ROCKSTORY
"(World War III (WWIII) BIOGRAPHY)"
"World War III, a heavy metal outfit was formed when Tracey Lion moved to Los Angeles, California, in 1986. He caught the attention of manager Don Arden, who signed a contract with him. With the help of Arden he began auditioning celebrity players to create the line-up of the new World War III. The chosen line-up was Jimmy Bainon Bass, Vinny Appice behind the drum Kit , and Joe Floyd, who had played with Warrior; at the time, Floyd had other obligations and Tracy G was chosen to fill Floyd's spot. In 1990, World War III released their debut self-titled album and soon thereafter began extensive touring. Vinny Appice was replaced with James Kottak, who would in turn be replaced by Mikkey Dee. Things changed when Steve Jones, the A&R Director for WWIII, tried to depict an image on the band as Nazis, which caused Lion to rebel against the label. Heavy friction and disagreements between band members began when he started a side project with George Lynch on Elektra Records. These problems weighed heavily on Lion and eventually caused him to step back and put WWIII on hold. In 2003 Lion reformed WWIII and signed with Sony Records and released their first album in 12 years, When God Turned Away. On April 18, 2004, Vinny Appice and Jimmy Bain had a jam session with Lion during WWIII's concert at the Key Club in West Hollywood, California. The session was video taped and some of the scenes were placed in the music video for "Walk With Me". In the summer of 2004, original members, Vinny Appice and Jimmy Bain rejoined the band. WWIII performed at the Metal Sludge concert number nine in Tarzana, California on September 18, 2004. The newly reformed WWIII with Appice, Bain, Lion, and Scaria, performed in Bakersfield, California on October 30, 2004. On April 19, 2008, the original line-up of WWIII reunited. Mandy Lion is currently writing with George Lynch (Dokken, Lynch Mob) on a full-length album. The current line-up consists of Dan McNay (Montrose), Lez Warner (The Cult) and Toni Aleman. Guest appearances include Sin Quirin (Ministry), Mitch Perry (Edgar Winter, Cher), Roy Z (Halford, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden) and others. "
