STATIC-X To Release 'Cannibal Killers Live' DVD In October
July 29, 2008California metallers STATIC-X will release their first-ever concert DVD, "Cannibal Killers Live", on October 7. The disc was shot with six cameras on June 2, 2007 at the Big Easy in Spokane, Washington and "it's awesome," frontman Wayne Static stated during a July 25 interview on the "Uncensored Net Noise" show. "I can't even explain how great this thing looks and sounds."
Wayne's entire appearance on "Uncensored Net Noise" is available for streaming and/or download at this location.
Static last year told Australia's Time Off magazine that fans of the band have responded very positively to the direction of "Cannibal", the group's fifth and undoubtedly heaviest record to date.
"It's been great, it's been awesome," he said. "I think our fans really love it and appreciate the fact it's heavier and we've had a great response.
"I wanted to make the heaviest record that we've ever made and still be very STATIC-X, but I wanted to definitely make the most metal record we've ever made as well.”
In order to make the record he wanted, Static decided to take on the main production duties himself, though decided to enlist some help from engineer John Travis.
'I wanted to be the main producer this time around, because I really knew exactly what I wanted to do," he said. 'I really wanted to strip things down and make the record raw and heavy sounding so that was why I insisted on being the lead producer.
"I chose John Travis to work with me because he's an awesome engineer and he's also a musician and has great ideas and mostly is just a really fun guy to hang out with and he drinks a lot and tells great jokes."
