The song, taken from the rapper’s 1990 album of the same name, probably never seemed like it was suitable for a chunky, metallic makeover, but Death Punch truly made it their own. Death Punch are no different, bestowing the moniker of Knuckleheads upon their followers.Īlmost certainly the most fun FFDP have ever sounded is when they took on the song Mama Said Knock You Out by New York hip-hop icon LL Cool J. Slipknot have Maggots, Avenged Sevenfold have Avengers and Black Label Society have Berserkers, it seems that if you are a massive cult metal band you need to give your fans a name to go by. But he could always hook up with fellow ex-5FDP man Jeremy Spencer in Psychosexual (see below…) After months of speculation, culminating in a fuck-you photo celebrating one million Instagram followers that didn’t feature Hook and dark rumours of a gagging order, the guitarist confirmed his departure. But, thanks to his superbly crushing guitar tone and technically dizzying solos, that’s exactly what happened.Īt least it was until Hook was recently given his marching orders by the band. The singer has batled addiction, rehab, public breakdowns and fights with his bandmates, but he is the face and voice of the band, and it’s hard to imagine how anyone else could step into his shoes were he to not be there.īack in the year 2000 Jason Hook was hired by Disney pop princess Hilary Duff to play guitar in her band, back then you’d have got long odds on him becoming an iconic metal musician.
Divisive, enigmatic, unpredictable and unique, Ivan Moody has been on a hell of a ride during his time fronting FFDP.
