passing it to you. Even then, it's best to turn it down. Skip Saylor used to tell me "Go for a quick walk. You don't want your clients to see you doing that". Then again, my main client ended up being the world's most famous rapper - who was on the cover of High Times two years in a row as 'Stoner of the Year'. "

"Before I went independent, I had the good fortune of working with some really great producers and engineers. Some of the rock artists that I worked with during those times would include Sepultura, Scorpions, Santana, Suicidal Tendencies..."
