----------------------------
It was 2001 when rumors begin clogging the internet and
magazines alike that former Nirvana drummer and Foo Fighters main-man
Dave Grohl had ‘some new-fangled metal band’ coming out. The name
Probot became an instant point of interest for thousands. For over two
years, the rumors spread, morphed and magnified, and as of 2003/now
(!!), the secret sleeps no longer.
ALL RISE!!! . Probot is upon us and it’s far more than anyone
could have ever expected; an all-star performance record of monumental
proportions. The songs on the Probot album were written entirely by
Grohl. He then sent out these recordings to all of his favorite metal
vocalists from a specific period of time in underground metal (83 to
'90,) Each song features its own throat and Grohl also had help from a
few other dudes (Kim Thayill of Soundgarden lays a blistering solo down
on the King Diamond track, Bubba Dupree from Void is on the Mike Dean
track. etc...) Grohl enthustiacally explains: "There are some fast
tracks, the Cronos track (Centuries of Sin) is old school fast thrash
metal. The Lee Dorrian track ("Ice Cold Man”) is slow and has a dirge
to it. The Snake track ("Dictatorsaurus”) is kind of reminiscent of a
old Voivod track. The King Diamond track ("Sweet Dreams”) is slow. The
Mike Dean track ("Access Babylon”) is sort of like an old school metal
hardcore-crossover song. It moves in a lot of different ways. It isnt
about me; I’m just having the time of my life in fantasy camp being
able to create something with these people I listened to for years when
I was young.” Probot is a ecletic metal compilation. Each track is its
own unique entity, always potent, always compelling…. and completely
metal!
The first grimm taste of Probot will be a two-track 7” ,
limited to 6,666 copies, unleashed this November on Southern Lord
recordings.
This cult item will feature two Probot songs:
"Centuries Of Sin” with Cronos of Venom,
"the Emerald Law” featuring Wino of The Obsessed, Spirit Caravan, Place
of Skulls,
The full album, totaling eleven hard-hitting tracks (plus a
secret bonus track yet to be revealed), is to be released on February
10th, 2004 on Southern Lord Recordings and will be available on both CD
and 2xLP format. A video for the track "Shake Your Blood” will be
filmed in November.
