Just received this email from a friend of mine that I'd know was involved with the new lineup of the band:



I just can't do this anymore. Too much weirdness and I have a heavy heart about it all. I was excited to have this opportunity to play with a real band for once. One with such reputation and promise. I just don't know what's really going on with them. None of it makes any sense. It should have clued me in that they're having anyone even distantly involved sign legal releases not to talk about the band to outsiders. That included me, and they specifically don't want talk of the lineup. Theirs the weird thing of having the label reps at every single practice. Then the practices themselves which are so strange. They bring in all of these guest musicians for the song writing. All of the songs seem different every time we would play them. They would have killer writing and we'd play a song that was fifteen to twenty minutes long. And when I would ask if he could do some vocals so I could get the cues better I'd be told that there was no vocals. That it was an instrumental called "Fuck The Music Industry" or some weird shit and it seemed like the two of them were behind some fucked up inside joke. And the label lady would just sit there, laugh nervously and then make these promises about all these big tours. Monday's practice was the last straw and I would never have even stuck it out for that long had it been any other band. But they talk a good talk and you think things will turn around. Fuck that, these people are fucked and so is the band.

so?

FYI this is all BS. Nice try.

you just talked about the band to outsiders

They practice now in the same building as us. Loud band is loud. Wonder who left, all of them are nice guys.

I don't know them or anything, but this sounds like typical RTTP mudslinging.

shame if this is true. latest album sucked fierce but seems they got back on track now that they have a better lineup.

And...I'd rather fuck a meat grinder than listen to this bullshit

We have some slots available in the lineup. Anyone interested should email the band.

All 100% true. That was the exact email sent from my friend who drummer for them for the past six months.

band broke up so this is all BS

Look asshole you don't know shit from shinola. They got a big record contract and reformed. A friend of mine had been working on a new album with them for the last six months.

i knowz it and i aint gonna say

Trolls to be ignored. All up in this thread.

All BS. As stated ignore the trolls. We share a practice space with them and they were still practicing yesterday.

^ Plack Byramid?

Pyramidus Blackulus, if you want to get technical.

I laughed when I first read this but turns out it's all true. Lineup is Andy, the first bassist and there having trouble keeping a drummer. There's some chick managing them who is trying to book shows in W. Mass I got asked to do a show with them and got details because it seemed fishy. Still seems fishy.

log in or false report

Does anybody still give a shit either way?

TRUE REPORT:
BLACK PYRAMID SUCKS.

Black Pyramid was cool before the nonsense. Fond memories of some great gigs with 'em. RIP Black Pyramid.

No worries Ryan. You can always come to pray for death since you're the new rttp spokesperson/hype man here. Regarding bottle service in the VIP section, do you have a certain spirit you'd like to reserve?

perhaps a nice bottle of our vintage.

They just got a new drummer and he has a nicer kit. They all have really nice gear. And really loud.

wearing a black pyriamid shirt right now. mainly because its a cool shirt. beyond that... i believe this band is no longer relevent.

They were good. Unfortunately, the style of doom is beaten to a pulp now. But they were one of the best around thst did it.

I heard that the chick from Hekseri is their manager now? Is this true?
