WORST F*CKING NEWS EVER OF THE DAY: KAT KATZ SPLITS WITH SALOME
Well THIS FUCKING SUCKS THE BIG ONE.
Kat Katz, who has to be one of the best goddamn motherfucking vocalists working in metal today, has posted the following message on her Facebook page:
The doom band just released a new album, Terminal, last fall — in fact, it made my seventh favorite album of 2010. The thing is practically a masterpiece, and in just a few years, Salome have cemented their reputation as one of THE leaders of the modern doom scene and one of THE great young bands to go check out live. And a lot of that has had to do with Katz; not only are her vocals just so fucking evil, but her presence is larger-than-life (even though her actual physical stature suggests that she could represent the Lollipop Guild). With all due respect to the other incredibly talented members of Salome, Aaron Deal and Rob Moore, they now have some HUGE fucking shoes to fill, and, honestly, I dunno if they can do it. There just aren’t that many front people out there as good as Katz.
As for Katz herself, well, I hope she pops up in another band or bands quickly. I love love love Agoraphobic Nosebleed, but they never play live, and don’t release albums fast enough, for me to feel like I’m getting the constant Katz fix to which I now find myself addicted. Someone awesome please come and scoop this woman up ASAP.
