Original SAIGON KICK guitarist Jason Bieler has launched a new project dubbed OWL STRETCHING, which he told BW&BK; first-hand is "a constantly morphing project with different guests that I use as a vehicle to release new music," recently posted an industrial-tweaked version of 'The Lizard' online. Check it out below or go to the official Owl Stretching Facebook page here for the track and other audio samples.

The original version of 'The Lizard' is the title track of Saigon Kick's second album, released in 1992, which featured vocalist Matt Kramer on lead vocals.

Bieler is also the co-owner of Bieler Brothers Records, home of DEATHSTARS, KARNIVOOL and SKINDRED in the US. Go to this location for more information.

As previously reported, Kramer is featured in a new interview discussing ongoing rumours of a full band reunion, and what it would take to make it happen. An excerpt from the story is available below:

Kramer: “We actually almost got together a couple years ago, and I don’t think anybody’s really talked about it publicly. I actually spoke to Jason Bieler (guitars) on the phone and we didn’t try to kill each other (laughs). It was a very gentlemanly conversation. I went in with my concerns, and I went in saying that I would like an equal share, of course, all the way down the line, even if I wasn’t in the band. We couldn’t come to an agreement on that, but that’s what I’m looking for. That’s the only way I can build up the brand again, because it isn’t doing very much right now. I’m always the singer of Saigon Kick, I don’t have to go out there in order to be the singer of Saigon Kick, but everybody seems to want to get out there. Can we come to terms? That, unfortunately, is the political bullshit of the matter, which definitely sucks because it would be cool to get back out there and rock again. I’m certainly in vocal shape, because I’m training singers now. My voice has never been better; it’s way better now that when Saigon Kick was active because I train every day. The band would definitely tear it up.”
