Band, GB
Musician of Rock
Xanthoma is the side project of Dale Lee (bass) and Gramie Dee (guitars); both members of British thrash metal band Blood Money. Xanthoma is an outlet for their darker side, encompassing the ethos of death, the despair of doom and the destruction that is thrash. Sean Nelson from Tennessee death metal band Diabolical Dismemberment, completes the line-up on vocals, drum programming created by Mal Robins. Why this name? Xanthoma n. (Med.) zan-'thô-mə. A form of skin cancer Xanthoma n. (Metal.) zan-'thô-mə. A form of brutal, death/thrash/doom metal Do you play live? Xanthoma is currently a side project only, and seeing as the band members are in different countries (Dale and Gramie UK, Sean U.S.A.) NO gigs are planned for the time being. How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry? The internet has opened up the underground metal scene to broader horizons. More people can now gain access to music that was previously out of reach. Would you sign a record contract with a major label? Xanthoma is a side project, but if interest was shown by a label, then yes. Your influences? Opeth, Slayer, Mortician, Sabbath, Death
