Drummer BOBBY JARZOMBEK Issues Update On HALFORD, SEBASTIAN BACH, FATES WARNING

September 5, 2007

Drummer Bobby Jarzombek (HALFORD, SEBASTIAN BACH, ex-ICED EARTH) has issued the following update:

"First off — good news for all you HALFORD maniacs stateside! If you haven't picked up the import version already, 'Metal God Essentials Vol. 1' will finally be in stores via Metal God Entertainment/Super D Independent Distribution on September 11; copies are also available directly from Rob's webstore at RobHalford.com. I just got mine the other day and the digipak version looks awesome — very nice packaging! In addition to the audio CD, which includes two new studio tracks, 'Forgotten Generation' and 'Drop Out'. There is also a DVD with all the HALFORD promo videos and other visuals so you definitely get your money's worth.

"On the live front, I'll be back with SEBASTIAN BACH for the Edge Fest 2007, set to take place Saturday, September 22 on the Altamont Fairgrounds, Altamont, New York. '(Love Is) A Bitchslap', the first single off 'Angel Down', featuring co-lead vocals by Axl Rose of GUNS N' ROSES, has an official radio impact date of September 4 — yesterday! Axl is contributing vocals on three of the album's songs — 'Bitchslap', our cover of AEROSMITH's 'Back In the Saddle', and 'Stuck Inside'. The album is set for release on November 20 through a joint venture between Merovingian Music, Ltd. (MRV) and Sebastian's Get Off My Bach Productions, distributed worldwide through the Caroline/EMI Music Group.

"After doing the Evolution Fest with FATES WARNING last July, I'm going back out with Jim Matheos and the guys in November for a short European tour. Confirmed dates so far are as follows (more shows are in the works — stay tuned for venues and dates):

Nov. 10 - Zoetermeer, Netherlands
Nov. 11 - Frankfurt, Germany
Nov. 12 - Hamburg, Germany
Nov. 14 - Ludwigsburg, Germany
Nov. 15 - Cologne, Germany
Nov. 16 - Weert, Netherlands
Nov. 17 - Helendoorn, Netherlands

"Last but not least, check out the new ROB ROCK disc, 'Garden of Chaos', which came out in Japan on August 22 via Victor Entertainment/JVC Music; the import version, which comes with different artwork, is available from CD Japan for fairly low dough. It will be issued in Europe on September 23 through AFM Records and in North America on October 23 through Candlelight Records. I played on all but one song on Rob's last album, 'Holy Hell', and I'm on two tracks, 'This Time is the Last Time' and 'Ride the Wind', this time around. Once again my good friend and HALFORD band mate Roy Z, who also helmed the Sebastian Bach album, co-produced and wrote most of the songs."
