Psychotic Waltz

This could be awesome.

Quote :

Four-fifths of the original lineup of PSYCHOTIC WALTZ, the cult early 1990s progressive metal band from El Cajon, California, has reunited.

PSYCHOTIC WALTZ 2010 is :

* Devon Graves (a.k.a. Buddy Lackey) - Vocals
* Brian McAlpin - Guitar
* Steve Cox - Guitar
* Ward Evans - Bass
* Norman Leggio - Drums

Original guitarist Dan Rock is not taking part in the reunion and is being replaced by Steve Cox, who previously played with PSYCHOTIC WALTZ on the band's 1996 tour.

PSYCHOTIC WALTZ's last studio album, "Bleeding", was released in 1996. Scott Burns engineered the effort, which was mixed by Dan Rock and Woody Barber.

In the years that followed PSYCHOTIC WALTZ's demise, Rock recorded two instrumental albums with his project DARKSTAR. In the meantime, Norm Leggio and Steve Cox created the band TEABAG, while Buddy Lackey launched his own group, DEADSOUL TRIBE, where he performs using his real name, Devon Graves.

In theory, it sounds great. I love Deadsoul Tribe, but I wonder if this will sound more like that band than classic Psychotic Waltz. Guess we'll see.

Awesome news. These guys were great back in the day.

Never heard Psychotic Waltz, but I like Deadsoul Tribe. The 2 bands aren't that similair though are they?

Tee-hee!!

Psychotic Waltz was heavier. More progressive, too, I'd say. There are similarities with Deadsoul Tribe, of course, ("My Grave," "I Remember," for instance), but overall Deadsoul Tribe is slower, moodier.

Both are great, though. If you dig Deadsoul Tribe, you owe it to yourself to check out Psychotic Waltz. You'll probably have to settle for downloads, though, unless you have the patience for cheap versions or the money to buy them at their normal going rate.

Yea, I took a quick look on Amazon and saw that most of the PW stuff was way outta my price range. Oh well.

Psychotic Waltz were great.Hope this turns out good

Psychotic Waltz was a killer band! i look forward to seeing what they come up with net.

One of the few prog-metal bands that ever piqued my attention. This should be interesting.

Liking what I hear. They need rereleases on their old stuff.

I just got a couple of their cds. Good stuff.

Great news!!

Norman Leggio is also the drummer for Cage. Shame they didn't mention that.
