Grip Inc.
Grip Inc. is a band, and side project of Slayer's drummer Dave Lombardo. The band was formed in 1993, and they are currently signed to SPV Records.
Grip Inc is another one of the MOST UNDERRATED bands in metal. For how great they are as musicians and as a band, it is a shame Grip Inc never got as far as they deserved to.
The band has been on and off since it formed. Its future now seems uncertain due to drummer Dave Lombardo now returning as a full-time member of Slayer and the death of Gus Chambers.
Gus Chambers was found dead on 13 October 2008, his untimely death shocked and upset many fans. He will always be remembered as one of the greatest front man and lyricist of all time.
