WEDNESDAY 13 Says There Are No Plans For MURDERDOLLS Reunion
February 1, 2017Horror-punk stalwart Wednesday 13 says that a MURDERDOLLS reunion could happen at some point in the future after he is done touring in support of his upcoming solo album.
In a recent interview with CrypticRock.com, Wednesday 13's MURDERDOLLS bandmate, former SLIPKNOT drummer Joey Jordison, stated about the current status of the project: "I cannot say anything bad about that band and what we accomplished with the MURDERDOLLS. Those tours we did are really awe-inspiring when you look in hindsight of what we accomplished in a short amount of time and the two records we did. I could not be more proud and happy of what we accomplished in that time. Everyone that was in that band, the couple of different personnels we employed, the MURDERDOLLS were killer. Like I said before, I don't know if I would do another record, but I won't rule it out."
Jordison — who played guitar for MURDERDOLLS — added that the band enabled him to express himself musically in a way that wasn't possible with SLIPKNOT.
"That is the thing, when we did 'Beyond The Valley Of The Murderdolls' [2002], I had already done four records with SLIPKNOT, two that were on the label and released," he said. "When we did the first MURDERDOLLS record, I have this punk rock and pop side of me that I don't really get to get out in other areas in my life. When we did that band, it was just pretty much to express fun, have a great time, and kind of throw a monkeywrench into what was going on in rock and metal at the time, and it worked. I would love to do another record. Like I said, I won't rule it out."
After Joey's latest comments were originally published, Wednesday 13 took to his Facebook page to write: "I'm happy to see Joey has said something positive about MURDERDOLLS and that is something to look forward to in the future. But the future is when that would happen, if it even does happen. We have not spoken, nor do we have any plans at the moment."
He continued: "What is annoying are these web sites that take one question from an interview and make it into a big story that is misleading to fans. I have a brand new album coming out this spring and full year of touring ahead. There is no way this would or could happen in 2017."
MURDERDOLLS issued its sophomore album, "Women And Children Last", in August 2010 via Roadrunner Records. The CD, which was recorded at a studio in Hollywood Hills, California with producer Chris "Zeuss" Harris (HATEBREED, SHADOWS FALL, 3 INCHES OF BLOOD),sold 8,600 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 43 on The Billboard 200 chart.
