FLOTSAM AND JETSAM Singer To Guest On New THE ALIEN BLAKK Album

September 18, 2008

Vocalist Eric A.K. of FLOTSAM AND JETSAM has recorded guest vocals on three songs from THE ALIEN BLAKK, the band led by guitarist/producer Joshua Craig. The tracks "Hate Me" and "Will I?" will appear on THE ALIEN BLAKK's forthcoming sophomore album while the BLACK SABBATH cover "Snowblind" will be included on the re-release of THE ALIEN BLAKK's "Modes Of Alienation" LP.

Comments Craig: "Eric came in and fully dominated on the mic. His ears are so pitch perfect he can probably hear a snake piss from across the dessert and tell you the key! He did an amazing job on all songs. We are sharing vocal duties on the music he put down and I am truly grateful for his involvement. A very humble and great person. What he did on 'Snowblind' will make all metal fans proud and where he includes his assist on the original music will be very unexpected and full of accepted enthusiasm."

The drums on the new THE ALIEN BLAKK CD were tracked by Kevin Talley (DAATH, ex-CHIMAIRA, THE RED CHORD) while the bass was handled by David Ellefson (MEGADETH, F5).
