STRAPPING YOUNG LAD MEMBERS WORKING ON SIDE PROJECT “ZIMMERS HOLE”

Strapping Young Lad mastermind Devin Townsend is busy producing bands like Soilwork and Darkest Hour, creating his own project Ziltoid The Omniscient, and grooming his perfectly coiffed skullet in the comforts of his own home; but what of the other members of Strapping Young Lad? Jed and Byron of SYL (Byron also plays in Fear Factory), are in the process of recording their debut on Century Media under the Zimmers Hole moniker, and from the sounds of some of their past work, Devin Townsend is not the only whacked out Canadian in SYL. Zimmers Hole have two prior releases, Bound By Fire and Legion of Flames, and 19 songs are currently being recorded for their Century Media debut. Hopefully the new material will live up to the glory of their past hit, “1000 Miles of Cock.”
