CENTURY MEDIA Artists' Thanksgiving Traditions

November 23, 2005

Ready to carve their turkeys, watch the big game, and celebrate the season, North American Century Media artists have checked in with what they are doing for this week's holiday:

IMPALED's Ross Sewage reminded us of heritage. "This Thanksgiving, I'm going to sneak into unwary white people's houses and scalp them in honor of my ancestors. I will take their children and split their torsos so I can bathe in their blood. I will do the dance of vengeance in the name of 'The Great One' and I will curse and spit upon the memory of Christopher Columbus, the Pilgrims, and Andrew Jackson. Then... I'll probably meet up with my family and have a Tofurkey."

INCANTATION's mainman John McEntee says he is "looking forward to eating my mother in-law's Thanksgiving turkey and mashed potatoes. It's way better then being on tour and eating Taco Bell and Jack In The Box. I’m also looking forward to hanging out with my longtime friend Dieter. He is selling merch for the AEROSMITH tour and they have the day off for Thanksgiving. He'll be passing by my place on his way to their next show in Pittsburgh, so to see him will be way cool."

NEVERMORE's Jim Sheppard says he is "looking forward to sitting on my couch, watching football, and ignoring my family. Hot dogs and potato chips!" Having just returned home after six months of touring, the band deserves a day off in front of the TV. Jim continues, "Warrel [Dane, vocals] usually heads over to Jeff's [Loomis, guitar] to stitch up a turkey. He's a surgeon, stuffs it full of garlic and butter, it ends up amazing."
