TARRAT feat. Sophia Ramos
Posted by Webmastor
 
"Years before officially joining Voivod, Jasonic jammed with Away and Piggy at The Chophouse under the project name TARRAT. In 1998, the three Voivod instrumentalists regrouped at The Chophouse for five days of improvisational metal. These sessions produced tons of great sounds, including the initial structure of the song "M-Body" (that can be found on the Voivod LP Phobos) as well as this recording entitled "One Reason," featuring the vocal stylings of Sophia Ramos. Taped a few months after TARRAT had laid down their music tracks, her vocals added a distinctive and unexpected touch of class to the original composition." -- Jason

A full serving of this track will be released very soon. Stay tuned...

GODSWALLOP feat. Sophia Ramos
Posted by Webmastor
 
"For the past few weeks, we've been sharing with all of you our first selection of very fresh Rough Cuts. It's now time to mix things up with some aged Prime Cuts...as promised. To give you a taste of what's to come, here's an appetizer that reveals the variety of flavors stashed away in The Chophouse cold storage." -- Jason

The track "...And Another Thing" was originally recorded in 1996. The line-up for this track includes Jason on Bass, Andreas Kisser on Guitar and Carl Coletti on Drums, collectively known as Godswallop. It features the voice of Sophia Ramos who went on to become The Chophouse's secret weapon and can be heard on many of the projects, including the first offering from EchoBrain.

A full serving of this track will be released very soon. Stay tuned...

"These Chophouse Rough Cuts are fragments of weekly, improvisational jams to which we assign working titles upon our first playback. You're hearing the music exactly as it was recorded at The Chophouse. No script...no cheating...no doctoring... no overdubs...just noise for the love of noise! We look forward to sharing our studio madness with all of our friends and fans of The Chophouse." -- Jason

THE SNATCH RACKET
Posted by Webmastor
 
"A two-piece spawn of Papa Wheelie. Swiiglor on the drum kit plus Jaylor playing bass equals The Snatch Racket. Noisy and beautiful...anything can happen...a must listen. Still in its earliest stages, this is just a sampling of what's to come." -- Jason

Recorded at The Chophouse in September 2003:

"The Buzz" by The Snatch Racket (RealAudio)

THE GOOD DEVILS
Posted by Webmastor
 
"Yet another project spawned by the Wheelie. A power trio comprising Jaylor on guitar and vox, Joefus on bass and a young Chophouse fiend/friend Josh Wisenor on drums. The Devil mixes multiple musical influences to forge a hellish sound." -- Jason

Recorded at The Chophouse in November 2003:

"Me and You and You" by The Good Devils (RealAudio)
"Afterburn" by The Good Devils (RealAudio)

PAPA WHEELIE
Posted by Webmastor
 
"The noisiest metal on two wheels is alive and well. Eight years on the trail and counting, session after session, ride after ride, stronger every time. The wheels continue to roll one way...uphill...faster. Here's a taste of where the Wheelie has been treading most recently." -- Jason

Recorded at The Chophouse in October 2003:

"Body Count" by Papa Wheelie (RealAudio)
"Roller" by Papa Wheelie (RealAudio)
"Fastback (Instrumental)" by Papa Wheelie (RealAudio)
