Title: Vinnie Pauls New Project Post by: Malcolm on August 12, 2006, 12:22:03 AM Former PANTERA/DAMAGEPLAN drummer Vinnie Paul Abbott has teamed up with members of MUDVAYNE and NOTHINGFACE in a brand new project, informed sources have told BLABBERMOUTH.NET. The group has been writing and recording material in Dallas, Texas for what will eventually become its debut album, tentatively due in early 2007. A name has already been selected for the band, but has not yet been revealed, the sources said. The group's lineup is as follows:
Chad Gray (MUDVAYNE) - Vocals Greg Tribbett (MUDVAYNE) - Guitar Tom Maxwell (NOTHINGFACE) - Guitar Jerry Montano (DANZIG, NOTHINGFACE) - Bass Vinnie Paul Abbott (PANTERA, DAMAGEPLAN) - Drums A headlining tour is tentatively expected to take place before the end of the year, although this has yet to be officially confirmed. In a June 2006 interview with the Fort Worth Weekly, Vinnie Paul spoke briefly about the new group, stating, "I have been working with different people, and I really can't tell you who they are right now because we're in the middle of everything. . . The more and more I go along, the more I miss playing, but it's all been part of the healing process, and time is truth. And if [the playing] I am [doing] right now becomes the real deal, then I will get back to it very soon." It should be noted that the new project's existence will not affect the status of MUDVAYNE, who are expected to begin writing material for their fourth album later in the month.

Title: Re: Vinnie Pauls New Project Post by: Izzy on August 12, 2006, 02:37:36 PM So MUDVAYNE with a different drummer?
Wow. Great :nervous: Surely a side project is with different people? What happened to Damageplan's follow up album - Vinnie said he and Dime had laid down loads of stuff for it, and when all the outtakes from the Pantera sessions are factored in should be no trouble finishing it off Title: Re: Vinnie Pauls New Project Post by: BLS-Pride on August 12, 2006, 02:51:30 PM I count 2 members of Mudvayne and two from Nothingface and Vinny.
And the New Damageplan and other Pantera shit will be out.. Its just a matter of time. Title: Re: Vinnie Pauls New Project Post by: metallex78 on August 15, 2006, 11:55:12 PM I'm not really into Mudvayne and I haven't heard any Nothingface music, so I'm not particularly interested in this. But if Vinnie is part of it I suppose I'll check it out.
Way more interested in unreleased Pantera and Damageplan. |
