Chad Smith has done it again. Between working on the new RHCP record with new guitarist Josh Klinghoffer (www.redhotchilipeppers.com) and rumors of a second Chickenfoot album (www.chickenfoot.com). he has managed to bring us another Bombastic Meatbats album.
The first, entitled "Meet the Meatbats" (http://www.myspace.com/bombasticmeatbats) was released last year. The RHCP examiner is a little behind the eight ball on that one, but "More Meat", which drops on October 19th, is pre-ordered for an earlier release date. "Meet the Meatbats" is on its way in the mail as we speak. Expect reviews of both albums when they arrive.
From the band's MySpace page: "Remember the good old days, when jazz-fusion wasn't all about showing off your chops, and was more about creating sweeping moods, and the importance of songwriting? Well, the Bombastic Meatbats certainly remember those days. Having obviously studied the classic early-to-mid ‘70s recordings of such fusion greats as Return to Forever and Jeff Beck, the group (which includes such members as Grammy winning Red Hot Chili Peppers/Chickenfoot drummer Chad Smith, guitarist Jeff Kollman, keyboardist Ed Roth, and bassist Kevin Chown), is back with their sophomore full-length album. Aptly titled, “More Meat,” the album is jam packed follow-up to last year’s critically acclaimed “Meet the Meatbats,” and once more, is released by Warrior Records via Universal Music Group Distribution."

In addition to several other tour dates, the Meatbats will play the Iridium Jazz Club in NYC (http://www.iridiumjazzclub.com/) on Friday November 19th and Saturday November 20th. The RHCP Examiner will be in attendance for the two shows on the 19th and hopes to score an interview to include in the review of the show(s).
