UK Tour

Next month the band are off to play 3 gigs in England. Yeah I can't wait for that - and I am going to get my Flying V painted up in a special rainforest artwork finish

New Album News

It's here the new album - promo release - is ready, working title 'GreenWar' and we are working on the album cover with acclaimed east coast eco artist Saphron Forest-berry.

Last night's gig in Wholesome Foods Mart was a total disaster, Vegan got pissed and started arguing with some deathmetal types in the front row. The pretend metallers were eating full meat burgers and taunting Vimina. Doktor Donowt got mad and jumped into the crowd and head-butted the punks, but after that the gig went fine. A crowd of least 42 were packed into the shopping mall foyer, the crowd went mad for a different reason once Vimina stripped down to her hemp g-string and simulated some action with an organic zucchini.

Saturday's gig is at the Wellbean Vegetarian Hall on 42nd and March Street, Weston IL - 10pm get there early for the big giveaway at 9

Tour Drama

Whoa Fans! Vegan here....................
What a night it was on Saturday in the Yellow Ribbon Hall, packed out and everybody surfin and slammin while Vimina strutted her stuff - hey man she is HOT!

I can't stand it but I have to tell you that Dill is planning a short series of club gigs in England!!!
But can't say too much but it may involve Ecosphear playing support to Judas Priestess (an all female Priest tribut band!) and headliners Shitescone. More later!

Dill's wife Henrietta is planning to add to our merchandise range with collection of veggie tv dinner packs!

The new song 'Holistic Avenger' was a hit with the crowd on Saturday.....................proud as hell! As our Liverpool born bassist Dr Donowt says he is 'made up'!

And keep those album suggestions coming in!

Album Title

Hey Ecosphear fans!
Dill Docken, the band's manager and number 1 fan here scribing this from Vegan's lap-top in the cafe at the Yellow Ribbon Concert Hall scene of tonite's green metal onslaught! There is 2 hours to go but already the place is filling up, can you dig it!?
News is spreading fast of new band member Vimina's debut show, and those hooters heh heh.
Psst, let you into a secret there is a new song being tried out tonight too, it is called 'Holistic Avenger' and is played at 500mph!
So here come's the reason for my post, haha

Post your comments to the blog suggesting a title for the soon to be release album

Simple as that metal fans, happy naming.

And this just in from Yellow Ribbon Town newspaper, the very place we are playing tonite;
"Ecosphear - are the acclaimed fast n heavy green thrash metal band. Current band line-up consists of Lord Vegan (lead vocals), Human Cabbage (lead guitar), Doktor Donowt (bass), Smocaidh Tromsgat (drums) and the recent addition of on-stage eco- stripper and backing vocalist Vimina.
The band are putting the finishing touches to their new album (yet to be titled) with tracks such as the sustainable products anthem Stand By For Recycler, the pro-fertiliser romp Feel The Dump and the vegetarian thrash exploiter Suck My Root."
The message is getting around!

Incidentally eco fans, I am planning a totally sustainable gig in the near future, powered by solar panels and wind turbines!

I am off to do the sound check with the guys (and gal) and then the pre gig meal, Dokter's aunt Lila has prepared a full on ration of Veggie Enchiladas that will kill or f**kin cure!
Wish me luck!

Back On The Road Again Influences

Hi Green Metal fans, more importantly Ecosphear fans!!
Rock n roll!!

Lord Vegan here back in the saddle, and thanks for all the get well messages you emailed Dill and Henrietta Docken at the fan club - and who was that chick who sent me her panties!? Wow!

It's back to business in getting the Ecosphear message across live on stage, and tonight is the first night with Vimina as our new band member and guess what guys?
Human Cabbage was right she is boob-laden!! Whoa what a mamma but listen we at Ecosphear are totally into women's rights and will make sure that she is not exploited for male gratification ok.

Ok I better go and get ready for the gig, can't wait to see Vimina's thong clad ass!

By the way just listening to a demo by a totally hooked grindcore band named Shitescone, they are from Scotland or somewhere. Cool!

