Band: Nothingface |
Introduction: After rising to the top of the underground scene with their well received independent albums, "Pacifier" and "An Audio Guide To Everyday Atrocity", the band finally made the leap to the big leagues this past year and released their TVT Records debut entitled "Violence" during the fall. However, the release of the album also saw the group forced to replace long time drummer Chris Houck with newcomer Tommy Sickles due to health reasons. Despite the changes this brought about, the group didn't let it get them down as they soldiered on with a successful stint on the Tattoo The Earth Tour and had gigs with AMEN, Mudvayne, Endo and Machine Head among others notched firmly under their belt throughout the latter half of 2000. As the year drew to a close everything seemed to be going according to plan until the shocking announcement that founding bassist/programmer Bill Gaal had decided to part ways with the group to pursue a career in music production. Yet while longtime fans reeled from the news, the group quickly filled the position with Jerry Montano formerly of the group, The Deadlights and laid out plans to release their first single "Bleeder" to radio in early 2001. Spending the start of 2001 in rehearsals with their new found bassist, they are now set to embark on mid-January tour with Systematic, as they head fearlessly into the new millennium as the group many have pegged as the future of heavy music and with the track record they've already established, it looks like we're in for a long and violent ride. - wookubus Albums
