Former Extreme guitarist Nuno Bettencourt has parted ways with Satellite Party – the new project led by Perry Farrell (ex-Jane’s Addiction, Porno for Pyros) – due to the fact that “although I am very proud of the music and production of “Ultra Payloaded” (the band’s debut effort), I have always felt uncomfortable with the direction of the line-up and live show. I truly do believe in the songs and music on the album, and I wish Perry Farrell and any musician that remains on tour all the best.”
