Release Date – Halloween, October 31st, 2000 It is a cool October night at midnight, and I have returned home and ascended my staircase to find a sinister, little package ominously waiting for me at my doorstep.

If you’ve gotten your copy of the latest work by this band, you already know that Fueled By Ignorance are a force to be reckoned with. I finally found the time to ask the band about a few things, and got my response from vocalist Simon Springer. He replied promptly, with well thought out answers. …
Release Date October 31, 2000 Professional Murder Music have appeared with the likes of industrial-glam Orgy, evil disco gods Static-X, toured with comic book rock supernovas Powerman 5000, and contributed to the soundtrack for Arnold Schwarzenegger’s movie End Of Days. Hell, they’ve even done a stint beside self-proclaimed white trash, Kid Rock. As a young …

Jason: The “bald, mean” one. Kevin: The “hot” one. Get to know the guys in real life, however, and the story would …
8.10.00 Butterflies. You know what those are, right? When you can’t seem to calm down, no matter how hard you try; and neither does that fluttering feeling in your stomach. Well, I had those for a good 10 hours before this show. Why, you ask? Read on and you, my patient friends, shall learn the …
8.4.00 Warning: This review will be completely and totally biased, predisposed, unfair, and partial. Now that we have that out of the way, let me explain to you just how much it rocks to see a OneLineDrawing show. Jonah Matranga will be the first to remind you that he’s not that much different from any …
8.5.00 Following in the footsteps of futuristic rock predecessors like Strapping Young Lad, Filter, Ultraspank, Gold Lives Underwater, Gravity Kills, Pitchshifter and so many others; gives new bands in the genre of electronically-influenced rock much to live up to.
