ROCK CITY MORGUE Part Ways With Guitarist

May 13, 2004

ROCK CITY MORGUE, the New Orleans, Louisiana-based band featuring former WHITE ZOMBIE bassist Sean Yseult, ex-MAN SCOUTS OF AMERICA frontman Rik Slave, and ex-THE B MOVIE RATS drummer Andy Baker, have posted the following message on their official web site:

"The end of last month brought the MORGUE's record release party, which was a huge success. The band played their new material to a packed One Eyed Jacks and a rabid crowd, and openers IN IT FOR THE HONEY played a fierce set reminiscent of the STOOGES, warming up the crowd nicely.

"The new E.P. is available only through Antidote Records, and in limited amounts — apparently the 10" vinyl sold out immediately, and there is no certain word of another pressing at this time. The good news is that the MORGUE is currently negotiating with labels to release both E.P.s in one package, in the U.S. and overseas, so the records will be easy to find in your local record store, finally! In the meantime, stay tuned for MORGUE sightings this summer. In addition, the band has just been informed of [guitarist] Rhoades D'Ablo's departure from the band — may his MORGUE Memories Rest In Peace. The band wishes him the best of luck in his future twisted rock and roll ventures."
