Two (2)

After the break-up of his previous band Fight, Rob Halford began work on a new musical project with John Lowery (aka John 5 of [url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/Marilyn+Manson]Marilyn Manson[/url] fame), titled "Gimp". They would record an album's worth of demos together. While attending Mardi Gras in New Orleans, Halford would meet [url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/Trent+Reznor]Trent Reznor[/url]. He gave Reznor a copy of the demos, and in turn, Reznor ended up coming in as producer and releasing it under his [url=http://www.discogs.com/label/Nothing+Records]Nothing[/url] label. Upon discovering another band was already using the name "Gimp", the project was redubbed "2wo". After a headlining tour, the live band all parted ways and Lowery left to join Manson. Rob Halford initially started demos for a follow-up album, but eventually called the project quits. He used the rough material he'd recorded for his next project, simply titled "Halford" - a return to the metal genre he was famous for.
