Good News about Sebastian Bach

Hardrock Haven interviewed Sebastian Bach about his new album "Angel Down," VH1 "reality" show "SuperGroup," and what it was like recording and distributing without a label. Some excerpts below.

Hardrock Haven: The downside of Ted Nugent is his lack of flexibility towards change within his own music. His greatest mistakes has been staying in the same shell and never being open to adaptation, even if it was in the best interest of his music. On "SuperGroup", I thought this was shown pretty clearly as he would not listen to Evan's BIOHAZARD material to get a feel of who he was playing with. What's your up close and personal take on this, was he more open than it appeared?

Sebastian Bach: Nugent is the alpha male in whatever situation he walks into; coming from me, that is amazing because it's usually been me. My height, my hair, it's all big and loud, but Nugent overshadows Bach. Think about it dude, he's a lead singer, he does not want another singer, he's a great singer!

Hardrock Haven: Were you a QUIET RIOT fan? Do you have any feelings or comments on the passing of Kevin DuBrow?

Bach: You got to remember my background. My first tour was opening up for BON JOVI and no matter what everyone says about JOVI, they know how to party, plus they have a lot of money, so there was plenty of everything. Then my second tour [was] AEROSMITH, then we did MÖTLEY CRÜE on our next one. Then GN'R was up next and finally we chose PANTERA to open the last SKID ROW tour I was on. Now you tell me what else have I known? I mean, do you kick a dog for shitting in your living room, hell that's all I know, it's all I've ever known. Well I am sad that he passed, but it's simply another example that cocaine sucks. I don't do coke; my deal has been pot and red wine. I have seen to many people die from it, like my friend Shannon Hoon and now Kevin DuBrow. I have never spanked my sons but I will put them in the hospital if I ever find out they're doing hard drugs like ecstasy, acid or cocaine. Go ask John Entwistle about cocaine. So the answer, I guess, you should really say of what I think of Kevin DuBrow dying is cocaine fucking sucks.

Hardrock Haven: What are your future goals and dreams within the music business as well as other?

Bach: It's too obvious of an answer I am standing in my living room looking at the SKID ROW records. Hell, one of them 6,000,000 sold in U.S alone, but the Internet has changed everything. Hell, I have 84,000 friends on MySpace; if every one of them bought my album that would be cool, but with the Internet pirating and ripping a copy for their friends, that's not going to happen. When I hear an album like HATEBREED's "Supremacy", I go to the store and I buy it because I don't want it (metal) to die. These guys don't care about the industry; they just want to be my friend on MySpace. It's fucking crazy. It took me seven years to do this record. I know one thing: it's going to be a long, long time before you see another CD from me. Hell who knows; maybe I'll get a call from another "Fear Factor" to eat some bugs, so I can do another CD. (laughing)

I bolded and underlined what is important to notice. "Angel Down" was just piss and shit awful. I would rather listen to cats scratching newborn babies while Fran Drescher and Rachel Ray scissor each other while cackling in the background, than listen to one second of "Angel Down." Seven years is actually too soon for another turd burgularing album like "Angel Down."

Oh the Humanity

    While Capt. Anonymous' oddball fantasy would be rather repulsing, lets look for that silver lining. At least they can't combine their DNA to create a super mongoloid endowed with great size and power but with no functioning brain. I believe that's what the French would call a "mistake."
