Thomas Pridgen out

[www_anomicband_com]

Probably old news. Didn't see it on here. He has been replaced by Dave Elitch according to The Comatorium's front page. He played a show with them in Oslo on the 29th.

I really liked T-Pridg, too. Rumors are Thomas and Cedric had some kind of argument before a show in Raleigh and some fans saw Pridgen getting into a cab, leaving. The show was then cancelled. So, they got a new guy.

Re: Thomas Pridgen out

I think TMV has a line up of drummers that know all of their songs at all times. So they can just have a guy jump in and know their songs right away.

Re: Thomas Pridgen out

Thomas Pridgen was fantastic. I hope this new guy can do just as well. That's cool he likes Dredg.

Re: Thomas Pridgen out

Pridgen is awesome but I feel like he never quite worked that well for them. Jon and even the other guys that filled in gelled really well with the rest of the band where Pridgen a lot of the time kinda sounded like he was playing over them, not with them.

Haven't heard enough of his playing to make a judgement, but I'm pretty stoked on their recent setlists:

Fistful of dollars -> Son et lumiere-> Inertiatic
Cotopaxi
L'Via L'viaquez
Goliath
Since We've Been Wrong
Cicatriz
Halo Of Nembutals
MIRANDA
Teflon
Viscera Eyes
The Widow
Roulette Dares

Re: Thomas Pridgen out

It was better when I saw them this summer because it included Cygnus.

Re: Thomas Pridgen out

Cygnus live is the shiz!!!

I'd LOVE to see Cassandra Gemini sometime... How sick would that be?!?!?!

Re: Thomas Pridgen out

Re: Thomas Pridgen out

My sister (who's never heard the band before) saw them live yesterday, and her comments were
1 omg the drummer is awesome
2 i'd probably like it better with a real man singing

so... new drummer probably knows his shit

Re: Thomas Pridgen out

Re: Thomas Pridgen out

i catch alot of flack from people but i prefer a more falsetto singer. In this case its a serious high pitch. But i think it fits the music.
