June 25, 2007 Holy shit it's been a crazy summer. 2007 is revving up to be pretty sick ass. Right now we're recording a CD and finishing up playing as we will be starting a whole new set, new tunes, new everything. So our focus right now is on getting the recording done. Of course, playing LIVE is always a must. Other than that, what else can we say? Drink lots of beer and be safe!! Feb 19, 2007 And yet another long ass time since we've updated this page. The reason you ask? Well, nothing really. Just playing allot, recording, working, blaugh, blaugh. What can we say? We are busy Mother F'rs Big show coming to the Kennel Club. We're in it, so of course it's big. :-) Other than that, drink lots of beer and METAL!!!
November 5, 2006 Hey all. KICK ASS SHOW last night. We'd like to thank Dogbyte, Gossomer Fate & Panik for joining us on the bill and putting on a KICK ASS SHOW. New show coming up on Jan 13th. Stay tuned!!!
Oct 21, 2006 OK, OK, OK............We get like 10 emails a week " When you guys playing again" or " DUDE, WTF....Are you ever gonna play again?" The answer to all of your emails is YES. We are playing again and we're playing at The Road House on Nov 4th. So all you Metal Heads better show up. HAHHAHHAHA We really do appreciate all the support from our fans. This is the fisrt of many shows to come. But more importantly, this is the very first show with our new Guitarist Andy Gomez. Dude is solid, tasty ass solo's and he where's funky ass shoes. AHHAHAH Come one Come all. See you guys on the 4th!!!
Sept 11, 2006 Well, we picked a hell of a date to announce our new Guitar player. Today is the 5th year since 911 in NYC. Our hearts and prayers go out to everyone involved in that terrible act of violence. On a good note, today is the day we announce Andy Gomez as the new Soul D AXE MAN!! And that he is!!! A few months ago our long time Guitarist and dear friend Greg Fox had decided to leave the Soul Distortion project. Although an explanation to why he left is still floating around, we wish him the best of luck with his new ventures. SOOOOOOOOOOOOO That brings up this Andy Gomez guy. Who on earth can fill such BIG shoes not only as a player but as a friend, a brother and fellow shit disturber??? Wait til you guys here this dude play. Andy brings a great deal of talent and song writing to the Soul D table. He has added that flavor enhancer to Soul D's writing and playing. Andy has found his home here with the Soul D guys. We couldn't be happier or more lucky to find Andy. We welcome him and can't wait for all of our fans to hear and see him live. We have a show coming up in Oct with the legendary Metallica Tribute band WHIPLASH and several other shows as well. So keep checking back. Other than that have a METAL day!!! SOUL D
July 29th Hey everyone. Wow, been a while since the update. We've had some typical band drama over the last 2 months so please accept our apologies while we got that straightened out. So what the hell we've been doing? Great question. All kinds of shit, too much to list, but, the short version is a new, enhanced sound to our already kick ass show. Lots of new music and we finally brought back the FORUMS for all of you to stop by and say hi. We took down our other forums based solely on the instability of it, but we are now using Vbulletin and it is much more stable and robust. Go check'm out. Got a couple of MAJOR announcements coming up in the next 3 weeks. I don't want to say anything yet, just in case they fall through, but, if we have our way, these will be HUUUUGE. Keep check'n back!!
May 4th, 2006 What up Soul D Fans!!!! We would like to say thanks to everyone who supported us over the past 6 months. Coming out to our shows, listening to us on the radio and anything else we missed. We really do appreciate it. We will be taking a 3 month break from gig'n to write more music. We're currently in the studio preparing for the summer concert tour. We fully plan on headlining more shows this summer and you can expect to see us out at the Sleeptrain Amphitheater. That special Announcement is coming soon. We would also like to thank all the clubs in Sacramento for allowing us to shred there place. The Sacramento Music Scene is ALIVE & STRONG and without them we'd all be playing..........well, who knows where we'd be playing, point is we just wanted to say thanks. And lastly, we want to thank Mark Gilmore at 98 Rock for all of his support. Mark is a staple in the local music scene. Always promoting and supporting local music. So for that we say THANKS MARK!! And thanks for finally coming to our show dude!! If you would like a free demo mailed to you, please email dwdrum@gmail.com and request one.

_______________________________________________________________________________________ July 05, 2005 Hope everyone had a safe fourth of July weekend. I know the boys had a blast. We had the first annual Soul Distortion family BBQ on Saturday. It was a complete success. Beer, BBQ, Pool....Man, life is good! I don't know about you guys, but this weekend not only had it's share of good times, but it's also had it's share of good reviews on Garageband.com The second round of reviews has been tougher than the first. We shot all the way back up to #103 and at the beginning of the week and have since been leveled off at #67 this morning. We also have some GREAT news. People are really liking Peyote. So much so that it earned
If you guys are interested in having a personalized 2 song DEMO of Peyote and Solitary mailed to you, just shoot me an email and I'll have one sent out right away. METAL! DWdrums ( aka: Mike Murray ) _______________________________________________________________________________________ June 29, 2005 We recently submitted "Peyote" to Garageband.com and it's no surprise it is doing extremely well. The song started out at around #700 out of 717 in the "HARDROCK" section....In less than a week and what is called 'Round 1", Peyote has climbed all the way to #79 and picking up Reviews Pick Award for " Best Mood in Hardrock " along the way. Currently the song is in "Round 2" and the guys are very interested to see how far up the charts it will go. Garageband.com is a community predominantly made up of musicians, so, song reviews are pretty critical and "knit-picky". Needless to say, so matter where it ends up, we're glad so many people are digg'n it. If you wanna check out some of the reviews, just click on the Garageband Logo below. L8!
