Municipal Waste/Iron Reagan frontman Tony Foresta and Cannibal Corpse drummer Paul Mazurkiewicz have joined forces in a new project named Heaven’s Gate. Guitarist Mike Goo of Warthog and bassist Jeff Howe of Reversal Of Man/Horsewhip round up the band’s roster. A first track titled “Jerusalem Syndrome“, has premiered online and can be heard here.
“Long story short, Mike G, and I both moved to St Pete a few years ago and were dying to have some sort of fun creative outlet down here,” Foresta told Decibel when explaining their new project:
"Just a band in town that could play locally, write music and just hang out. I’ve been talking to Paul over the years about doing something together because we bonded over our mutual love for super fast bands like Limp Wrist, The Accüsed and Infest, and this just seemed like the perfect opportunity, since Mike is down with all that stuff as well. Adding Jeff to the fold made perfect sense with his history playing in killer bands from that era like Reversal of Man and CombatWoundedVeteran".
The Tampa, FL-based band will be making their live debut this coming weekend, with the below duo of shows booked. Asshole Parade will join as support.
