  • Here's a little but precious moment for you between Gene Hoglan and Tomas Haake from the Sean Reinert Tribute shooting right before we started.
    Hence Gene's mic sounds pretty crappy but nevertheless a nice little thing.
    (deleted scene from "Sean Reinert Tribute", originally aired on the 24th January 2021)

      That's how I knew that Dino Cazares is a shitty person, cause Gene has been playing with so many bands and never had any problems. He's able to fit in and do his work perfectly. So when they basically kicked him out from FF, that's when I realised that Dino is not just a "complicated person".

He always seems cool in interviews, but yeah sounds like working with him is the issue. It’s like Taylor Swift running through boyfriends then boo-hooing in her music.

    It's like widely acknowledged that Mesguggah created a whole new genre of music/metal, and Haake is right in the center of that. And Hoglan is like obviously a huge influence, absolute legend, playing tech double pedal with the boots and old pedals just because fuck you.

      Dont forget the weights!! Hoglan is an goddamn animal, and packin alot of weight himself in his former days which also adds to the insaness.

Now kids can go on UA-cam or the like and watch live footage of you guys and study the techniques we all had to just figure out ourself, so of course a 7 year old kid has learned how to play really well at such a young age!
