An open letter to VITAL REMAINS,

1991:



The fans are sick of being ripped off, and as a fan since 1990 and I am gonna voice my opinion...

VITAL REMAINS started to slip with Dechristianize. If I wanna hear a 4-minute song played twice then I'll play it over, why do you have to play the damn song twice and record it as one song?! Way too much fat on that CD that could have been slimmed, trimmed, tightened-up & been a meaner and leaner beast of a release instead of mostly fluff to fill time. It aint epic if it's repetitive and boring after multiple listens!

Also, gouging fans at shows on merch is lamer than Jesus himself. How come all the tiny bands and labels are charging $15, $12 even $10 for shirts and VR stuff at the same shows are $20-$25? You don't think people notice that and talk about it? You go overseas and charge double what they would normally pay also so they can only get 1 shirt instead of 2 at a show?! What happened to "Forever Underground"? Doesn't that mean something? Last I heard that meant your band trying to sue the record label using that slogan for their name.

So then, you get Anthony (probably the best vocalist since Gruslin) and all the fans love him... great personality, amazing on stage, open, chatty, funny, cool and everyone hopes that he is gonna do the vocals on the new record so bad! so when you announce at the Living Room (Glen did) the fans booed and chanted "Anthony!" Glen just says "Satan pays the bills" and did another song in his lame monotone, yay?

Everyone just said "well they only care about the money they will get with Glen on another release" - wow, your fans are so sharp, huh?

So what happened to Dave Suzuki? Anybody know?

I had a great idea...

LET US INTO DARKNESS

(VITAL REMAINS tribute band)

The entire setlist is only stuff from:

Reduced To Ashes
Excruciating Pain
The Black Mass
Let Us Pray
Into Cold Darkness

Gruslin-era ONLY!!!

See if that happens with the old members, would outsell any current VR tour, guaranteed!

Can anyone say Jump The Shark?

vital remains was cool 6 years ago and as far as i'm concerned their riffs are still as relevant today. they can play "dechristianize" as much as they want and i'll still consider it ONE great metal song.

i mean, any moron can see that most of what they do is still pretty much the same song twice...but either way they still hit the hammer on the head of what they were goin for

...and the one time we played with 'TONY REMAINS' in Long Island they setup their merch table for the day with some chick behind the table to increase sales, then ended up leaving the show without playing AND with all the money to pay the other bands, us (a band from New England) and Intestinal Strangulation (From L.A.).

Fortunately the brother of the promoter personally sent us both money out of his own pocket via paypal days later apologizing for the actions of Vital Remains.

Some people just cant stop living in the past. I like the old school songs too but Dechristianize and icons of evil blows all the old albums away. I like how the songs have the same riff twice.

From Metal Archives:

Wrath_Of_War wrote: "I'm glad someone wrote this. I've only been a Vital Remains fan for about 5 years (My first VR album was Forever Underground). I actually do like the Dechristianize album. It was my 3rd VR album, and I thought it was great. The vocals were...eh...but the songwriting was awesome. But it really doesn't sound like Vital Remains. It sounds like a different band. Listening to the triggered drums gets annoying too. I don't know why so many people hate this. I suppose because the band was slipping away from their original sound. But I still think it was a great album. I'll take Dawn of the Apocalypse any day though.

Icons of Evil is a piece of crap. Before I heard it, I read that it was "Dechristianize part II." But I bought the CD, and found it to be boring...just boring. I can't even make it through a whole song. I love everything Vital Remains released up until Icons of Evil. Even if they got Anthony to do vocals on the most recent album, it still wouldn't be that good. Forever Underground? definitely not."

"The fact that Vital Remains plays nothing from albums before Dechristianize is EXTREMELY disappointing. I don't know how good they are live. I watched the YouTube video for Dechristianize from their new DVD, and it looked pretty intense...but where's the Let us Pray material? Fuck, Dave AND Tony were both in the band starting with Forever Underground. They ARE Vital Remains in my opinion (at least, Today's Vital Remains). Why can't they play any of that material? It really upsets me. All Vital Remains fans are going to argue which album was the best, but we can all agree that it wasn't the last two they released. Shaking head, they should play the older material."

