SMN reports: New England based death metallers
PORPHYRIA have posted the following update:
"Due to personal reasons, vocalist Tim
Murphy has decided to leave PORPHYRIA to focus on other aspects of his
life. While this was sprung on us at an unexpected time, we weren't all
that suprised since we're obviously aware of what he's doing aside from
the band. There were no fights, none of us are mad or anything negative
like that. We've had a lot of good times together in the band and he'll
still be one of our best friends. We obviously wish him luck with everything
that's going on and his future endevours. [see full story for more including

Vera Solo CD |
PR reports: JOEY VERA announces details of
his new solo album: My new solo project is finally leaving my prison cell.
I am calling the project A Chinese Firedrill and the record is titled "circles".
The record has 7 tracks and comes in at a total playing time of 46:00 -
I used to love old records (uh, actual records... as in LP, a big round
plastic thing you put on a turntable... no, I don't mean like a DJ thing...
oh, never mind) Anyway I used to like when records were only about 30 -35
minutes of total playing time. My attention span is too small these days
for a one hour record. Hopefully yours is too� As on my first solo record,
I play and sing just about everything with the exception of drums handled
by my buddy Greg Studgio�. Initially it will only be available through
my website and www.cdbaby.com[see full story for more]-
