Phil Anselmo, Pig Destroyer, Cattle Decap members start band
This week a Facebook page was launched for a new band called Scour. Why is this newsworthy? Because the lineup of this band consists of Philip Anselmo (Pantera, Down), Derek Engemann (Cattle Decapitation), John Jarvis (Pig Destroyer, Agoraphobic Nosebleed), Chase Fraser (Animosity), and Jesse Schobel (Strong Intention).
In a interview with Hellbound.ca, Anselmo suggests that he and his bandmates might complete a new EP this winter:
"The Scour thing was something that just popped up, and it's something that I think I can kill, something I can lay it out. They're short songs. It's a short EP, and that's something I can knock out, I guess, after the Danzigs tour. And yes, I said Danzigs, and that's a long story.
"I think (there's) one of the fellows from Cattle Decapitation, but it's predominantly, in my ear, modern-ish black metal-sounding, thrashy black metal type stuff. I'm going to put my own spin on it. I don't have to sound like your boy from Gorgoroth [laughter] to get the point across, man. There's other ways of singing over that style of music, and I shall employ many styles."
We'll see what happens.
