Spiders & Snakes
Year Of The Snake
Entitled "Year Of The Snake", the CD features guest appearances by Billy Sherwood (YES, CIRCA), Angelo Moore (FISHBONE), Rik Fox (W.A.S.P., STEELER), Ryo Okumoto (PHIL COLLINS, ARETHA FRANKLIN, SPOCK'S BEARD) and Betsy Weiss (BITCH), among others. "Year Of The Snake" is the first SPIDERS & SNAKES studio album release since 2008's "Melodrama" on the Corporate Punishment label (distributed by E1 Entertainment) and features all four band members sharing lead vocal and song-writing duties. The multiple lead vocalists lends the disc a depth that separates it stylistically from previous efforts, which mainly featured SPIDERS & SNAKES co-founder Lizzie Grey on lead vocals. The new album was recorded in the Chinese calendar "Year Of The Snake" (2013-2014) at Steady Studios in Burbank, California with engineer Gavin Ross at the helm - just short of the band's upcoming 25th anniversary.
