SOULFLY bassist Bobby Burns has issued the following update from his home in Florida:

"Wow... shit; I've been SO fucking busy. On the PRIMER55 front, I just signed a deal with Crash Music Inc., and we'll be re-releasing the very first P55 record, As Seen On TV. It's going to be a CD/DVD type of thing, and it should be really cool. I have a band with Eric Rogers (ex-STEREOMUD vocalist) and Frank Fonserain (ex-STUCK MOJO drummer) called LOVE SAID NO. I've been bouncing back and forth from Atlanta to here in Orlando for that. We recorded at my studio, The Porch, and I couldn't be happier with it! Our MySpace and all that shit will be up before I head out once again with Soulfly for Europe. I also just posted a few tunes that I did for my side project with Billy Keeton (ex-SKRAPE vocalist) and Will Hunt (TOMMY LEE, DARK NEW DAY drummer), and you can find that over at myspace.com/kingstreetmusic

Other than that, I'm just gearing up for Europe, and I'm excited as hell to get to work on the new Soulfly record!!!!!! It's gonna be fuckin' sick."

For those who don't know, Primer55 was Bobby's main musical outlet before he joined Soulfly full-time in 2003. The band formed in 1997, became a staple for the rapcore scene following their first two releases, toured with a bunch of quality bands, and sold a couple hundred thousand albums. After 2001, Primer55 ceased to play together and it was unclear whether they would work with each other as a band again. However, in the last year, Bobby and Primer55 vocalist Jason began to write some music again, and just last week they announced that the project has recently signed to Crash Music Inc. Their first release through the label will be a two-disc digipack constisting of an audio CD featuring a collection of unreleased tracks and a DVD of rare concert footage.
