| | My copy took 4 weeks until I received it. Usually it is faster, but this time it was opened by the German customs office. That happens sometimes when I get CDs by airmail but then it takes up to 4 weeks. |

| so thats eighteen days
so eighteen divided by seven equals 2.57
rounding that number equals two and a half weeks
so if it takes four weeks it will arrive in a week and a half
man thats a long two and a half weeks |

Nahhh. Not a fan. There are a ton of Christian black metal bands. One of the earliest was called Horde on Nuclear Blast some years ago.

| Scott or Robert,
This may have been asked before but....
I am listening to Puppet at work today and would love to hear it get the same treatment that Symphonic and Mechanics received. I know Scott had said in the past that Rowe Productions still has, for lack of a better word, "control" of it. (I'm not sure how all that works) But will that control be given to the band eventually and could this possibly see a "Deluxe" reissue one day? |

It is very possible that we will be putting out a reissue of Puppet of Destruction in 2008. I love the music on that CD but have always held that the mastering destroyed the mix. Most of the bottom end was lost. I know it can sound so much better and have heard our most recent engineer do a quick remaster that sounded GREAT! So, yes, it's quite possible that it will be given that same treatment. You might want to email Retroactive and ask them the same question to help light the fire, so to speak.

| Here's the response I received from Matthew Hunt. I see his point. Real nice guy, btw.....

Hi Brian,
I am thrilled to hear that fans of pleased with the reissues. I would say there is a chance that Puppets could get done as well.....but I'm not in any hurry for it because you can still get budget priced copies at Rad Rockers. These reissues have not exactly sold like crazy, so I am guessing it will be at least another year or two before I would want to do Puppet.....we have so any astounding new titles coming out this year, that it would be hard to find time for something that I fear would have a limited sales potential.....here is what to look for in 2008.....
2008
RESURRECTION BAND - COLOURS digipack
DANIEL BAND - ONE ROCK + 2 bonus tracks
HIS WITNESS - KINGDOM COME (engineered by Elephantes)
ORACLE - SELAH + bonus tracks
THE SEVENTH POWER - tba (feat. Robert Sweet & Tony Franklin)
MENCHEN - tba (feat. Robert Sweet & Tony Franklin, and a powerhouse vocalist in the vein of Geoff Tate named Ken Redding)
TITANIC - MAIDEN VOYAGE (remastered / new artwork Robert Sweet on drums)
TITANIC - SCREAMING IN SILENCE (remastered / new artwork Robert Sweet on drums)
FINAL AXE - BEYOND HELL'S GATE (remastered / new artwork Robert Sweet on drums)
GRAVE ROBBER - BE AFRAID (Indiana band with muscular sound similar to the dark sounds of The Misfits and Danzig)
LETTER 7 - SALT OF THE EARTH (remastered / new artwork)
BARNABAS - FEEL THE FIRE
BARNABAS - LITTLE FOXES
ARMADA - tba (three albums on 2 cds.....FRONTLINE, BLACK & WHITE, and a third to be decided upon) |
So I guess we all gotta put up some money for a remastered Puppet of Destruction. It will be the first release on Heart Of Metal Records, LLC  Gotta have that limited liability..... |

| Well, the Armada and Rez releases sound interesting.
We might re-release Puppet ourselves. You cannot believe the difference mastering makes.
I knew that Matt was interested in Puppet but wasn't in a rush due to the fact that Mechanics isn't moving like he had hoped. However, he told me that Into the Pit is selling "like gangbusters" and that is helping to sell more copies of the remasters, "as we get new fans."
I had actually suggested doing Puppet instead of Mechanics when he first contacted us, but he was more interested in Mechanics and Symphonic.
Thanks,
ult

Since radrockers has all the old Puppet copies, until those are gone, there isn't much point in remastering the album on a large scale. But if you guys did it yourselves on a limited run, I would want copy number one. So would plenty of other folks on here. I hope you guys are able to do it. |

| Would it be ok to start an Ultimatum tribute band and call it, "Ultitomato-um"?

When we played C-Stone in Cali this past Sept., Pastor Bob said he wanted to bring us out to a show. I hope it happens, but nothing has been booked thus far. We told him we'd be interested in Elements of Rock and/or Nordic Fest. You might mention it to the promoters of those festivals that you'd be interested in having us come out. The more interest generated, them better the possibility.

I only know cause I stayed with the same folks (members of Emerald) that Andreas and Pastor Bob did during Cali-Stone. I gave Andreas a t-shirt I got from you guys in Sunland. If you remember (doubtful ?) I was the bald dude with the red beard wearing a "Into The Pit" t-shirt standing next to Andreas when you put the mic up to his face to yell "heart of metal" You guys rocked |
