Oh and.............THE BEST DM BAND EVER

Reifert, Cutler and the rest of those guys are amazing people! Autopsy stayed at my house in 91' or 92' when Mental Funeral came out. Saw Abscess twice and I've seen Autopsy a few times since they reformed and they ALWAYS remember me. Last Fall, I went up to Montreal for the Quebec Deathfest. Autopsy basically headlined and it was good seeing those dudes again. Chris just did a quote for the latest issue of a horror art mag I put.

What was the song/reissue from your tape?

Ya know how MOTORHEAD used to come on stage and say "we're Motorhead and we play rock-n-roll"?

AUTOPSY comes on stage as sez "We're Autopsy and WE ARE DEATH METAL" and I couldn't agree more

Gryzsss - If you dig Insect Warfare, Check out Beau and Dobber's new band MALIGNAT ALTAR, more old school DM and less blinding grind...... but it fuggin' kills!

CC with Barnes is the ONLY Cannibal.... the rest is just meh. I've seen them a few times over the years with George and been bored to tears

Total Boss HM-2 worship (they're at least Swedish though), but none the less solid as hell-

No jab, just my opinion. CC is still better than most DM bands that have been around this long, Corpsegrinder is a perfect vocalist for them, but Barnes was just insane and still is.

MORTICIAN is unfuckwithable. Here's a newer band doing justice to that style:

Have had these on heavy rotation the last few weeks-

Also , the sickos from Encoffinized have a new label called SEWER ROT RECORDS

Hahahaha.... here's my secrets for going to shows and being up front:

1- Like the band yer going to see - not worth it when yer iffy or on the fence about the the band
2- Vehicle drinks -gotta have at least 3-4 in the parking lot before even thinking about going in the show
3- Get to the show late - especially if the opening bands suck
4- Walk in and head to the stage like you own the place or are at least someone important (I'm 6'4" 300lbs)
5- Bullshit with the band, in the case of Obituary- I've known Terry Butler since the 80s
6- Post up in the best spot- I usually go for (the bands) stage left because I'm partially deaf in my right ear. Plus, when yer at the stage, you can set down the 3 drinks yer holding. Also- either side of the stage keeps you safe from the pit action
7- Fend off all the whiners behind you that can't see by saying "too fucking bad-should've gotten here earlier"
8- Enjoy the show!

The Obituary show was killer because they played in a tiny club, but these rules apply to every show that's packed with people though. The funniest part of this show was a mom (not some metal "chick") tapped me on the shoulder and said her daughter couldn't see and wanted to take photos. I gladly obliged letting her kid through to get to the stage but blocked the rest of the family from moving up. The mom again tapped me and motioned she and her husband wanted to get past me to be with their kid (who was probably 19). I shook my head NO and kept watching the band. Between songs she yelled in my ear "YOU'RE AN ASSHOLE" to which I yelled back.. "THAT'S KING ASSHOLE TO YOU"....hahaha fucking people!

Just heard about his passing, fuck...RIP
