"Yes!! It is true.... Kirk [Windstein; DOWN, CROWBAR] will be doing vocal duties alongside Ben in SUICIDE WAR. He will also be filling the bass duties, if and when SUICIDE WAR plans to do some shows.

"I know some people are expecting his signature CROWBAR-style vocals, but he has approached this project from a completely different angle.
