AUGURY DRUMMER ANNOUNCES DEPARTURE FROM BAND
Creators of a progressive-minded extreme metal, Montreal's juggernauts
AUGURY sadly report the departure of their drummer Antoine Baril.
States Baril:
"I'm very sad to have to announce my departure from AUGURY. Some
personal and professional reasons have made multiple tours impossible
for me at the moment. I wish all the best for AUGURY because those
wonderful guys are making incredibly good music. I will never forget
those memorable shows and I would like to thank everyone for their
support on the road everywhere we've been on tour."
States the band:
"AUGURY thanks Antoine for all the good times and excellent music, and
we wish him well in all aspects of his life. He will remain a close
friend for all of us. For the upcoming tour with VADER [in support of
their new album Fragmentary Evidence], drummer Robin 'Frog' Stone from
Australian industrial metal mad scientists The Amenta will take over the
drum throne. He is a very tight and skilled drummer, having learned our
set in a matter of hours. Go to

to see a video of Robin in action. We have a new drummer

AUGURY FRONTMAN: "I'M A BIG FAN OF DALER MEHNDI."
MetalUnderground.com recently posted an interview with AUGURY's lead
vocalist Patrick Loisel:
Tell me about the name of the band. Does it have a direct connection to
the lyrics?
Patrick: Of course augury is a way to see the future from signs in
nature. The wind, the storms, the sight of a bird, whatever. The main
meaning most recently comes to use from a book I read on the Salem witch
trial. What I read is that anybody who did something unusual could land
in jail. The name of the charge was the "felony of augury." Meaning
forbidden knowledge, which is kind of the central meaning behind the
lyrics. Back at that time if somebody knew about medicinal plants it was
like "Oh she's a witch, kill her."
Outside of Augury what bands are you getting into lately?
Patrick: Myself I don't listen to a lot of music. I'm the kind of guy
who likes to do a lot of precise work so I like silence a lot. When I
listen to music I'm really into bands like Akercocke. Emperor, Strapping
Young Lad, a lot of Norwegian black metal. A lot of Arabic and Indian
pop music too, the kind of stuff you hear in Indian restaurants. If I
could I'd eat Indian food like 21 meals a week.
I'm not sure whether it's Indian or not but have you heard that "Tunak
Tunak Tun http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bAN7Ts0xBo " song?
Patrick: I love that song. I sing along with that one. I learned the
lyrics and I love to sing along. I even translated the lyrics. He's only
two years older than me, that guy. I'm a big fan of Daler Mehndi. The
background music is really ugly but the basic melody of the vocals is
great. "Tunak" is far from being his best song, but it's the only song
where he harmonized four lines of vocals. He did it live and recorded
that tune in like half an hour. Try to sing his vocal lines, he's one of
the best vocalists on Earth. Type in Daler Mehndi on YouTube. He's like
the Indian Gwen Stefani. There's another guy - he's like a Yngwie
Malmsteen with a turban. I've met a lot of third world metal musicians.
One of my dreams is to play all of the places described in the movie
"Global Metal." Except maybe Iraq, I don't want to get gunned down.

the deal with Quebec being a part of Canada but not wanting to be a part
of Canada?" here:
