October 11, 2011, 13 years ago
Originally formed by HADES guitarist Dan Lorenzo and MUCKY PUP guitarist Dan Nastasi in 1989 (on vocals), NON-FICTION eventually reunited Lorenzo with former Hades vocalist Alan Tecchio. With Kevin Bolembach on bass and Mike Cristi on drums, Non-Fiction released three CDs in the early 90s: Preface, In The Know, and It's A Wonderful Lie.
Each of the bands three full-length CDS reached #1 on WSOU. The band's videos for 'The My Way' and 'Reason To Live' were featured on MTV's Headbangers Ball. Non-Fiction toured on their own as headliners in the US in addition to opening for OVERKILL in 1993. After the Overkill tour of America, Non-Fiction opened for Overkill and SAVATAGE in Europe.
"Back then we were really living hand to mouth", stated Lorenzo. "We have a bunch of fan filmed footage from our US shows, but until now I was never aware of any recording from our European tour."Audio from Non-Fiction live in Germany can be heard below:
Non-Fiction's reunion show from 2009 was filmed and released as bonus footage on the Hades DVD Re-United & Re-Ignited. Video from that show can be viewed below:
