The
day concludes with the resurrection of Mass Mental. What do mega groups
Metallica and Skindred have in common? Mass Mental! The all star, all
monster group was founded by Metallica’s Robert Trujillo formerly of
Suicidal Tendencies and Skindred singer Clive “Benji” Webbe, formerly of
Dub War. Also in the band since the beginning is Warwick Artist Armand
Sabal-Lecco whose list of credits includes Stanley Clarke and Sting. In
1999 the band released “How to Write Love Songs”, along with the live
album “Live in Tokyo”. Both albums were released exclusively in Japan.
Shortly thereafter the band broke up, allowing the band members to
return to their main projects. In 2002, Mass Mental reunited briefly
with Roy Mayorga playing drums, although no new material resulted.
Still, Robert Trujillo never really lost sight of his “baby”. Now Mass
Mental has found its way back together and will be performing an
exclusive reunion concert at Warwick HQ in Markneukirchen, Germany.
