Line 11:
In case you missed [[Revolving Door Band|the pattern]], the vocalist changed again in September 2010, with Peter Ellis (previously involved with the band The More I See) replacing Gremio. Peter Ellis left the band in February 2011 because of organizational difficulties, with none other than Wyatt Anderson making a glorious comeback. [[And the Fandom Rejoiced]]... though not for long. Just a couple months later, Anderson left again, with Gremio returning as a stand-in singer on the on-going tour.
 
The second studio album, ''Flying Tigers'', was released in September 2011. Recorded with just Leon ([[One -Man Band|playing all the guitars]]), Anderson (before he left), Durst and the band's producer Ralph Patlan participating, ''Flying Tigers'' turned out to be a semi-[[Concept Album]]. Its first six tracks are unconnected songs but the second half (''Starman's Child'') follows an overarching plot written by Leon, which involves [[Ancient Astronauts]], [[Alien Invasion|Alien Invasions]], and humanity [[Turned Against Their Masters|turning on its secret masters]], with the [[Backstory]] additionally [[All There in the Manual|explained in the lyrics booklet]].
 
The current band lineup is:
Line 49:
* [[Hell-Bent for Leather]]: The band's default outfits are ripe with leather.
* [[A Hell of a Time]]
* [[Hot -Blooded]]: Most of their lyrics.
* [[Mascot]]: The eponymous White Wizzard, a horned white-bearded [[Cool Old Guy]] from their album covers. Bonus points for having been originally designed by Derek Riggs, the creator of [[Iron Maiden (Music)|Iron Maiden]]'s Eddie the Head.
* [[Metal Scream]]: "Heading Out To The Highway" opens with one. Well, duh, it's a cover of a [[Judas Priest (Music)|Judas Priest]] song...
