HEADHUNTER's Schmier - "I'm Fuckin' Honoured That I Had The Chance Again To Play With My Mates After All These Years"
February 10, 2008, 16 years ago
HEADHUNTER, the side project of DESTRUCTION madman Schmier, drummer Jörg Michael (STRATOVARIUS) and guitarist Schmuddel (ex-TALON), are gearing up for the release of their forthcoming album, Parasite Of Society, due out via AFM on May 23rd.
Two songs from the album ('Doomsday For The Prayer' and 'Silverskull') are currently streaming at their MySpace page.
"I hope you have enjoyed the two new songs," comments Schmier. "We will post some more real metal within the next weeks.The album has a big range/variety, so it s difficult, to have an impression on the whole masterpiece, if you have only heard two tracks, I do fuckin' know that! This record really made my day in difficult times and goes back to the roots of Metal. My roots of music. I'm fuckin' honoured that I had the chance again to play with my mates, Schmuddel and Jörg after all these years.
Thanks a lot to YOU out there, YOU made this album possible! This is NO ass-lickin'...
It's payback time, that's why I'm posting stuff here many weeks/month in advance of the release.
My label will KILL me! Hargh, hargh! Stay true to yourself and your roots fuckers!"
