Earlier this month we heard a new
solo track from
The Dillinger Escape Plan vocalist
Greg Puciato, which featured former Dillinger member
Chris Pennie on drums.
Puciato performed all of the instruments on his forthcoming solo album,
Child Soldier: Creator Of God, with the exception of drums. As such, in addition to the aforementioned Pennie he recruited a pair of notable drummers to assist, namely
Chris Hornbrook of
Poison The Well and
Ben Koller of
Converge,
All Pigs Must Die, and
Killer Be Killed.
Hornbrook appears on a handful of the album's songs while Koller performs on a single track.
Speaking with
Kerrang, Puciato had this to say about the drumming on his album:
"Everything except for the drums. Some of it is electronic and doesn't have drums – in which case I've programmed them or had Nick Rowe help me. But I've known Chris Hornbrook since we were 23. He knows how to hit a drum. For a lot of the songs on this record, I knew he was the guy. And then Ben Koller – who drums in Killer Be Killed, Converge and All Pigs Must Die – is on a track. Chris Pennie, the original Dillinger drummer, is on a track, too. He's also done some orchestration and additional instrumentation on a few tracks as well."
Child Soldier: Creator Of God will arrive this summer.
