Lead vokillist Gord THE EXALTED PILEDRIVER Kirchin has issued the following update:

"Hellacious MegaHails, my Metal-Addled Minions of The Metal Inquisition!!

After my posting a whining, cringing, even caustic complaint on Facebook the other day about how pissed off I am that I'm still getting messages from Piledriver fans stating that they have not yet received their paid-for copy of Metal Manifesto, Rob Cranny of Northern Storm Records has sent me a message about this matter, stating that there will be a finite time period within which you will be able to stake your claim for your missing Metal Manifesto.

It comes to my attention that while I have been responding to your queries by forwarding contact information for Northern Storm (even posting some on the main page of this site and at sofa-q.com), according to Mr. Cranny, you guys have NOT been following through to contact him, despite your telling me you have done so, and repeating to me that you've received no response from him. While I have done everything I can do from my end, even though I have not been associated with Northern Storm for many months now, to the point of even mailing out every single one of my own personal copies of Metal Manifesto to long time fans who felt ripped off, Mr. Cranny states (amongst other things) that he has not been receiving any complaints from YOU the fans... just mine.

In his message (included below in its entirety so as not to lose the context of it all) you will find current contact info on when/where to contact him to claim your missing Metal Manifesto. You may even leave him some of your thoughts on the situation if you wish."
