Bill Murray is forced to live the same dayover-and-over. How boring, right? I love pizza, but I don't want to eat it every meal. With our new album you will find our InchusualInch doomy riffs, but we also took some chances. There's acoustic guitars, violin, flute and of course lots of heavy riffs. Diversity. It keeps things interesting. I picked the title InchHomeInch because as much as I love to travel, it's always nice to come home. Johnny's mom died last year. Some would say the Lord took her Home. Johnny and I recorded 17 new songs, but we couldn't fit them all on this album. We are honored that some of the best vocalists and bassists worked with us to lend their talents. We hope you love Patriarchs in Black InchHomeInch.

The album was mixed and mastered at JROD Productions by Jon Cioicari.InchIt's SO fun and not putting too much pressure on singers to come up with one or two amazing lyrics and melodies a year. I write a LOT of riffs/music.Our third album came together very easily. FUN FUN FUNInch says Dan.

All roads lead to Black Sabbath! When New Jersey scene veteran Dan Lorenzo (Hades, Non-Fiction) was looking for musicians for his new project, Overkill's Bobby Blitz gave him the idea of knocking on John Kelly's (Danzig, Type O Negative) door, because - according to Blitz - Inchhe would fit your riffs perfectlyInch. Blitz was right and Lorenzo and Kelly, who had never worked together before, formed Patriarchs in Black. The duo makes no secret of where the musical heart of this collaboration beats - to put it in Kelly's words InchAll roads lead to Black Sabbath!Inch So on these nine groovy songs there are many dragging riffs, with which homage is paid to the forefathers of doom, on the one hand - and on the other hand such a snotty-rock charm that would also make the album a perfect soundtrack for a remake of InchEasy RiderInch. For InchReach For The ScarsInch, the duo recruited a whole host of guest musicians who each put their own stamp on the songs. On this album, Karl Agell (COC), Dewey Bragg (Kill Devil Hill), Rob Traynor (Black Water Rising), John Kosco (Dropbox), Eric J. Morgan (A Pale Horse Named Death) and Dave Neabore (Dog Eat Dog), among others, give each song a unique authenticity that makes the overall result an entertaining and varied pleasure.
