The Menace Diaries - Chapter 1: Enter Jaz Coleman 


The making of the 'Scene is Dead' 

August 2006 ^ Jaz Coleman joins the 'This is Menace' brotherhood 

This was a major coup for Menace ^ one of the most inspirational and unique
sounding vocalists from one of the most influential bands of all time - Jaz
Coleman from Killing Joke is a genius and it is an honour to have him on the
new album. He did have one specific demand though for this to happen ^ a box
of cigars. Fine we thought, we'll just get him a box of Hamlet and be done
with it. 
But oh no! these had to be a certain make and size of cigar. A box of King
size anniversary Padron ciagrs to be precise and they cost well on the way
to £600.00 !!! But when you consider the end product that we eventually got,
it was well worth the money. 

The vocals were recorded in Bethnal green in London at one of Jaz's producer
friends studio. Jerry (producer) had actually recorded Jaz's vocals on the
last two Killing Joke albums and had a great chemistry with him too ^ you
need one to work with this guy ^ he does not suffer fools gladly and has
strong opinions on . . apocalyptic issues!!?? These surfaced in the Menace
track. Entitled 'The Great Migration' the song deals with our Mother Earth -
ruined and flooded by our own 'toxic' activities to such an extent that a
new map of the world has to be redrawn to show the new geography created by
the man-made devastation. Check out the sneak preview of Jaz in the studio
with Menace on the main page. Taken from the forthcoming DVD ^ entitled
'Emotion sickness' there is a full interview with Jaz Coleman as well as his
studio performance in a special 'Making of the Scene is Dead' section. 

The DVD is crammed full of other features, which are :- 

- This is Menace live at the Mean Fiddler in London 
- Interviews backstage with the star vocalists ^ cut with footage from the
bands performance at Download'06 
- A drumcam view of the Main concert for you budding Metal drummers 
- Making of the new This is Menace album 'The Scene is Dead' which

and Charlie Simpson (Fightstar)

The Emotion sickness DVD will be released early September 2007 
The brand new This is Menace album entitled 'The Scene is dead' will be
