METALLICA Are To Blame For Delaying Reunion Of BOB ROCK's THE PAYOLAS

July 14, 2003

Andrew Matte of Toronto's Town Crier reports that fans of THE PAYOLAS can blame METALLICA for delaying the secretly-planned reunion of the Juno Award-winning Canadian band.

Paul Hyde told the Town Crier he and fellow PAYOLABob Rock, now better known as a record producer, plan to perform together this fall and work over the next year on songs for a new PAYOLAS record.

"We haven't really done any of the new stuff since back then, so we'll do mostly old stuff and a couple of new things," Hyde said of plans for a mini-tour this fall.

"But the plan is to do a little writing every three or four months for a new album."

Hyde said work on THE PAYOLAS would have happened sooner had it not been for the longer-than-expected record of "St. Anger", the new METALLICA album that Rock produced and performed on. Read more.
