More about ANGEL and TEAM CYBERGEIST:
Team Cybergeist is a collaborative music project founded by Angel Bartolotta, drummer for the band Dope (Koch Records/E1 Music).
With Team Cybergeist, Angel writes and records with many different musicians from all around the world. Members of Shinedown, Stone Sour, Morbid Angel, Saliva, Kittie, Adema, Static-X, Coal Chamber, Stabbing Westward, Pigface, Dark New Day, Godhead, PIG, Psyclon Nine, The Dreaming, Amen, Soil, KMFDM, and many others have all contributed to the project. Angel also brings in local musicians, giving them the opportunity to write and record with some of their favorite musicians. Platinum selling artists and virtually unknown musicians, all performing together as one.
For live shows and events, Angel Bartolotta has hand picked members of the studio lineup, as well as some new blood, to put together a strong team of talented musicians to play and perform the music of Team Cybergeist. The live band consists of bassist Sally Debauchery, guitarists Jason Schmidt and Rick Ace, and singer Cassandra Calo. Angel lays down the backbone as the band's live drummer as well as running samples, synths, and loops. To keep in the collaborative nature of the project, special guests are often added to the live lineup.
Since 2009, Team Cybergeist has been headlining their own tours as well as playing shows in support of bands like Alice In Chains, Limp Bizkit, Godsmack, Buckcherry, Sevendust, Dope, Puddle Of Mudd, Hellyeah, Smile Empty Soul, Genitorturers, Slick Idiot, Anew Revolution, Crossbreed, Psychostick, Lords Of Acid, Hed PE, and Mushroomhead to name a few.
After 4 years of production, Angel wrapped up the Team Cybergeist album "How To Destroy Something Beautiful". The 18 track CD was released in Japan (RB Records) on November 18, 2009. For it's first week on the shelves, it was #1 at the Tower Records listening stations (above Rammstein, Flyleaf, and Slayer). On July 10, 2010, Team Cybergeist independently released "How To Destroy Something Beautiful" in the United States. The USA edition is a 26 track double-disc featuring over 50 artists!
In a recent interview, Angel Bartolotta said, "In a music scene constrained by ruthless competition and heightened egoism, it is exciting to lead a team of humble musicians from a diversity of backgrounds who willingly compose for the love of music. This project is a collaborative effort, meant to unite the scene and break down the hierarchical nature of the music industry."

Team Cybergeist is endorsed by DW Drums, PDP Drums, Zildjian Cymbals, ProMark Drumsticks, Evans Drumheads, Pintech Electronics, Westone In-Ear Monitors, Steve Clayton Guitar Picks, Pick Guy Guitar Picks, Grover Allman Guitar Picks, Tsunami Cables, and TK Audio Guitar Cabs.
