It just so happened that I was in Eureka at the time. So, I found myself re-visiting all of those riffs in the same goddamned town and in the same goddamned house where I recorded all the original guitars on that demo 33 years earlier. There was something about actually physically working out the mania of those riffs again at DAVE LOMBARDO’S request, in that environment — it just split my head open. It wasn’t long before the train of destiny had picked up too much speed for any of us to jump off.

The recording and playing were amateurish (save for Trey’s video-game-solos) but the schooled composition and spirit were solid. I always felt like this music held its own and deserved to be presented in a clearer and more defined package even if it meant being 33 years later.

Thank god I had Trevor and Trey to help decipher my rotten riffs into something intelligible!

Seriously, it’s an honor and a privilege to get to play with my favorite ‘Mr.’ band of all time.

That's what confused me. I'm assuming they weren't always in the band?

They were not. Neither of them lived anywhere near the Bay Area when the band started.
