BEATALLICA: Video Interview, Live Footage Posted Online

May 20, 2007

Milwaukee-based BEATALLICA, a satirical mashup act whose hilarious schtick marries the songwriting prowess of THE BEATLES to the deep-throated rock growl of METALLICA, has uploaded an EPK (Electronic Press Kit) featuring an interview with the band and live footage. Watch it at this location (Quicktime required).

BEATALLICA's first official CD, "Sgt. Hetfield's Motorbreath Pub Band", is scheduled for release on July 10 via Oglio Records. Comprised of members Jaymz Lennfield (vocals, guitar),Grg Hammettson (guitar),Kliff McBurtney (bass),and Ringo Larz (drums),BEATALLICA has been converting naysayers into believers for years by this point — having made fans throughout the world, including such renowned headbangers as DREAM THEATER's Mike Portnoy and ANTHRAX's Scott Ian.

BEATALLICA in 2005 received help from METALLICA drummer Lars Ulrich in their dispute with the Sony Corporation over BEATALLICA's "unlawful use" of the group's compositions "without authorization or license." The case has since been resolved, with BEATALLICA being allowed once again to operate their web site, Beatallica.org, and continue performing their patented blend of BEATLES tunes in a METALLICA style.
