Questions for Ultimatum?

Did Scott receieve the UPS package yet???

Hey Glenn,
My wife said there is UPS box sitting at our house waiting for me!

Well???

Hey Glenn, I sent you an email! You rule!

Any way you guys would produce white vinyl logo stickers? I'd bet they would sell. Your logo would look good on my dark tinted back window on my truck.

Ever think of putting out the Fatal Delay and Symphonic Extremities demos out on disc?

We have those stickers. We sell them at shows. If you want one, just contact Robert at ultrametal@msn.com. We have/had white and green stickers. I have a white one just like the picture above on the back windshield of my Mustang.

Awesome, thanks ult.

The Symphonic demos were released on CD. The Symphonic Extremities CD is actually a collection of the two demos we did in 1994 & 1995. As well, when Retroactive re-released Symphonic on CD it contained a couple tracks from the Fatal Delay demos as well.

We've been discussing it Tink. We really want to do it, but we need to see if we can get some financial help to get out there. I need to talk to our label. If we can get the money for plane fair we'd love to be there.

Not with Ultimatum. I've performed in Switzerland with Once Dead.

I got one.... Who does the songwriting? and is there a process the band goes through when writing material?

Most of the time I write the lyrics and the vocal melodies to the songs. Robert wrote the lyrics for two songs over the past three albums as well. He wrote the lyrics for Puppet of Destruction and Game Over.

Robert has come up with the lion's share of the riffs over the years for the songs, although since Rob has joined on bass he has written a lot of riffs as well. It's not always exactly the same, but basically, we get together and hash out the songs together at practice until we come up with something we all dig. Sometimes Robert will come to practice with a song nearly worked out, and then we still hash it out and make it work for the band.

In the two cases of Robert writing the lyrics, I'll still come up with the vocal melodies and usually change the lyrics to work for me. In Puppet of Destruction, he wrote most of the verses and I came up with the title and chorus.

It's almost always a group effort.

Thats awesome, thanks for answering that, Im always fascinated on how bands hash out the material

Does anyone play any different instruments than what they play in the band? ult, can you play an instrument?

I started playing drums some years ago, but don't really play. I can probably still keep a beat, but that's about it.

Does the Ultimatum members(or the whole band) ever get asked to play worship at sunday morning services?

No. Back in the 90's, Ultimatum used to lead worship at Healing Waters Ministry. Robert was the leader, my wife and I sang, and Sean Griego played drums. We didn't have a bass player for worship.

...a sexual organ located in the lower abdominal area!

Do any of the members, other than Bronto, have a superfluous third nipple?


And if not, why?

Pretty sure Ult has one too. He may have had surgery to have it removed though.

Do you guys plan on ever doing a proper video for a song? Something simple, but official?
