IMPELLITTERI / ANIMETAL USA guitarist Chris Impellitteri recently posted the following message on Facebook:
"I just realized after all these years I totally ripped off Dio when I wrote this song... ha ha. I must have loved DIO and his band more than I knew at the time! Long Live our friend Ronnie James Dio!"Impellitteri recently issued the following update:
"The music industry is completely controlled and manipulated by businessmen and women. Unfortunately, even the metal community is becoming controlled by the few. I can personally tell you guys for years even my own band has been forced into smaller markets due to rejection from the bigger labels, which is sad when we play circles around 90 percent of these lame ass artists.I guess I truly owe all of our fans a debt of gratitude for standing by Impellitteri and Animetal. We will continue to play great music and fight this lame ass music industry!"
