Former Megadeth guitarist, Glen Drover, joins a list of metal heavyweights in the re-recording of three classic Grim Reaper songs. All proceeds of the songs will go to Steve Grimmett's (Grim Reaper) medical and recovery costs. As Posted on The Metal Voice Facebook Page here

Glen Drover expressed his excitement about the project to The Metal Voice: “I feel really good about helping in any way I can... I grew up with Grim Reaper, and Steve is an awesome singer!"

The relief project is spearheaded by bassist Tony Dolan from Venom Inc., and aided by Neil Turbin (ex-Anthrax, Deathriders), Sy Keller (Onslaught) and Jimmy Kay (The Metal Voice).

Tony Dolan had this to say about the re-recordings on February 4th on a live stream in Ecuador: ”There were quite a few choices we could make but once I asked the artists, everyone wanted to do “See You In Hell” and “Fear No Evil”, they are classics. “The Show Must Go On” will also be included because that is what the man (Steve Grimmett) is going to do and that is what he will be doing stronger than ever. We will put  out the songs on 7” as well as digital downloads."

Steve Grimmett has been hospitalized in Ecuador since mid-January; the singer was amidst a tour in support of Grim Reaper’s latest album, Walking In The Shadows.
