Serpent from Eden, the much-acclaimed California metal band featuring guitarist John “Gumby” Goodwin (Ozzy Osbourne, Ringo Starr, George Clinton) presents a very special new album - a tribute to fallen bandmate Nick Menza, with the drummer himself a key presence on every single track.
 
For over 30 years, Gumby, Menza and bassist Darwin Ballard played together, building up an exemplary body of work whose entire story has already been told across no less than twenty “volumes” of documentary, available on YouTube, and detailing the band’s brutal assault upon the nation’s ears via live footage, videos, photos and interviews.
 
Serpent From Eden bandmates Pauli Infantino (vocals), James Yokoi (bass), and Chris Tracy (drums), and Darwin Ballard too will also be heard on the album, while special guests Chris Poland and fellow Medadeth-er David Ellefson also contribute stellar performances. Producer Max Norman then distilled everything into this collection of songs, to help the world remember a true rock legend and hear him play killer new music for the first time in many years!
 
The result is a stand out collection of powerful, dynamic, and melodic hard rock music that will be impossible to pigeon hole as one style but it is still highly cohesive as a whole, all bound together by just one intention - to honor Nick Menza in the way he would want to be honored, with an uncompromising, heavy musical statement, encompassing his wide range of musical tastes but always with his ever insatiable need for musical power!
