Gene Hoglan to sit out Fear Factory tour

Renowned drummer Gene Hoglan has revealed that he will not accompany Fear Factory on their upcoming tour with Shadows Fall et al. Hoglan has issued the following statement:
"Howdy everybody! I hope your New Year's been treating all of ya right. Mine has, definitely. Testament and Anthrax to start the year off? Hell yeah! Real quick though, I must point out that this upcoming Fear Factory run in April through June, I won't be a part of, but I'm sure who ever they get is gonna kick some ass, absolutely! I'd like to wish them the best on the tour, and I'm sure everyone's gonna make out just fine. I have some extremely exciting things on the go at that same time and I'm sure some announcements are gonna be made here in the next few days to explain a bunch of what's gonna be happening in ol' Hog-Land throughout the rest of the year. I wish everybody the best, and I'm stoked to be where I'm at right now."

When he said "Hog-Land", I instantly visualized a magical place full of double kick pedals, dozens of small royalty checks, and McDouble wrappers

fck all of you humans who talk shit about people's looks as a way to deal with your own deceptions.

I wish I could piss. My kidneys are failing.

Gene Hoglan is the man and a legend in the genre! anybody talking shit about him doesn't deserve to have the capablility to listen to metal

Pretty disappointing seeing a group of punks tossing out barbs at one of the best drummers out there - not to mention one of the best PEOPLE out there. Gene Hoglan is a stand-up guy, and - if those who like to throw cowardly jabs actually were up-to-date with the life of Gene - they'd know Gene lost a SHIT-LOAD of weight. Believe it or not, Gene is looking better than Vinnie Paul these days, and I'm damn proud of him! Love you Gene! fck all these haters... JIMBO
