December 7, 2009, 14 years ago
AbortMag.com's E.S. Day has issued an interview with THE COMPANY BAND/CLUTCH singer Neil Fallon. The following is an excerpt:
Q: ...Today we are focusing on The Company Band, which I guess Neil, we could say is a rock supergroup, or are you already fed up with that tag?
A: "Well we are no CHICKENFOOT."
Q: Holy fuck, now you just fucking ruined my first bit, I had a whole thing on Chickenfoot, so thanks Neil (laughs). So rock supergroup. Let’s just say this; to me I am in my forties, growing up – a rock supergroup to me would be like you just mentioned, Chickenfoot, where you bring in all these guys but The Company Band seems to be more of a conglomerate of good buddies from some, really well followed and respected bands who got together to jam and then made an album out of it. Is that more or less what it is? You’re not marketing this as a supergroup?
A: "No, supergroup is just such a terrible moniker. I wouldn’t want to be in a super group to be quite honest. This started I think Jesse [Margera, drummer CKY] wanted me to sing on some and then we kind of, everybody just hit it off so we said lets make more music simply because it’s fun."
