Beer Metal.

Swinging back to the U.S., one band came together about 2003, named "Dirty Rig". Self proclaimed, Beer/Metal, the label seems to fit. It has a Grunge/Metal feel, but carries itself well. They have produced only 2 albums, "Blood, Sweat and Beer Make America Strong" and "Rock Did It". They had their original vocalist, Ed, who after recording their debut album, assisted with a few tour shows before he simple refused to remain joined.

This, having certain complications within the group, led them off to bad terms, and ended up getting contact with Kory (Warrior Soul) through a Friend of the Bassist Buckshot. Having done so, they recorded "Rock Did It" with Kory. Containing a theme similar to his band, the near anti-political type, they got along well for that album. And, they covered another of Kory's side project songs. The "Space Age Playboys" song titled 'Cities, Scenes and Thieves'. Portrayed with a more Metal sound, but just as good.

After a short tour afterwords, Kory left to pursue another project, having been between before he was contacted, and the band was once again voiceless. Once again they have hit a hard point, and ended up getting disbanded. However the bassist Buckshot, has created another band to carry on, named "MothEater".

Currently, no material has been released, but from 'Dirty Rig' it will probably be similar, but just different enough to stand out.

But with that said, check them out: Dirty Rig

Well, it is yet another notch for Kory Clarke, but the band was good while together. Not everyone get's along all the time. This is point enough. But this also grants high hopes for the new "MothEater". Keep watch over them. They have announced that within a few weeks (of posted message) that a few tracks will be available.

Yet a 'soon to be' U.S. band. With that said, till next time.

Cheers.
