First up is a brand new recording by Axemunkee called "Catastrophic Twister", recorded by Brian Wanders at CDIA with help from Jonathas Barbados, Gabe Herman, and Dan Cardinal. That's Catherine Capozzi on guitars and bass, and me on giant drums.
Next is an acoustic version of "Kinetic Gypsy" by Axemunkee, recorded live on the air on WAAF. That's Catherine Capozzi on acoustic guitar, Chris Farrell on bass, Tamora Gooding on percussion, and me on drums.
Third is the opening track ("Standing On The Edge") from the latest Sendelica CD. We recorded this at Brown University on May 2, 2008. Pete Bingham on guitars, Glenda Pescado on bass, Nemesis on vocals, and me on drums.
Fourth is a demo recording of the Led Zeppelin cover band I'm in, featuring Ted Whiteside on vocals, Tony Savarino on guitar, Rich Cortese on bass, and me on drums.
Next is an old favorite of mine from Megalopolis, a power trio I played in during the late '90s. That's Frani Lugo on vocals and guitars, Jeff Miller on bass, and me on drums.
Track 6 is the opening segment of a lengthy live-in-the-studio jam by Directive 4 from 1999, featuring Jeff Miller on bass, Scott Collins on guitar, and me on drums. This was one of the first recordings I made with my Fostex 460 4-track machine.
Seventh is a Bentmen recording from the movie soundtrack "Mark Of The Astro-Zombies". That's Kathy Desmond ..boards, Crazy Eddie Nowik on guitars, Dark Mark White on bass, Frank Coleman on electronic drums, and me on acoustic drums.
Next is the latest track from my experimental Iron Snowflakes On Mercury project. That's Pete Bingham on guitar, Tim Mungenast on guitar, Lizzy Daymont on bass, Jeff Hudgins on alto sax, and me on drums.
Ninth is an old favorite from FirePig, "D.Y.R.M". That's Jeff Hudgins on vocals, Greg McMullen on guitars, Dark Mark White on bass, Al Natanagara on more guitars (I think), and me on drums.
Number ten is "Face On Fire", from Unwelcome Wagon, featuring Jeff Miller on vocals and guitars, Jeff Aach on Aachroach, Chris Farrell on bass, and me on drums.
Influences
Influences include drummers such as Ian Paice, John Bonham, Alex Van Halen, Terry Bozzio, Bill Bruford, Tony Williams, Joe Morello and Ginger Baker. And I can't forget my two favorite teachers, Ric Wright and Steve Wilkes!
Some producers that I especiallly look up to are Bill Laswell, Chris Goss, Ted Templeman, Jimmy Page, Frank Zappa, and of course, George Martin.
As for stuff I've been listening to lately, I'd say the top three represent a return to my roots: Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, and Dave Brubeck.

OUR FIRST FIVE STAR REVIEW FROM USA Sendelica: The Girl From The Future Who Lit Up The Sky With Golden Worlds
The instrumental outfit from Wales Sendelica returns with a fabulous collection of seven face melting jams on their brand new offering for RAIG called The Girl From The Future Who Lit Up The Sky With Golden Worlds. For this new disc the two principal members, Pete Bingham (guitars, electronics) and Glenda Pescado (bass) have enlisted two Boston area musicians Geoff Chase (drums) and Ed Guild (electronics) to join them on their lengthy, astral excursions. Kicking off with a brief snippet of sampled, ethic tinged female vocals "Standing On The Edge" quickly shifts into overdrive as Bingham slashes out a mammoth swath of thick power chords, as bursts of psychedelic sounding electronics swirl around his extended solos. His guitar lets out an extended run of feedback at the tail end of the track before seamlessly segueing directly into the metallic, twelve minute crunch of "Manhole Of The Universe". Bingham tears off solo after solo.... FOR FULL REVIEW GO TO... http://www.seaoftranquility.org/reviews.php?op=showcontent&id=7884
Hey Geoff! Thanks for your comment on Fallen. We recorded the drums at Caveman Music last Sunday where we recorded with you. You know you drummed on the original version of Fallen on that day as well. We'll have both versions (somehow) on the album.

Welcome to Billy's Bunker (Music Reviews)! It's been busy in the Bunker.
The latest review is Adrian Belew's "Side Two," which CD is good evidence that brother Adrian has become a full bodied 21st Century composer with a syntax of instrumental meaning from the chrysalis of Nuevo Metal born.
