Cannibal Corpse drummer Paul Mazurkiewicz has been announced as the special guest judge for round 5 of Heavy MTL‘s battle of the bands where the cities heaviest and loudest bands take to the stage for a chance to win one of two prized spots on the Heavy MTL 2012 lineup at Parc Jean-Drapeau from August 11 to 12.

About Cannibal Corpse (source: cannibalcorpse.net)

Returning with the ceaselessly hostile Torture, Cannibal Corpse prove that when it comes to combining unrestrained maliciousness, involving song writing and technical precision they still have no equal, once again fortifying their position at the forefront of death metal. The twelfth full-length of their inspiring twenty-four year career, the Floridian quintet have never sounded so vital, the album building upon the wealth of powerful, dark, and memorable songs comprising 2006’s Kill and 2009’s Evisceration Plague and pointedly upping the ante at every turn. While this marks the latest progression in the band’s sound, Torture also witnesses a return to what drummer Paul Mazurkiewicz accurately terms “the frenzied attack of Butchered At Birth (1991) or Tomb Of The Mutilated (1992)”, infusing the band’s advanced musicianship with the raw savagery that haunted their earlier releases, and in the process conceiving the definitive Cannibal Corpse record.

From the moment the aptly titled “Demented Aggression” explodes to life in a storm of blistering riffs and turbulent drums it is unequivocally apparent that the band are at their ruthless best, and everything that follows backs this up vehemently. From the monstrous chugging of “Sarcophagic Frenzy” to the deeply

Numerous books have been written about Black Sabbath and Dio with the authors always mentioning his unique powerful drumming style and has become a part of rock drumming history!

Three world tours followed as well as a CD titled “The Devil You Know” the first studio album since 1991’s “Dehumanizer”. The band also released “Heaven And Hell Live in Europe” DVD in 2010 which was the last video recording of the late Ronnie James Dio at the Wacken Festival in Germany.

This is a Rock Drumming Show featuring music from the history of bands the Appice’s have played with, as well as drum solos, comedy and a massive drum battle finale that tears it up!! 2012 is set for Vinny’s new heavy band Kill Devil Hill featuring mega bassist Rex Brown (Pantera/Down) vocalist Dewey Bragg and guitarist Mark Zavon. The band just finished a warm up tour and is set to release their first CD on SPV Records in March 2012 with touring to follow. It’s a cross between Sabbath, Alice In Chains and some Zep!. Vinny is working on a release in 2012 of a new rock drum instruction book and instructional video. Stay tuned for more news about this and the cover of Modern Drummer magazine.

About: Glen Drover is best known as the former lead guitarist in Megadeth and backup to Andy Larocque in King Diamond, as well as his own band Eidolon, along with his brother Shawn Drover.

Glen Drover began playing guitar as a child, and was joined at age 10 by his brother Shawn on drums. Influenced by Tony MacAlpine, Al Di Meola, Randy Rhoads, Greg Howe, Michael Romeo, George Lynch, Warren DeMartini and David Gilmour, the Drover brothers formed the thrash/power metal band Eidolon in 1996, releasing seven albums to date. Glen is currently touring with Testament in place of Alex Skolnick and teaching guitar lessons at Long and McQuade.

In 1998, Drover joined King Diamond, and appeared on the House of God album.

In October 2004, Drover joined thrash metal band Megadeth, bringing along his brother Shawn. Following an extensive world tour, Drover contributed to Megadeth’s 2007 release, United Abominations as the lead guitarist and with co-writing credits for one song. While busy recording that album, Drover also cut a guest guitar solo for the track “Emotional Coma” (featured on the album Emotional Coma) by Swedish metal group Lion’s Share. Drover recorded his solo at home in Canada, and sent the music file to the band.

In January 2008 Glen Drover left Megadeth to focus on family life; the constant touring was starting to have a negative effect on him. His last show with Megadeth was on November 18, 2007 in Brisbane, Australia. Commenting on leaving the band, Drover said “I am aware of the rumors that I left Megadeth to focus on family life and my family life has always been my priority. In the end, I was unhappy with the situation, which magnified me wanting to spend more time with my family and realizing that it’s time for me to move on to the next chapter in my musical career, I have a lot of great memories and met a ton of great people along the way, both fans and people in the industry.”

On the 22 Oct 2008 Testament announced that they had recruited guitarist Glen Drover to fill in on their Mexican tour dates with Judas Priest, Due to Alex Skolnick’s prior commitment to the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Also in March 2010, during the time of him trying to finally finish his album, Glen Drover was playing with Testament on the Megadeth, Testament, Exodus tour In the US and Canada, due to Alex Skolnick being away again.
