ROB ZOMBIE And GODSMACK Roar Onto Road Tonight
- Aug. 25, 2006
|
|
|
Launch Radio Networks reports: ROB ZOMBIE and GODSMACK kick off their co-headlining tour tonight (Friday, August 25) in Dallas, Texas, with the tour slated to run through October 1 in Concord, California. While Zombie kept his stage show to a minimum on his last two U.S. treks, the singer told Launch that he's pulling out all the stops on this one. "The GODSMACK tour is me getting back to doing completely insane, retarded production. It'll be sick. Huge. Gigantic. I wanna do the biggest thing I've ever done, basically."
The 25-stop tour will be GODSMACK's first Stateside jaunt in support of the band's fourth album, "IV", which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Top 200 after its April release.
Zombie has already toured the States twice in support of his latest effort, "Educated Horses". The album's newest single is "Let It All Bleed Out".
Zombie's new version of the classic 1978 horror film "Halloween" has been given a release date of October 19, 2007. Zombie will write and direct the film, with production possibly slated to begin later this year.
The rocker and filmmaker's upcoming adult animated film, "The Haunted World of El Superbeasto", will also be in theaters in 2007.

If anyone gets to meet them ask them 2 questions in this order 1. How did you get the name "Godsmack"?
2. I heard you used to be an Alice in Chains cover band, is that true?
Those 2 questions put toghether will make anyone in this crappy band squirm.

Zombie is cool as fuck. Fuck the haters. Great live show!
Godsmack... they were good until they started recycling the same 3 songs over and over. I saw them open for Metallica and they were really quiet. Their drummer (Larkin) is a fucking monster though! He carried the entire concert.
I wouldn't pay to see them again.

Excellant point: no AIC; no Godsmack. Those fuckers even had to use an AIC's song as the name of their band: SHAMEFUL.
Question: what does Jerry think of Godsmack?

They actually used to be an AIC cover band. No kidding. I actually saw them perform in the Boston area in the mid 90's. Sully was the drummer. And he was an incredible douche then. And I have heard he has only gotten worse.

Godsmack was originally an AIC cover band.
Sully was originally the drummer.
And you haven't proven me wrong.

This US heavy rock band revolves around the diminutive figure of Sully Erna, a self-confessed witch from Boston, Massachusetts, USA. Erna had played drums with local Boston band Strip Mind, before taking a yearlong break from music. He formed Godsmack (named after an Alice In Chains song) in 1995 with Robbie Merrill (bass), Tommy Stewart (drums) and Lee Richards (guitar). The latter pair only lasted a few months, and were replaced by Tony Rombolo (guitar) and Joe Darko (drums). The new line-up, with Erna playing drums, recorded a self-titled album in 1996 on a budget of $2500 and sold it through local retail chain Newbury Comics. Local radio station WAAF picked up the track "Keep Away" for heavy rotation, and the band also came to the attention of ex- Extreme drummer Paul Geary who signed them to his management company PGE. The album's stand-out track, "Whatever", became a big local hit, and, with their fortunes rising, original drummer Stewart rejoined the band in mid-1997.

Doing shots with Jonathan Davis? Lemme guess, Cum Shots. You are so cool, you know Jonathan Davis and Sully. Man it must have been tough to come down from that pinnacle.
Godsmack are a bunch of fucking frauds. It even says so in the encyclopedia.

Man am I glad that I saw him a month ago with ANTHRAX instead of Godsmack...
I feel sorry for the people that get this line up, and missed out on the last leg of Zombies tour.

the ONLY decent thing Zombie has ever done was The Devil's Rejects. other'n that. Shoot the creep. His music is homofied white rap stewed with a dollop of pure Wyoming pit-hog vagina tablets, and a pinch of Russian butt loaf.

His music is alot better than his "Films".
Devils Rejects was a terrible movie, and I wish I could get those 2 houers of my life back. House of 1000 corpses was atleast Watchable, but still pretty bad...

Well let us know if you ever get those "2 houers" back. Then you can waste them again listening to Zombie's music.
