Moth Eater Post New Track, Literary News
As someone who enjoys watching bands grow, it’s been a pleasure to follow the progression of Long Island destroyers Moth Eater. I’m sure their first EP, due out this summer, is going to be a powerful showcase of metallic punishment, and in the meantime, they’ve posted a new track and announced that bassist Steve “Buckshot” Seabury has landed a book deal with Simon and Schuster, which, if you didn’t know, is a damn good book deal to land. Here’s the latest:
Moth Eater, the Beers Village, New York-based metal/doom band featuring guitarist John Conley of Scar Culture, Dave Ardolina and Steve ‘Buckshot’ Seabury of Dirty Rig, and vocalist John Alaia, have just posted a 
new track titled “Aftermath” on their MySpace page. The track features world renowned Hurdy Gurdy player Geoff Kooris who adds to the bands already intense sound. The band will be releasing an EP this coming summer titled Thunder Gods of Monster Island.

The song “Aftermath” will also be featured on a new video game titled Shredmaster which will be released later this year.
While the band have been working in the studio, Buckshot just finalized a book deal with Simon & Schuster. “I have been working on this book for almost five years now and I am super excited to finally be putting it out on such a great publishing company,” states Buckshot. His first book will be released on November 30, 2010.
Upcoming Shows:

Simon & Schuster. Thats a pretty big deal. I wonder what the book will be about? Is it a book on Doom Metal? That would rule.
This track Aftermath is wicked. Heavy as balls and the Hurdy Gurdy is evil. Its good to hear a band like this doing something a little different from the norm.
All Hail Moth Eater!
Buckshot is the king. Congrats brother. Looking forward to the book and the new CD.
I love the new track and the Gurdy is wicked as wicked comes.
Keep it up.
Beers Up!
Is this for the “Mosh Potatoes” cookbook?

Eh… methinks that should read as “Thunder GODS of Monster Island”… not Gids… Rock on!
Really? That’s kind of a bummer. I liked Gids. It had a hint of an accent to it that I thought was really cool. Tunder Gids o’ Monsta Eyelind. Anyway, change made, apologies and so forth.
These guys are out of control. I just heard of these guys. I watched their Youtube channel, listened to their music and they have a book deal with Simon & Schuster.
This is out of control. This band is out of control. I love it. I wish these guys all the best of luck and I hope they fuck everything up. How many bands get a book deal? Not many.
Buckshot. Good luck and thanks for putting out great music. As they say……
ALL HAIL MOTH EATER!!!
