Heavy rock veterans A Good Rogering are taking their 2022 album ‘Systematic Paralysis’ back on the road with their “Last Time For Now” tour hitting seven cities across the Southwest. The five-piece lineup brings together vocalist and guitarist Skunk Manhatten, guitarist Tim Driscoll, mainstay drummer Rom Gov, original bassist Blaine Matte, and keys/vocalist Adam Kirby for a run that includes a stop at the legendary Whisky A Go Go in West Hollywood. The tour launches January 16 at Fuel Bar in San Antonio and wraps February 1 at Come & Take It Live in Austin, with stops at The Detour Bar in Midland, The 44 Sports Grill in Glendale, Rockefellas Bar in Corona, and Til-Two Club in San Diego along the way.
The band’s sound draws from a wide range of influences including Pink Floyd, The Beatles, Faith No Main, Alice In Chains, Type O Negative, and Metallica, blending progressive elements with heavy grooves and ethereal textures. Since their 2010 debut ‘Long Overdue’, A Good Rogering has built a catalog that includes 2013’s ‘Lifeblood’, the 2017 EP ‘This Is Death Metal’, and various singles released between 2018 and 2021. Their raw, no-frills live performances have earned them opening slots for Skid Row, Marty Friedman, Uli Jon Roth, Jared James Nichols, Firewind, Sponge, and Immortal Guardian. The combination of Manhatten’s versatile vocals and the band’s willingness to cross genre boundaries creates something that hits harder than most straight-ahead metal acts would dare to attempt. Currently working on their fourth full-length album at Evil Snail Studios with producer Kfir Gov, the band is also preparing to release a cover of Tool’s “Sweat”, recorded by engineer Jason Schimmel and mixed by renowned producer Sylvia Massy.
