As you may know, SUPREME PAIN’s current drummer Paul is injured and will probably no longer be able to play the drums for the band.

Because of that the band is now searching for a good Death Metal drummer! SUPREME PAIN play brutal Death Metal with an old-school touch. The future drummer should know how to play fast double bass drums and blast beats.

The rehearsals will take place in the Rotterdam area, Netherlands. Regular rehearsals as well as commitment to the band are really important for them. Rehearsals take place on Monday or Tuesday evening.

If you are interested, contact the band via supremepain@gmail.com

GEORGE LYNCH – Influential and legendary guitarist and songwriter – George Lynch, aka “Mr. Scary” turns 57 years young today. George Lynch was born on September 28th, 1954. Happy Birthday George!

George Lynch has had an amazing career in Hard Rock and Heavy Metal, with his notable tenure as Dokken’s lead guitarist being an important chapter in Heavy Metal and Hard Rock history. George’s post Dokken career is yet another standout chapter in Heavy Music history. George has enjoyed much admirable success with his Heavy Metal/Hard Rock band Lynch Mob along with his highly respected solo career.

Back on July 19th, 2011, the brand new George Lynch album Kill All Control was released. This blazingly Hard Rockin’ and Heavy Hittin’ album features the virtuosic guitar of George Lynch, while boasting the vocals of: Marc Torien, Will Marten and Keith St. John.

I once had the pleasure to interview George Lynch back in 2010 for Rob Rockitt’s industry-wide respected Hard Rock Hideout. To say George was a genuine and nice guy while we conversed is an underestimation. George loves to play and listen to all kinds of music and you can read all about it for yourself, by clicking on the large header link below:
