Howdy!
 
Cos im a chav theif innit! on the way to gigs i cant resist the urge to break into some old ladies house and steal her ****! but then while playing on stage i have a fit of guilt and in a blind rage at myself feel the overwhelming urge to smash it up and hide the evidence.
 
(serious answer: i know someone who works in a pawn shop, gives me the broken dvds and vids to smash up, they are good cos the shrapnel is limited and the shock they can take is high)
 
Im actualy getting a bit bored of the smashing thing now but the fans like it, so i'll do it until theyre bored too... ive got a chainsaw now  just need ot work out what im gonna do with it hahaha!!

That would be....dangerously entertaining. I remember the Christmas show you guys did at High Wycombe where you wrestled Santa Claus onstage. Great stuff...will have to come along when you do your next tour and I'll see which date(s) I can hit

hahaha! made to order onstage!
 
if anyone fancies helping us play download this year i'll gladly run onstage and scare the bejezus out of AIDEN or whomever..

Mark !!! You are one HUGE guy - I should imagine if you run menacingly at anyone it would scare them half to death !

I saw you only recently with Sepultura, and you and Derrick Green make a rather scary combination.

Saw you at Bloodstock, hadn't even heard of you, bloody well have now, blew me away, what a powerful live band you are, went out and bought XXL ,barn storming album, keep it coming.

 
wow, thanks dude, real nice of ya to say. New album is in the making now, its gonna make the other one look like a little girl..

 
I caught most of your set when you were supporting Sepultura in Islington a few weeks back. Excellent stuff - very impressed.
 
I meant to go and find an album, but haven't got around to it yet. But I will

My question to you would have been "Have you got anything recorded yet?" - but I can see above that you've already answered that. I'll have to think of something better to ask.

cheers dude!!.

i can make it more interesting if you like?..." thanks for your question.. no, we havent recorded anything yet, we plan on doing something soon inbetween listening to mid 90's nu-metal and licking the cats butt".

XXL has been out in UK since 2006 and in Japan since April 2007, New album should be out late this year or early 2008!

Question to Logan; When are you going to tour the UK again?
 
And can you please, please kick the crap out of the Gallagher Brothers...that would be worthy of a headlining spot at Donny.

Hi Mark
What are you plans for the rest of the year/early next year gig wise ??
 
How did you all meet - where you in bands prior to hooking up Head On ?

once we've done the album, but our label and our manager are sorting out some stuff as we speak. With any luck there will be a couple of Panic Cell/Head-on shows some time in 2008 if Luke and I have anything to do with it!

Galagher bros? hmm im more up for slapping that doherty fellow, syringe addled joker that he is..

gigs please see above.., and as for how we met, my self Oz (guitar) and effon (drums) have been playing in bands since 99 (most notable was Age of Ruin - average metalcore/hardcore/heavy metal nonsense) and our bassist Ross, is the singer and guitarist for UK metal titans DESCENT.

We met after playing shows together back in the day and kept in touch. formed head-on purely as a laugh and have been playing since..
