Recently, an email arrived from a trusted promotional source in the UK, and much to my surprise it was to let me know about a new band that had risen from the ashes of a legendary metallic hardcore act. I was surprised that a favorite band of mine, Above All, had gone into indefinite hiatus.
However, the same musical pause had birthed a new project that excited me because my buddy, Tony Maddocks, of the aforementioned Above All, had a new thing and he was fronting it. We had to get together to chat about it, so here we are.
Gratefully, we were also joined by Ron D, a monster guitarist and songwriter who has partnered with Tony to create this new metal monster and breaker of souls.
I'm happy to be one of the limited few that get to announce the splash of this coming release! This, ladies and gentlemen, is Fates Messenger, and you're listening to Rockstar Superhero.
