This story is so epic.
I hope it was all some Spinal Tap style mockumentary and the whole thing was filmed so we can watch it.

How the f*** did he expect this to not get exposed? Also, that really shows just how bullshit social media fame has become, huh? You can literally just pay people to press a "like button so you can pretend to be popular. Check out John Oliver’s segment from last night on social media, doesn’t address this clown, but ads on social media.

MetalSucks published an interview with one of the departed band members today. Crazy stuff.
The man himself has also reactivated his social media profile and is putting out a statement tomorrow. Sometimes the world is as beautiful as it should be.

I've said it once, and I'll say it again.
I hate the "Fake it til you make it" mentality of this world now. It's turned so many people into scam artists, and it'd be a lot easier to just get better at your craft than just lying your ass off trying to get famous.

Latest updates, apparently his real name is Jered Eames, and his brother is a decently successful guitarist called Scott Eames.
He also had another band where he pretty much pulled the same bullshit on a smaller scale but had a little success before it broke up.

Linked MetalSucks article says he was actually a member of Abigail Williams for at least a short time, a legit band that could play a euro tour to OK crowds. Dude can’t claim ignorance as an excuse, so he’s going with the “I’m in on the joke” line.

His label Ascension Monuments Media has been doing unauthorized reissues of Judas Iscariot albums. Akhenaten has had to do a lot of explaining that he never gave Judd permission to do this.

all we need is for Michael Keene and/or Frankie Palmieri's entire band to quit on them again and we'll be all set.

To revive one of my favorite stupid jokes I like to make, I have been hired and fired from Nightwish, in other music news.

"Was it you on this record?" "Nah, I got fired the week before they went into the studio." "Oh. Must have been me, then."

I wouldn't worry too much. If his whole band bails again he'll somehow still pull a full lineup out of his ass again.

I have a very good friend who is fairly well known in the tech death scene and it's almost hilarious how shit he would tell me about guys in the scene ten years ago is now wide out in the open.
