Remembering: Wayne Static

remembering wayne static

On November 1, 2014, Wayne Static left us far too soon at the age of 48. His legacy and music continue to resonate long after his passing. Today, we remember Wayne and his incredible career.

Wayne was never one to follow trends; instead, he defined his own unique style that set the bar for others. His work with Static-X spanned six studio albums, producing iconic hits like “Cold,” “I’m With Stupid,” and “Push It.” Wayne’s final recordings with Static-X were released posthumously in Project Regeneration Vol. I and II. His solo outing, Pighammer, further cemented his status as the King of Evil Disco.

Did Wayne ever believe he’d become such an icon? The thought probably never crossed his mind. He dedicated himself to his craft and his fans, and it was evident in his electrifying performances and the passion he infused into his music. Wayne was one of a kind: there was never anyone like him before, and there never will be again. That his legacy endures attests to his everlasting impact on the industry, and on his grateful fans.

We loved you, Wayne, and we still do. You’ve never been forgotten. Thank you for the music, thank you for the memories, and most of all, thank you for taking us along on your journey.

Thank you.

Hello hello, and welcome to another update. Sorry for being MIA, I wasn’t feeling well the past few days. Today we’re jumping right into it with updates to EDF Photo (got to remind you about Evil Disco The Movie after all!).

Evil Disco The Movie

23 photos have been added to the Evil Disco gallery on EDF Photo. Edsel isn’t shown too much in this trailer, but hey … this is a momentous movie, and he’s in it. We’re covering it, for sure.
Is this the first time you’ve heard about the movie Evil Disco? Let’s give you a quick recap of what we know. Evil Disco is billed as a chronicle of the rise, fall and regeneration of metal legends Static-X. Not only will we hear from the band in their own words, but a veritable who’s who of metal superstars. The trailer features Dino from Fear Factory, Lajon Witherspoon of Sevendust, Dave Navarro, and of course… Edsel Dope. That’s enough star power to make any metal fan excited to see this movie, in my opinion. There’s no release date as of yet, but we’re keeping our eyes peeled here.
I’ve provided the link above so you can go right to Static-X ‘s official Youtube channel to check out the trailer for yourself. Be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already so you never miss a video from the band!
Interested in my thoughts on this movie? I’ve given my initial reaction to the trailer right here. I’m still really excited to see this movie. As a longtime Static-X fan, I’ve always hoped there would one day be a documentary where they get to tell their story themselves. Edsel featuring in the movie is just a bonus!

What do YOU think? Are you excited for the movie Evil Disco? Will you be seeing it when it comes out?

Edsel Dope fan (listings) and More: Fanlisting Portal Opens!

dope, edsel dope, static-x, wayne static Comments Off

As promised, I’ve got something fun for you today. Today marks the grand opening of the edseldopefan.org Fanlisting Portal! You might recall that awhile back I built the Edsel Dope and Dope fanlistings. (Imagine edseldopefan.org not having a place that you can declare that you are an Edsel Dope fan…) At the time, I launched them with a post right here. Well, I knew I was also applying for the Static-X and Wayne Static fanlistings. Ended up getting both, and since then I’ve completed our little fanlisting network. I kept quiet about fanlistings for a bit, in an effort to launch all four together (as I should have done in the first place, really). So now all four are officially launching today! Our fanlistings are connected to The Fanlistings Network, which is a directory for fanlistings.

Fanlistings? What are fanlistings?

What is a fanlisting, you ask? Here’s the description by The Fanlistings Network website: A fanlisting is simply an online listing of fans of a subject, such as a TV show, actor, or musician, that is created by an individual and open for fans from around the world to join. There are no costs, and the only requirements to join a fanlisting are your name and country. Fanlistings do not have to be large sites (although some are) – they are just a place where you can have your name listed along with other fans of the same subject. – The Fanlistings Network

So basically, a fanlisting is just a way for you to support a subject! There’s a big disclaimer about fanlistings that is worth mentioning, however: a fanlisting does not denote official recognition by a subject. No connection to any of the subjects of these fanlistings is claimed or implied. edseldopefan.org’s fanlistings are made by a fan, for fans!

Let’s go over the sites in the edseldopefan.org Fanlisting Portal:

Well… I mean we ARE Edsel Dope fan for a reason…
