CRUMBSUCKERS To Keep Fans Updated On Reunion Plans Via YAHOO! Music Group

February 20, 2006

A new Yahoo! Music Group has been launched to keep fans updated on the details surrounding the upcoming reunion concert by the legendary New York hardcore/metal act CRUMBSUCKERS to mark the 20th anniversary of their classic "Life of Dreams" release (as exlusively reported by BLABBERMOUTH.NET on Feb. 16). Check it out at this location.

As previously reported, original members Chris Notaro (vocals),Chuck Lenihan (guitar; GENITORTURERS),Gary Meskil (bass; PRO-PAIN) and Dan Richardson (drums; LIFE OF AGONY, PRO-PAIN, STEREOMUD) will be accompanied by an as-yet-undetermined second guitarist for a reunion concert in New York City this summer.

"Over the past week, I have been in close contact with my old bandmates via phone and e-mail," Meskil confirmed to BLABBERMOUTH.NET last Thursday. "I'm happy to say that all are optimistic and excited about a CRUMBSUCKERS reunion.

"At this point we are still in the early planning stages, but we intend to play a special 'Life Of Dreams' 20th anniversary reunion concert in NYC this summer (date and venue to be announced),which will certainly be a lot of fun."

CRUMBSUCKERS released two full-length albums through the Combat label — 1986's "Life of Dreams" and 1988's "Beast On My Back" — before finally calling it a day in the early Nineties. Several members embarked on a melodic metal venture called HEAVY RAIN, but that band was short-lived. The rhythm section of Meskil and Richardson went on to PRO-PAIN, while Chuck Lenihan ended up with GENITORTURERS.
