133.0. "Cronos" by IOSG::PERKINS (There's that f*cking bazooka again!) Fri Dec 15 1989 09:45

	Venom bassist/vocalist, Cronos, has finished work on his 
	debut album...although the band (Cronos) have not yet signed 
	a record contract.  The record should be released early next
	year; it was produced by themselves.

	Band members: Cronos; Mike H, guitar; Jim C, Guitar; Chris P, 
		      drums.

	The band are suffering a set back at the moment because US
	neo-classical act The Kronos Quartet have threatened them with
	legal action, claiming that their name is too similar.

    	Gee.....I can't understand why they'd be upset with a similar
    name...both are great entertainment....both are musically
    inclined..hmmm I cant figure out what the porblem would be...

    Cronos guitarist, Mike Heatley, was a Berklee college friend of mine.
    Haven't seen him all too often -- last I heard, he was back in the
    states living in Athol, MA!  8^P  The other members of Cronos were
    still in the UK, and they were writing tunes viz MAIL!!
    
    If you wanna run into Mike H, go to Al Pitrelli gatherings in the
    Boston area (Al, another Berklee guitarist, was once in a band with
    Mike ... it went nowhere).

    So, who do I run into at last weeks Dream Theater show?  Mike Heatley!
    
    So, one of my first questions to him -- what's up with Cronos?  He
    left the band last year, but says they continue to record with a 
    new (apparently killer) guitarist, still writing some really killer
    (VERY heavy) music!!
    
    Mike is still living in Athol, MA, and is trying to form a new band.
    Style is in the same ultra-heavy vein as Cronos, fwiw.  He's supposed
    to be sending me a tape.
