OBITUARY Frontman: 'Holland Was A Blast!'

May 9, 2005

OBITUARY frontman John Tardy has posted the following message on the group's official web site:

"We just got home last night after a loooong few days of travel. We left on Thursday, practiced on Friday in Holland, Played on Saturday and flew back home on Sunday. We had such a good time, as we always do in Holland, at the Dynamo [festival], I would do it again in a heartbeat! Jon Oliva [SAVATAGE, JON OLIVA'S PAIN] is a good friend, my favorite singer and playing, hanging out and partying with him in Holland was a blast! If you can only imagine a couple of rednecks from Florida getn'-er-done in Holland!!! We are getting so many friends there now it is starting to feel like home!

"We will be back playing in Tilburg, Holland on June 23, 2005! Hope to see you all there!

"The Dynamo people put together a really good Festival this year with a bunch of great bands and I think everyone there enjoyed it a lot!"

"Everyone has been all over me to hear some new stuff so here it is!" continues Tardy. "'Insane' is one of the first songs we wrote for the new CD and is also the song we have been playing live. Check it out and let me know what you think. Keep in mind it is only a MP3 and it will sound better off the actual CD!"

"Insane" comes off the group's upcoming self-titled album, due on July 12 via Roadrunner Records (one day earlier internationally). The group's first collection of new songs since 1997's "Back from the Dead" was self-produced by the band, with Mark Prator and Scott Burns engineering, and was mastered by Tom Morris at Morrisound.
