Vyndykator
The origins of Vyndykator trace back to another New Jersey band,
Attacker.
An eighties outfit, Attacker had been disbanded for many years, but
in 2001 two different lineups were formed touting themselves as the
reformed Attacker, one led by vocalist Bob Mitchell and the other
led by other former members.
After some rumblings about which band was the real Attacker,
the Mitchell-led group decided to change name, and Vyndykator was
officially born.
In due time a debut album,
Heaven Sent From Hell, was released.
Very much an 80's-inspired album and in fact not too far removed
from prime Attacker in style,
Heaven is enjoyable enough though
a bit rough around the edges.
As it turns out, the Attacker members resolved their differences,
with the result being that Mitchell joined the now-officially-reformed
Attacker.
At the time the band stated they would continue, but little has been
heard from them since, save the unfortunate passing of one of
their guitarists.
