Unified Theory’s Formation From Two Great Bands

Rock Online talked to Unified Theory members Christopher Thorne [ex Blind Melon] Dave Krusen [ex Pearl Jam] about the roots of their band. “We are trying extremely hard to separate because it’s just unfair to even compare the two. You just can’t take two guys from one band and say “Oh, it’s just like that other band”. I mean, it’s just unfair to the three other guys. It was a conscious effort when i first met Chris. Chris said , “Hey, you know, I don’t want to be the new singer for your band.” And I said great, I don’t want you to. This was never meant to be the continuation of Blind Melon. It’s a whole new project. We started the band that way and we continue to think that way.”
