Biogenesis news...

Chaz, vocalist of Jacob's Dream and the formerly defunct Biogenesis left this message about the possible reunion of Biogenesis.

Quote :

I have noticed that there have been alot of
people commenting on how they wish that Bio would have made another
album. Reading and hearing that only makes me want to do it even more.
The fact is I would love to see it happen. James and I have been
talking about this for some time now. The drummer and Bassist of Human
Paradox have agreed to take part in this if it should happen. In order
for this to come true 2 major things will have to happen. 1. I need to
find the time to work on it. As most of you know I am a full time
member of both Jacobs Dream and Human Paradox and I want to make it
clear that I do not want this to hender either of my 2 bands. 2. We
will need to come up with a way to record the record and distribute it.
If these things could happen then you just might get to see a reunion
album and maybe a few shows. IF this ever happends I already have a
title for the album but I wont reveal that unless it becomes a
reallity. Only time will tell. We shall see.

Chaz

What do you all say? Any fans of this band or their debut album?

I loved their debut album when it first came out. It was different then what Rowe Productions was known for, but I think the lack of guitar solos made me lose interest in the band after a while.

That was always my problem with the album too. It seemed like there were suppose to be solos in the songs but they were just left off. Chaz told me that they did record solos but their producer thought they weren't needed and didn't want to include them. Some of the songs sound empty to me without them.

The 1st album was good but then things got out of hand with them and all the member changes and such. I just know for sure that the old bassist needs a beating severely.

I wish Biogenesis luck, but if they want to continue, go for it.

I'd buy it.

Weren't you the original drummer Luri?

I would be interested in some new music from Biogenesis. I like that first release quite a bit. I did not find the lack of solos to be any sort of deterrent from enjoying the music.

Dont worry there will be solos on the next album.,

Their demos were the best stuff they did. Wish they would have stayed a little more gritty like they were on the demos.

No I wasn't the original drummer. That was an idiot named Nevin Cline. I replaced that dude for like a month. I let him have his position back as drummer and I moved back to San Jose. Then I helped form AoB.

Seeing how much of a thrash guy you are, it's hard to imagine you in a band like Biogenesis. I guess versatility is key.

I have a burn of those demos, but the copy sucks, it skips and pops all over the place. It's unlistenable due to it. I'd like to get a good clean copy of that.

Well I am not just a thrash guy. haha I like a lot of styles. Biogenesis just had a certain something about it that made it killer. There were thrashy parts, death metallish type parts and other stuff, but I always viewed it as a metal band through and through.

I too was wishing for solos in the first album because the music was just so damn good. Fat Man From China is one of my favorite songs and definatly one I would cover if I was in a band.

sounds cool, go ahead and jump on the reunion bandwagon guys, there's always room for more.

I hope they do another album - they had an cool sound on the first album. Need the solos for sure though.

There WILL be a new album! Its called "Point Of Origin". We will start recording in or around July. The first album will be re-issued as well.

Chaz, did you say the re-issue will include the omitted solos or not? I can't remember on the other board I read that on...

No sorry there is no way to re mix the disc it can only be remastered.

Yeah, but will there be a solo album?

I have a burn of the Bio demo that Jake(aka Trashcanman) burned for me years ago. The demo has guitar solos and as Saxon mentioned, is a lot grittier. I believe that the demo was recorded in a higher tuning than the actual release. The guitar sound on the demo is nowhere near as muddy as on the album.

Anybody have the Metal Mardi Gras compilation? It has what was supposed to be a song from the next Bio album called Fall Back. Man, that song smokes!!! I was really excited for more material from them in that vein and then they broke up.

I'm really excited for a new Bio album!!!

Yeah baby "Fall Back"! You can also hear another song called "Catalyst For Malice" on our myspace as well as a couple of these old demo tracks! Checkem out!
