about
Adrenaline Mob is a band featuring former Dream Theater drummer Mike Portnoy, Symphony X frontman Russell Allen, guitar virtuoso Mike Orlando (Sonic Stomp), bassist Paul DiLeo and Stuck Mojo/Fozzy axeman Rich Ward. The Hit The Wall Songfacts reports that Adrenaline Mob's first live performance was on June 24, 2011 at the Hiro Ballroom in New York City and they released a YouTube video of a cover version of Black Sabbath 's "The Mob Rules " three days later. Their self-titled and self-produced debut EP was released on August 9, 2011. The band has posted audio samples from its upcoming debut album on their Facebook page. John Moyer (Disturbed) joined the band in 2012 as the new bassist after DiLeo and Ward left.