I agree with the kid.

If you love metal, you want better metal, not hipster noise made and bought by the same self-pleasing community of 50,000 loser metalheads.

Vital Remains used to have more promise in my view.

id be willing to bet that vital is in a large amount of debt if they are willing to do what they are doing. seems like every band i meet, the "bigger" they are the more broke they are. im not arguing on their side. im just stating the obvious. they have a shit ton of bills and probably owe every record label they were ever on money. bah, welcome to the music industry.

Maybe I'm spoiled because I got to see and play with 'em a bunch during the Gruslin - Forever Underground days, but I'll take Gruslin/Flynn era (Paul's riffs were what made the band, for me) over anything after. Suzuki is a hell of a player and the leads were pretty killer, but if leads > songwriting/arranging, I'd be listening to my shrapnel cassettes and practicing my arpeggios instead of listening to Van Morrison stoned on my deck, sipping a cold glass of milk and posting on the interfag. So yeah... I missed the band with Anthony on vocals and that sucks. Beyond the Benton thing being a shitty gimmick, the dude's vocals are pretty boring. Hearing about the Long Island incident pretty much ruined any credibility that had left at that point. I honestly wanted to check out the set at Metalfest to give VR v3.o a fairly-bigoted shot (the reviews up to that point weren't necessarily flattering), but unfortunately I missed their set and the Monstrosity tantrum.


... and that's how I feel about Vital Remains

"Oh yeah, when Vital Remains played Los Angeles Metalfast, I sat down. They're fucking horrible, especially with Scott Willy doing vocals. I remember I sat down and read a Pit article on Decrepit Birth's new album, just about the same time Dechristianized started. I finished the article and I remember thinking "wow... this song is still fucking playing?"

For merch, the last shirt I got was about a month and a half ago, got it for $10, and even that was a waste because I don't wear it. I don't wear my band shirts all to often anymore, don't like feeling like a walking fucking advertisement."

Well you guys certainly like to talk shit on vital. But you do have to realize that their music is looked up to and well-respected in the metal community by many. Vital is a band that constantly tries to "up the bar" with every successive album, as Tony has been known to say in interviews, hence the changes in style.

So if you prefer the older shit, cool, keep listening to it. But why would you constantly bitch about them? Have you nothing better to do than post negativity? Vitals new shit has gotten them far more well known and better reviews. And if you're going to talk smack on lineup changes, have actual reasons to back it up. For example: because they are not technically up to par (which I'm sure is not true).

And, in my opinion, money issues shouldn't make a difference when it comes to liking a band's music. Do you guys even understand the music industry? If you did you would know how guarantees, contracts, and the business end of it works. Musicians constantly get ripped off by promoters so there comes a point when they have to stand up for themselves. Spend some time in the scene and you will see what I mean.

I also would like to add that by what many of you write, you come off as bitter/jealous, especially Autopsy 666. I'm assuming that since this is a new england based message board that you are from new england and maybe have some kind of resentment towards the band? I don't know man, thats just what I think.

"The only Vital Remains member who was there when I saw them was Tony Lazaro. It's unbelievable that I had to waste gas driving to Mokena, IL (same place Iced Earth played Powerfest) to see a $25 show where only one band member is present! There are plenty of great venues in Chicago that are way better than that dump. It was like watching Axl Rose parade around with the not-Slash-guitarist, and the not-Duff-bassist and not-Izzy-rhythm-guitraist, while he calls it "Guns N' Roses". Painful experience.

Band merch? Fuhgettaboutit. No wonder no one goes to quality metal shows anymore."

