This is just me, but I attend Darkest Hour shows mostly to make goo-goo eyes at guitarist Mike Schleibaum, fellow devotée of my boner band The Crown (and The Cars). That’s my M.O. no judgements please. Still I was bummed when sweet drummer Ryan Parrish announced his departure from DH late last year. But dude is already in A Cancerous Affair, the project started by his former DH bandmate and guitar freak Kris Norris. And which now welcomes its newest member, keyboardist Knockerz Randall.

Formerly of Winds Of Plague, Randall joins at the pre-production stage of a record that Norris calls “melodic swedish metal with a touch of prog, ambient, and rock.” And it’s a practical move for Randall, author of this wildly newsworthy pic of her canz; that is, she needs not rely on insecure telecommunications to share those melonz with a dude, cuz hey her dude is Parrish himself, just a few feet away on the drum stool. So, y’know, flashing her pert jammerz in person is much more private. Unless Parrish has a drum cam back there. Hint hint.
