-* SOAE *-
 12/17/92

(say: ZOH-EE).. "The blood of the innocent on the hands of the guilty"

As you have noticed I have shortened the name of the electronic outreach
of Screams of Abel simply because it's too long to say and SOAE (to become
"Soae" in January) being the simple abbreviation for Screams of Abel
Electronic - you get the idea, so read.

This will (I hope it works tonight) be available on WWIVNet posted on The
Church BBS (703) 978-4611 24 hrs 8/N/1 ANSI

This will be the last SOAE until after the New Year since the labs will be
closed quite regularly until January 19.. all responses may be posted to
me via email, however, I will probably not read anything else after Dec.
22.. I can be reached at 198-7313@wwiv.cojones.com between Dec. 23-Jan. 19
or by snail mail at: P.O. Box 2861, Springfield, VA  22152-2861...

So have an awesome Christmas! Or Else!

** The News **

Overdrive is back in the news again after several months hiatus! They have
a new bassist and drummer and are writing new material.  They will also be
playing in Florida in the end of January and congrats to Overdrive singer
Doug Levy on his upcoming marriage to Monica (ex-model) on Valentine's
Day.. also look for a new Overdrive sound along the lines of Fate's
Warning and early Crimson Glory and are looking for another guitarist..

Congrats to NC metal band Oracle's vocalist Shawn Pelata on his getting
married recently.. 

Shade, guitarist of Ataraxia, is trying to reform his old band with new
members.. his former drummer Kelvin Shares, left to join the fellow Aussie
death band Discarnated...

Atlanta death metal band Gothic Outcast has been dropped by A.R.T. Records
but GO is still GOing on (I had to do that!)... Joe Bates, vocalist,
informed me that they are getting a 16-year old drummer to join their
3-piece onslaught.. also in A.R.T. news, Royal Anguish vocalist Matt
Knowles is the new A.R.T. publicist and also announced that they are
re-releasing their new demo, "Shocked To Pieces", in early '93 remixed..

Also look for new brutal death demos by Godhead, Dry Bones and Hear O
Israel in early '93...

Randy Rose has a new solo release coming out in January, "Healing".. this
is the Mad at the World drummer's second solo release since "Sacrificium"
came out in August 1991... this release will be on Intense Records..

** Cheap Ad ** For you King's X fanatics, you can satisfy yourself or
someone you love this Christmas by sending them a copy of Cephas Magazine
#4 (August 1990) with King's X on the cover and an interview done by 
Randy Rocker.. it's a total novelty for the King's X fans! Write for more
info to: Screams of Abel Magazine, P.O. Box 2861, Springfield, VA 
22152-2861.  Plenty of copies are going fast so reserve one now!

Also don't forget, Oh Yee R.M.C. readers, to vote in the Heavy Metal Poll
posted by tapio@pic.finet.fi (I think that's right) on
alt.rock-n-roll.metal... tell them the good stuff that's out in 1992 like
Tourniquet, "Pathogenic Ocular Dissonance" (BRILLIANT ALBUM!!!)

MD hard rockers Everlasting Revelation will be having a FREE open jam
session at Cornerstone A.O.G. Church in Bowie MD on Fri Dec. 18 at 7pm..
The Elect will be having their "Happy Birthday Jesus" party on Sat Dec. 26
NOT Fri Dec 18 as earlier reported.. it will be at the home of The Elect
guitarist Anne Majors in Bowie MD.. and the lineup for New Year's Eve is
(confirmed): Sabaoth, MIA, Recluse Chant and Crown of Thorns, and it will
be at the Colonial Theater on Main Street in Fredericksburg.. so don't
stay home unless you're truly boring..

Speaking of Sabaoth, the Virginia 5-piece neoclassical death band (I kid
you not) has a new bassist: Scott Eaton, replacing their old bassist who's
going to be a missionary.. South Dakota power metallers Redemption is
reforming now that guitarist Scott Hunstad is returning home from school
until January.. Puerto Rican speed metallers Deathless will be coming out
with a new demo in early '93.. Texas thrashers Red Ink will be working on
a new demo in early '93 as soon as vocalist Ash Henson returns from
school.. The Hardrock Cascade Cafe in Almelo, The Netherlands, will be
booking more bands in '93, and have had Seventh Angel, Decision-D,
Sculpture and many other bands appear.. also The British wonders (Seventh
Angel) will be returning to the Hardrock Cascade on New Year's Eve for a
small concert, and have changed their style from techno-doom to
death/thrash.. secular band Thanatos has broken up and some of the members
are forming a Christian band called Charizimous..

And finally, Kansas City funky cool medina - metal (I made that up) group
Hot Pink Turtle, now signed to R.E.X., will be going into the studio for
their debut album in February.. look for a May/June release.., also look
for live studio releases by Deliverance and Tourniquet, the new album by
Die Happy, "Volume II", and the debut album by Godsent Humans, "Liberty or
Death", in January/February.. also look for the debut issue of Screams of
Abel Magazine with interviews of: Living Sacrifice, Sardonyx, Discarnated,
Sabaoth, Deathless, Final Judgement and Sculpture..
