Bias?

"Troy has mastered it all"? That sounds a bit silly. What, is he? A pokemon master or something?

Session Musician

What criteria are we observing for this? For instance, does it have something to do with how prevalent his playing was--like if he was the only guitarist that the band used--? I know that he played on the track 'Fall Again' by Professional Murder Music, but from the sounds of it, he was only playing a lead part. It is listed here on his IMDB page: [1]. I've also read an interview with Roman Marisak of Professional Murder Music in which he states that the song needed Troy's style (in as many words). I don't remember where it was, but if I find it I will post a link. Should we add this information in the Session Musician section? Miuq (talk) 22:53, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Doesn't make sense

The chronology of this part makes no sense.

After touring to support the album the band headed back into the studio to record the follow up in July 2006. In July 2007, Troy reported that the band had written new material that was, "still in its infancy"[12] which Homme later suggested might be released as an EP. This matured into their 2007 release Era Vulgaris to which Van Leeuwen contributed a significant amount of material. .... Era Vulgaris was completed in early April 2007[16] and released in June 2007 in the U.S.[17] The tracks "Sick, Sick, Sick" and "3's & 7's" were released as singles in early June.

How could he report in July 2007 about an album that was released the month before? Someone has their facts wrong. AC (talk) 16:34, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
