NON-FICTION • In The Know • LP

GoldenCore Records
Reissue, black vinyl 

During a European tour by Hades, it became apparent that the band would soon break up. Guitarist Dan Lorenzo formed Non-Fiction with Dan Nastasi (Mucky Pup, Dog Eat Dog), who subsequently recorded an EP. However, the line-up carousel was to turn again and Hades and Watchtower singer Alan Tecchio and bassist Kevin Bolembach (later Seven Witches, Jack Frost, among others) came on board.

At the time, many fans of Hades and Watchtower must have been surprised by the doom metal direction, while fans of this style remained ignorant, even without the Internet at the time. It is astonishing that certain trademarks of HADES can still be found in the music of Non-Fiction (see also the 1995 reunion album by Hades).
