                actually, they  are  from  NH as well, Pete.  The
                bassist used to  play  for a band called Prophet.
                His girlfriend was the  drummer for them, and boy
                could she kick *ss!   Normandy is a great studio,
                I love it there.  THat's where Formicide recorded
                their second demo.
                
                Also,  Formicide  is  back together, however they
                have  a  new singer, all new songs (they  dropped
                everything  they ever wrote as Formicide :'() and
                are now called "Only Living Witness".

153.5A new singer?SNDCSL::BLEIWAStravelin' incommunicadoTue Dec 26 1989 14:389
    I graduated with the (ex?) lead singer of MR, I think his
    name is Mike Monroe (not another one!)....I think some of the other
    guys live or used to live in Stoughton,MA....We graduated from
    Randolph High in Randolph,MA.....I guess that would make him 21 or so..
    Can't say I was friends with any of them, though....He and his
    friends were what me and my friends called 'futures' - because they
    didn't have any.  They were always in all the remedial classes,
    always getting kicked outta school, smoking in the bathrooms,etc.

    RE:.9
    I assume you're talking to me, I thought you were serious!
    RE:.8 Yeah, the old member of Hanoi Rocks...
    
    Question: Didn't Vince Neil of Motley Crue have to spend a year in
              jail and do a charity concert because he killed the 
              drummer of Hanoi Rocks? I heard they were drunk, driving
              in Neil's Pantera, and they crashed.  I think Vince also
              had to pay the drummer's family like 1.5 million or
              something....

153.11Vince's crashBINKLY::MINARDINo remorse, no repentWed Dec 27 1989 13:4117
    re.10
    	Oh no no no I wasn't referring to you, and I wasn't serious
    either, sorry about that Mike!!!
    
    	Well, Vince was partying all day with Razzle. They ran out of
    beer, so they hopped in Vince's Pantera and headed down the PCH
    to buy another case of Bud. What I think happened is that they
    were traveling at a high rate of speed, crossed over onto the
    wrong side of the road, and slammed into a car head-on, killing
    Razzle, and seriously injuring a woman (women?). Vince had to do
    some time, and a LOT of community service, and a HUGE amount of
    money to the woman he injured and probably something towards Razzle's
    family I would guess. I've heard that the guilt he went through/lives
    with is enormous. Definitely a tragedy, but what you sow is what you
    reap, right?

    RE:-1
    How true, how true, I'm sure the guilt is exponentially greater than
    the money or the time.......at least he has got over it enough to
    put out kick@$$ albums with the rest of the Crue!

    Mike Monroe of Hanoi fame is from Finland not Sweden.  Close, though.
    
    His real name is Matti Fagerholm (it's easier to pronounce if you stuff
    your mouth full of marsh mallow first of all!).

153.14Solitary solitudeKETJE::VLASIUTue Dec 11 1990 15:0211
    This is one of the best surprises I had this year (in HM music). They
    play very heavy rock with killing riffs and a very powerful voice
    recalling the style of Wild Dogs. The compositions are strong and the
    theme of the album is about imprisonment and privacy of liberty.
    Razzor Ribbon is the best song for me but all the rest is very good
    too. The singer from Wargasm participates for some background vocals
    (Bob Mayo). The name of their actual singer is Mike Munro (and he's
    excellent). After the holiday I'll introduce their line-up in a reply.
    Highly recommended.

153.15Band line-upKETJE::VLASIUFri Jan 11 1991 07:0011
    Her is the line-up of this excellent power metal band:
    
    Stuart Dowie	- drums
    Jesse Johnson	- bass
    Jim Koury		- guitars
    Mike Munro		- vocals (nothing to do with Michael Monroe)
    Anthony Nichols	- guitars
    
    Definitely one of the best heavy metal bands actually !

153.18Awesome tape!!! One of the best.....MPGS::HOWESHold your heartbeat in your hand.Wed Jan 22 1992 23:3313


	I also broke out my old Meliah Rage 'Kill to Survive'.
	This tape is awesome.  I don't know why I haven't looked
	for more by this band.  The guitars have a dark heavy 
	feel to them, and the lead singer goes well with the
	music.  I highly recommend this tape to all *HEAVY metal
	lovers, and speed metal fans.  I will be listening to
	this one for a long time I am sure....
