Moderation, Bonds Keep SLAUGHTER Rockin' Across The Nation

July 3, 2008

Käri Knutson of the Winona Daily News reports: They may not be topping the charts anymore, but rock band SLAUGHTER has done something few bands from their era have accomplished. They've survived.

"A lot of our peers have fallen by the wayside," singer Mark Slaughter said. "SLAUGHTER is a rare case."

Slaughter credits an everything-in-moderation attitude and a strong bond between members for the band's survival.

"We just love making music. I can't see us doing anything else," Slaughter said.

Fans can see the band Saturday when SLAUGHTER plays a 10:30 p.m. show at Riverfest. The singer celebrates his 44th birthday Friday.

Slaughter grew up listening to everything from Aretha Franklin to LED ZEPPELIN.

"Since I was 11 years old, I knew what I was going to do," Slaughter said.
