BIOHAZARD - 2008 wieder in Originalbesetzung

[niffi]

Die Orginal-Formation der Band will sich in diesem Sommer für einige Shows wieder zusammen finden.

Official press release:

The original lineup of the highly influential New York-based group Biohazard, whose intense fusion of the aggression of hardcore, punk and thrash metal with the socio-critical commentary and authenticity of hip-hop earned the band extensive international acclaim will reunite for a series of performances in the summer of 2008 to commemorate the band's 20th anniversary. Bassist/vocalist Evan Seinfeld, guitarist/vocalist Billy Graziadei, drummer Danny Schuler and guitarist Bobby Hambel have not performed together publicly since 1995, when Hambel left the group at the end of the touring cycle for Biohazard's third album and major-label debut, "State Of The World Address."

Like its predecessor, the landmark "Urban Discipline" (1992), "State Of The World Address" sold more than 1 million copies worldwide and capped the band's evolution from a Brooklyn local favorite into an international success. In recent years, Schuler kept busy by playing drums for the band Bloodclot and occasionally mixing music for other artists, frequently in collaboration with Graziadei. In addition to his success with his new band Suicide City (currently working on the second release) Graziadei also stays active producing and recording bands in his studio; Underground Sound Studios. Seinfeld, meanwhile, remained in the public eye via high-profile appearances on HBO (five seasons on the critically acclaimed prison drama "Oz") and VH1 ("SuperGroup"), as well as a column in Stuff magazine. Additionally, he shot photos for such publications as Playboy, Penthouse and FHM and voiced characters in the video games Manhunt, The Warriors and the forthcoming Grand Theft Auto IV, and as CEO of Teravision, he currently manages the career of his wife, leading adult film star Tera Patrick, whom he has directed and performed with under the name Spyder Jonez. He also recently launched a new band, The Spyderz.

Seinfeld admits that none of these extracurricular activities would have been possible without the success of Biohazard, and looks forward to returning to his roots. "Biohazard was the single most important chapter in our lives," he says. "Our music brought us together and helped us rise up out of the streets of Brooklyn. Our journey has been an amazing one, and for me, it's all about my brothers Billy, Bobby and Danny, and of course the fans, whose undying support has never given up on the hopes of a reunion of the original band. I'm proud to announce that the four of us have decided to bring our special brand of hardcore tribal ceremony better known as a Biohazard live show to select venues across the globe. Here comes the pain, and see you in the pit, motherfuckers!" Adds Hambel, "We owe it to ourselves and to everyone who wants to see the original band reunite. We've lost a lot of great friends and musicians over the years, but we're still here — and it's time to set the record straight!"

In early January, the original Biohazard members met and rehearsed together for the first time in a dozen years. "To be in the same room with old friends again fuckin' rocked," says Graziadei. "We created something unique back in the day and I'm psyched we can all hang together and recapture that vibe. It's like time stood still and we're all 19 again!" "I'm extremely happy that we're all friends again," Schuler adds. "Life is too short, and all the fights, rumors and beefs don't matter anymore. What matters is the four of us being friends and getting up on stage again together. I can't wait to do this."

ich hatte das auch doppelt - hab dann eins davon mit meiner großen cousine gegen so n´ beschissenes GRAVE-tape getauscht. die hat mich voll abgezogen die dumme kuh..

[teenageripper]

große begeisterung allerorten? als die das letzte mal (2002 ??) da waren hats kein schwein mehr interessiert, ausser ein paar kids und leuten die irgendwo kurz hinter "urban discipline" stehen geblieben waren. jedenfalls sahen die ganz schön alt aus gegenüber den vorbands (ich glaube terror und caliban) naja, was der herr sänger seitdem "getrieben" hat finde ich da weitaus interessanter...

[8BALLINASOCK]

ich fand die auf der 02er tour ziemlich gut. ziemlich gute setlist und auch stimmung war top, da konnten terror dann doch noch nich mithalten...

[crs]

aber do or die hahaha

[8BALLINASOCK]

stimmt, wegen denen sind wir überhaupt erst da hingefahren

[myk]

.................trotz der miesen letzten alben, hab ich die live gut in erinnerung. 2001 oder/und 2002 beim force waren die hammer. 2003 im gladhouse dann nich mehr.

[omerta]
