This week's Metal Update went out to over 15,640 subscribers. -- NEWS -- MEGADETH The lawsuit filed by former Megadeth bassist David Ellefson against singer-guitarist David Mustaine, disputing the legitimacy of a May 2004 settlement agreement and seeking at least $18.5 million in damages, was dismissed by a federal judge in New York on January 13th, according to The Hollywood Reporter.com. The article also states that Ellefson's attorney has already filed a notice of appeal, and that a countersuit filed by Mustaine agains Ellefson remains pending. TESTAMENT The band has announced they will re-release the 1991 documentary 'Seen Between the Lines' on DVD this spring. The documentary contains live footage, promotional music videos, rare video clips, as well as behind the scenes and candid footage. FATES WARNING Following the departure of Mark Zonder, the band has announced the drummers for their upcoming European shows. Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater) will join them on drums for the Headway festival. Nick D'Virgilio (Spock's Beard) will handle drumming duties for the scheduled February dates. KATAKLYSM Kataklysm have parted ways with drummer Martin Maurais, citing "personal and professional reasons." Max Duhamel, who performed on five past Kataklysm albums including Shadows and Dust has been named as his replacement. Kataklysm will be direct support on the Danzig tour with Trivium and Eyes of Fire, beginning February 18th. CRISIS Crisis have added drummer Ryan Ball to the line up. Karyn Crisis is one of the women featured on this week's episode, entitled "Chicks in Metal," of Uranium airing on Fuse beginning January 21st. SKINLESS Vocalist Jason Keyser has been added to the Skinless lineup following the departure of Sherwood Webber. Keyser is the brother of bass player Joe Kyser. The new lineup will debut onstage in Providence, RI on March 4th. The band plans to enter the studio by the end of 2005 to record a new album for release through Relapse Records in 2006. The band recently released a DVD, entitled 'Skinflick.' ARCTURUS Simen Hestnęs (Vortex of Dimmu Borgir and Borknagar) recently joined the band as lead vocalist. His first appearance with the band will be at the Inferno Metal Festival in London on January 27th. The band has signed to Season of Mist and will be entering the studio in February to record their new album, scheduled for an August release.

Contact: guitwzd@aol.com -- FEATURES -- FRANTIC BLEEP http://www.metalupdate.com/interviewfranticbleep.html What does one expect to hear from a band named Frantic Bleep? Probably not the progressive metal that is pouring from your speakers the minute you press play. These Norwegians have a natural ability to construct intricate structures without losing the listener in a sea of confusion. And to have the concept of the album revolve completely around the artwork is something rather unheard of, yet intriguing in the end. Metal Update had a talk with guitarist turned bassist Oyvind Sundstrom about the band's debut 'Sense Apparatus,' the mind-boggling lyrics and the musical chairs situation within the line-up.
