I was a Sonisphere and talking about UK Thrash with a dude, probably due to my Chewin Druids top. Anyway, Savage Messiah came up and he said the band had fallen apart/separated/given up. Can anyone shed some light on this? I thought I would have heard something but, knowing their past difficulties, it seemed plausible. Anyone?

Nope.
New guitarist. (Another new one)
New bassist.
Recording as we speak.

Ha, there are always rumours and stories about Savage Messiah! The last time I saw Dave he had a cold and Tom Draper was the new guitarist. Do you mean he's the new guitarist, or there's yet another new one after him, F-man?

at least that article on blabbermouth wasn't as cringeworthy as when they signed with candlelight...

such 'meh' news, the band just do absolutely nothing for me... find it so repetitive and unoriginal, 3 riffs in a 4 minute song?!? *yawwwwwwwwwwn*.... solos are good though!
However I am glad to see that Dave (it would seem) has dropped the whole "Savage Messiah is Dave Silver's band and he's awesome" ego trip thing