"I share most of the same gripe, especially when it comes to the live song selection. VR as totally abandoned anything pre-Dechristianize. Why, I have no idea. Dechristianize and Icons are just not good albums at all. The last time I saw them, I couldn't help shouting between songs, "play some old shit". And no, they don't have to go back to Let Us Pray. But at least give us a song or two from Into Cold Darkness, Forever Underground, and Dawn Of The Apocalypse. After all, doesn't it say something about a band that sticks to their roots. It just tells me that Glen doesn't want to put any time in to the band accept play the tunes he recorded. Basically he's a pay to play guy and could give a shit about the Vital Remains legacy. Let's face it, he's just there to boost sales and kill albums with his terrible vocals."

i grew up hanging out with Rick Corbett's sister, and i remember sitting around with them in their mothers house when i was maybe 17 (a little over a decade ago), and they told me he didn't want anything to do with VR, because he found out that they overdubbed some of his drum parts on "Into Cold Darkness"....

that rumour was confirmed by another member of the band (who i won't name, because i'm pretty sure he didn't want it getting around....i guess he didn't know that Ricky already knew) when i saw him a few years later (we were both working shitty jobs, accross the street from each other in Mansfield) and we shot the shit about his time in VR

anyway, my two cents on this whole situation
i saw VR live, opening for Deicide at Babyhead in Providence back in 1996 (i think....maybe 95), and it was one of the best death metal shows i've ever been to.

fast forward 4 or 5 years
VR at the living room with The Doosh Bags!!! (the first time i saw them with Thorn in the band, and the first time i ever heard The Doosh Bags....man their old drummer ruled!)
in my top five most fun/memorable shows list.

fast forward a few more years, i saw VR play with some shitty bands at some old warehouse in Olneyville....it was awful.

the band was tight, the sound was ok....but the setlist was 100 percent Dechristianize! what the fuck?!?!?!?!?!

i love Deicide, but Vital with Benton is just Generic, and it sells, only because Glen is on it.

i don't know about the price of their shirts, because i am big fat slob, and usually have to custom order t-shirts, so i don't own any vital remains shirts

but i am gonna defend Vital on certain points and disagree with some of you.
I think that Tony is a really nice dude, and about as metal as they come.... i can't remember a single death metal show in the new england area that i have been to, where he wasn't there supporting the local metal scene!! and i find it really odd to see so many of you bashing the guy

Suzuki, another really good dude, and an amazing musician, there are vital albums, where he plays every instrument on certain songs throughout the album and does most of the songwriting.

i will also disagree about Gruslin being their best vocalist. was he awesome, fuck yeah! but i don't see his vocals being any better than Joe or Thorn.

i disagree that Into Cold Darkness was their last good album.....it is my favorite.... but i definately think Forever Underground and Dawn of The Apocolypse (minus "The Night Has a Thousand Eyes"....what the fuck was Thorn thinking?) were excellent!

yes i agree some of their longer songs should be trimmed down because it's just a four minute song played twice....
but i still think every album before Dechristianize ruled.

even then Dechristianize wasn't bad, it just was nothing too original or memorable......

Icons of Evil....oh, Suzuki's drumming sounds faster, past that, i won't bitch if someone puts it on, but i'll never buy it.

anyway, i probably could rant on this subject all day, but it's pointless.....no offense to Dwyer or anyone else here.....but bands change all the time, and it's usually for the worse (especially when they have been around more than a decade), it's best to just accept it and enjoy their older material

I loved Forever Underground and Dawn of the Apocalypse. I was refering to Dechristianize and Icons of Evil being shit.

My name is Jim Fitzpatrick. I was Garth Preists' roommate and good friend. I think, as strange as this sounds, that i spent some time with you and scott at a dunkin donuts in the middle of the night on route 1 in norwood/walpole. Perhaps? i dunno, that was a long time ago. How is Scott, you still talk to him?


oh yeah, i remember, there was a bunch of us who (scott, shannon, james swords, garth, josh burton) used to hang out at dunkee's when there was nothin else to do.... just coffee, greasy food, metal talk and dirty jokes.

the name rings a bell, so i'm sure the dunkin' crowd is probably where i know you from


Orgymf hangs out with King Thunderstool.
