John Tempesta - Soho

John Tempesta is a metal journeyman - His work with Rob Zombie, Exodus, Testament, Zakk Wylde's Black Label Society, Tony Iommi (Black Sabbath guitarist), Helmet, Scum of The Earth and the Cult shows a 20 year legacy of metal mastery.

Previous band mates haven't been shy raving about John's percussive power. Testament's Eric Peterson said "John is definitely one of the best drummers in the country.

Former White Zombie bassist Sean Yseult said "John was the best." The votes are cast. This guy can ROCK!

John's attitude is reflected when he says "I've been able to record and tour with so many people I've always admired. I'm very fortunate, and there are so many great players out there, so I've been very lucky and blessed. If you believe in what you do, anything can happen..."
