Former METALLICA Bassist Launches HEARD OF ELEMENTS Project

June 9, 2005

Former METALLICA and current VOIVOD bassist Jason Newsted recently teamed up with Roy Rogers (slide/blues guitar master) and Carl Coletti (formerly with Ottmar Liebert) to create a new project called HEARD OF ELEMENTS. They wrote and recorded four brand new songs, which they are sharing first with all of their fans. Check it out at this location. A photo of the band can be found here.

VOIVOD recently completed the songwriting for their follow-up to 2003's "Voivod", tentatively due before the end of the year. Drummer Away (a.k.a. Michel Langevin) has described the new material as containing "a bit of an eerie vibe, with experimental vocals by Snake, spiralling solos by Piggy and heaviness courtesy of Jasonic!"
