Former FEAR FACTORY guitarist Dino Cazares has left SKUMLOVE, the California-based group he has been gigging with for much of the past two years. "Dino has gotten back into his work with BRUJERIA and ASESINO as well as his own main project," SKUMLOVE frontman Skum explained. "We wish him the best and I'm sure we'll be working on SKUMLOVE studio stuff with him.

"We are currently auditioning people who can play guitar/keyboards and also a solid drummer as Chris 'The Hitman' Anotopolis is busy with VANILLA ICE and a new band with Logan Mader (ex-MACHINE HEAD, SOULFLY). If you think you fit the bill email us @ skumlove@aol.com. We want someone young energetic with an attitude and talent. We want to take this year even further then last!"

In other news, SKUMLOVE will be releasing a CD through Hot Topic along with new merchandise, according to Skum. "The CD will include the three song previously released through our site along with three more new songs some remixes and a cover song."

I really missed Dino. He is one of my guitar hero. I learn bunch of stuffs from Fear Factory albums especially his riffs. He is one of the most creative guitarist in the world. His riff is totally killer!! I really want to see him play with Fear Factory again.
