Last year Angel filled in on drums for the industrial super-group Pig (with Raymond Watts, founding member of KMFDM). Then he did a tour filling in on drums for the band Crossbreed. Continues Angel:

\"After all that, I did a headlining Australian tour with my old band Genitorturers. We also did some USA special event shows including a New Years Eve show in Seattle, as well as a direct support slot to Mötley Crüe!\"

It\'s now 2007 and Angel has joined the group Dope. They are currently in the studio working on the band\'s fifth full-length record. Says Angel:

\"In a few weeks, we will hit the road for a short headlinging tour. When we return, we will finish the new cd. Then it\'s pretty much non-stop touring for the rest of the year.\"
