ANGER AS ART Joined By Yet Another Member Of ABATTOIR
June 10, 2009, 15 years ago
Anger As Art have been formally joined by guitarist/vocalist Daniel Oliverio, who replaces the departed William Rustrum. “With all due respect to William, it was clear that musically he was moving in a different direction… a lot more progressive, and perhaps fusion than the formula that Anger As Art consists of. With Dan, there are no surprises. We have known each other for nearly 30 years. His rhythm style is so similar to mine - heavy palm mute, vibrato, and use of harmonics - that it is uncanny. Not to mention that he has a great voice, so the lead vocal trade off we have done since the beginning of AAA will continue.”
What about the new album?
Gaines continues: “Remember, this album was written before the last tour was done. So it is definitely an Anger As Art record. I want to say that no one should think that the line between Abattoir and Anger As Art will ever be blurred. They are separate entities – no one ever confused either band thus far in our history. Even with these guys involved, it sounds like Anger as opposed to Abattoir.“
