Some VERB ASS news since it's relevant:
"January 5th 2008: During December 18th through December 20th, 2007, we got all of the material for the Volume Two CD (which includes the Trial LP, the "Tiny Giants" 7", and the On and Exit EPs) together for remastering and a little remixing (more on that in a moment). In attendance were Doug Ernest (drums), Dylan Roy (bass) and Christopher Jones (vox). Pete Chramiec (guitar) was out in Olympia, WA and couldn't make it, but we kept him abreast of everything as we were doing it.
We did the work at Brikhaus Studios here in Newport, with our main man Scott Rancourt engineering. Here's how it went:

We had the original final mixes of the songs from Trial, so we just transferred those from the tapes. The On and Exit EPs we took from the last CD that came out on Groove. That went quickly, and all of the songs sound just like the original releases.

However, we didn't have the original final mixes for the songs "More Than Music" and "Tiny Giants" (from the 7"), though we did have the 24-track tapes. For "More Than Music" we pretty much stuck to the original sound (the song was recorded during the Trial sessions), and the remix isn't that much different from what came out on the single.
"Tiny Giants" was trickier. Intentionally or not (and to tell the truth, we can't remember which one it was) the song was definitely speeded up during the mastering, so the final mix on the 7" sounds a lot faster than it was originally recorded.
Going back to the tapes, we kept the tempo as we really played it, and restored some nice additional guitar tracks that Pete did which didn't make it into the final mix.
The result is that the song seems a bit slower (and to be honest, perhaps a little sluggish), but we also think it's more "honest": for better or worse, that's how the song actually came out when we laid it down. But the vocals sound better now and the additional guitar rounds out the tune as well. Frankly, none of us were ever happy with the final result when we committed "Tiny Giants" to tape, but with this mix we think you really get a better idea of what we were doing.

Finally, we sequenced all the tracks in chronological order, and Scott is putting the final touches on everything right now.
All of us think the remastering sounds great, and we're really looking forward to having everyone hear this stuff again when the Volume Two CD comes out later this year.
Extra special thanks to Scott, who really busted his butt to make this whole thing happen...

are these guys on your label dwy?
[Jan 25,2009 7:11pm - AUTOPSY_666 ""]
Nope, conflict of interest.
I'm the vocalist, lyricist, logo artist and manager.
[Jan 25,2009 7:16pm - ouchdrummer ""]
oh. I get it. I don't think i've heard the term "logo artist" although i obviously understand why there would be such a term, as logo creation involves some work.
[Jan 25,2009 7:27pm - AUTOPSY_666 ""]
And i can't draw.
[Jan 25,2009 8:00pm - dreadkill ""]
what's wrong with having your own band on your own label?
[Jan 25,2009 8:04pm - AUTOPSY_666 ""]
Way different style.
We'd rather be on like Stillborn (or Ozzfest, ha) or Deathwish.
[Jan 25,2009 8:20pm - ouchdrummer ""]
i think everyone would rather be on ozzfest.
[Jan 25,2009 8:23pm - W3 nli ""]
ozzfest is a label
[Jan 25,2009 9:51pm - AUTOPSY_666 ""]

People use question marks to communicate to others that it is one!
[Jan 25,2009 11:13pm - yummy ""]
Then, clearly it was a statement.

I remember Verbal Assault well -- I think I was at their "last" show in Newport. I can't even remember how many years ago that was.
[Jan 29,2009 9:46am - AUTOPSY_666 ""]
It was 8-4-91 at The Blue Pelican.
They have never played again so not sure why you quoted last.
[Jan 29,2009 9:49am - largefreakatzero ""]
Well you posted current news of them compiling the old recordings -- I smelled a reunion show.

Sick Mind
Have to feed my sickness tonight
Fulfill my need to kill
Seek out innocent victims
Destroy their lives at will
Out on the street so late at night
To find another stranger
Take them back to my house
Not knowing the danger
I've got a sick mind...
Ripping, tearing, slicing your head
Get ready, prepare for attack
Bathing in blood, you're lusting in mud
Ripping the flesh from your back
Brains oozing from your eyes
As I smash the back of your head
How much longer will the punishment last
Before you're finally dead?!
I've got a sick mind...
Chop off the head, boil the flesh
Retain the skull for my collection
All the victims who died in pain
Suffered just for my obsessions
Drag the carcass to my yard
Where forever it will rot
There is no end to this bloody mess
My insanity never stops!
