July 5, 2011

Professionally filmed video footage of CHANNEL ZERO's June 25, 2011 performance at the Graspop Metal Meeting in Dessel, Belgium can be viewed below. Also available is a short interview with the band's lead singer, Franky DSVD.

CHANNEL ZERO's new video, "Hot Summer", can be viewed below. The song comes off the reunited Belgian metallers' new album, "Feed 'Em With A Brick", which was released last month in Belgium, Holland and Luxembourg through Roadrunner Records. The CD was recorded at a Los Angeles-area studio with producer Logan Mader (MACHINE HEAD, SOULFLY, CAVALERA CONSPIRACY, DEVILDRIVER, GOJIRA).

CHANNEL ZERO in January 2010 released a new single, "Black Flowers", with the help of internationally acclaimed guitarist Mikey Doling (ex-SOULFLY, SNOT).

The band's current lineup includes original members Franky DSVD on vocals, Phil B on drums and Tino De Martino on bass.

Guitarist Xavier Carion was forced to sit out CHANNEL ZERO's reunion concerts because of an injured ear and is being replaced by Doling.

CHANNEL ZERO 2011 is:

Franky DSVD - Vocals
Phil B - Drums
Tino De Martino - Bass
Mikey Doling - Guitar

CHANNEL ZERO's third album, "Unsafe" (1995),was the band's first effort to be released internationally. The group followed it up by touring with MEGADETH, DANZIG, SPUDMONSTERS and BIOHAZARD, and embarking on an Australian headlining run. A fourth album, "Black Fuel", followed in 1996 but it failed to make a dent on international charts, leading to the band's split in 1997.

CHANNEL ZERO was one of the most popular homegrown metal acts in Belgium, where the band's albums reportedly sold upwards of 20,000 copies each.