Lord Vegan In Traffic Accident Worry

Hi Fans
Human Cabbage scribing this post today, last night the band were about to go into rehearsals and our manager Dill came in ashen-faced (which is opposed to his usual shit-faced) with the news that our lead singer Lord Vegan had been involved in a traffic accident!
Lord had been driving his mother's pick-up truck from his condo where he lives with his mother and 'uncle' Bernie. Apparently his 100% organic hair gel reacted badly to the balmy evening air here in Florida and it semi-melted trickling down his face and then blinding Lord causing him to crash the pick-up into a fire hydrant. He suffered minor injury to his ego but the pick-up was an insurance write-off. Unfortunately his mother grounded him and the rehearsal was unable to go ahead last night, but we hope there will be no problem for the planned gig at the Vagan's Yellow Ribbon Concert Hall venue tomorrow night as it is passed Lord's 48hour mother enforced curfew.

Some better news for all you guys (and chicks) Ecosphear are getting a full-time chick backing singer and dancer for our stageshow. She is a booby laden mistress known as Vimina, cool!

Interview Part 2

Part 2 of the MetalzMindz fanzine interview with Ecosphear lead singer Lord Vegan

Q: Do you practice what you preach?

Vegan: Good you ask the question (smiles)

Q: How's that?

V: uhh, yeah we do like the whole band is vegetarian including the roadies and we only smoke 100% organic weed (laughs)

Q: I read somewhere that you were planning to do some cover versions for the new album?

V: We thought about it but Human (Cabbage, lead guitar) said let's keep it to one album so we are going for the sensitive Rainbow track 'Eyes Of The World'

Q: Is Human Cabbage a bit of Blackmore fan then?

V: wooah yeah totally like he has got all the blackmore vinyl (grins)

Q: So where to you think you will be in 5 years time?

V: well I reckon i will be still touring but I expect it will be big stadium gigs, green metal is going to take off. I will be doing chicks and driving a big SUV, like those kick ass Dodge Rams. I'd like to think we will have our own private jet too, Dill (Ecosphear manager) says we might be able to get one right on the back of the new album which would be really cool.

Q: isn't private aviation contributing to global warming?

V: don't think so I insist that any jet will have to run on unleaded gasoline. In fact we rented a learjet on this tour, it was funny because Human got a craving for his favourite hamburger from his local Wendy's and that night after the gig nothing else would do, man he was going crazy so Dill organised a jet to bring the burger chef out with the whole staff. Cool! (laughs)

Interview Part 1

Extract from last weekend's interview with MetalzMindz fanzine: Part 2 coming later.

"Sunday morning at 11, I meet up with vocalist and founding member of green metal sensation 'Ecosphear' in the studio. The self styled guardian of eco-truth Lord Vegan is busy working on the final production tweaking of the yet to be titled debut album, eagerly awaited by the band's cult following.

Vegan leans back in the studio couch with a half bottle of Jack D in one hand and clutching a well wrinkled copy of the British newspaper 'Sunday Sport' in the other.

Q: Not at church this Sunday morning Lord?

Vegan: (laughs then serious) nah, the only church I worship in is for Mother Nature - she's the only one who can save us now.

Q: How's the new tour going?

Vegan: Great (smiles) we had 3 humvee limos full of chicks roll up to the gig last night to take us back to the hotel.

Q: Aren't humvees gas guzzlers?

V: (gulps some JD) nah man it was just a PR stunt we don't own then or anything....yet (laughs)

Q: Do you like Bob Geldof?

V: Oh (smiles) Sir Bob, yeah I think he could be cool. Isn't he one of those Africans who were banged up with Winnie Mandela in prison you know like when those fascists ruled African and all that place?

Q: Nelson Mandela

V: yeah cool

Q: When's the new album out?

V: It's due out in the Fall

Q: Any title yet?

V: (laughs) we're gonna start a website and invite our fans to tell us the title, should be real cool

Q: Do you support green political parties in europe?

V: If they were radical enough but they are not, out of tune with the street man those suits

Q: What's your fav movie?

V: Two actually, 'Fire Down Under' and 'On Deadly Ground' both starring Steven Seagal.

Q: Why those films?

V: They epitomise what Eco-sphear are all about - one against many

Q: Your music?

V: Yeah man (gulps at more JD) but it is a war out there, a war to save the planet and we are on Mutha Nature's side. Stevie Seagal was on the side of justice, did all his own stunts too

Q: Have you seen Al Gore's film 'An Inconvenient Truth' yet?

V: Not yet, is it a action thriller? Who is in it?

Part 2 of the interview will be posted at a later date
