BIOGENESIS The magic is back!

As most of u already know we are preparing for a come back album through Retroactive Records. It will be our first album in 8 years! Now however there is more news. James and I have now reunited with our original line up! Thats right the same exact line up that brought u the first album is back! Tonight we were all jamming in the same room for the first time in 6 years and the magic was in the air. There were a few drummers and bass players that came along after they left and they were all very talented. For some reason however it just didnt feel the same. Now I know why. The return of drummer Nevin Cline and bassist Randy Walton has brought back that brotherhood mojo that we used to have back in 2001. We have also booked our first gig of the new Bio era. On Holloween night we will be playing our reunion comeback gig at the Anvil Fest in Liberty Kentucky. If you are interested in attending then please go to our my space for more details.

That would make for an interesting YouTube video.

Hi Randy, Shannon sends you greetings! BAM!

Some things are in the past and they need to stay there.
except for ummm blue moo lol

Good stuff - looking forward to hearing you guys.

I remember back when you guys were going to record the second album you mentioned it was going to sound like a mix of Iced Earth, Killswitch and a thrash band I believe (Deliverance, Slayer or something). Would you say that is still an accurate descripion of the direction?

I would say that it wouldnt be to far off. But then again we are the type of band that is very diverse so u never know what we are going to do next. All I can promise u is that it will still be heavy and will still also be melodic but it will be better. It will be Bio but more mature:)

When will you start receording the next one?

What's going to happen to Human Paradox?

We should start recording in about 2 to 3 months. We were supposed to start in late July but then we had the return of the other 2 original members so that set us back a few steps but the album wont be released until early next year acording to our label so we are good.

As for HP we are currently taking a break. Our drummer is also in another band and wanted to concentrate on a demo they are recording. This has allowed me to put more time into rebuilding Bio as well. So as far as we know HP will continue when our drummer is ready to go again. IF for some reason god forbid the band should fall apart then I just might have to recruit our guitarist and place him as a second fiddle in Bio.

That is the main reason i was asking, it would be a waste to lose him on guitar.

I've yet to hear any biogenesis. What do they sound like?

They are sort of a mish-mash of styles-some death metal, some groove, some thrash metal, some more modern influences. Chaz has a sort of David Bowie style when singing clean, but he also mixes in some more extreme styles as well.

Yeah sumthin like that. Although the David Bowie thing is more of a result of our guitarist tuning down into the abyss on that album. In my natural range Im more aken to a mix of like Barlow of Iced Earth a little dab of Bruce from Maiden and the second vocalist of Savatage. I NEVER even listened to David Bowie lol however I was always a huge Deliverance fan and I am often compared to Jimmy Brown who is indeed influanced by Bowie.

Cool. Didn't mean that as an insult. Bowie is an incredible singer IMO.

Na I didnt take it that way. However with Bowie being a pop guy who also just happends to like dudes, some Metal heads might draw an immediate steriotype and tottaly missunderstand lol You know Celine Deon is an amzing singer but because she sings pop, if u compare a metal singer to her then metal heads might go, eh??! lol no seriously its cool I take it as a compliment. I saw a review of the Dominion album by JD and this guy said that I was IMMITATING this singer but the problem was....Ive never heard of him!!! lol Soooo everyone hears what they hear either way.

Calling David Bowie a pop singer is like calling Da Vinci a painter...it doesn't come close to conveying his genius.

And merry? No...he's not merry.

Hey I take nothing from the guy I just dont happen to be a fan thats all. As for his life style I dont care what he or anyone else does with thier private lives. I was making a comment about goofy steriotypes that some people have in the Metal world.
