FROM REPULSION:
With sadness in our hearts we bid farewell to our friend, Jim Auten.
Jim was the original drummer in the band (Tempter) that would eventually evolve into Repulsion. His incredible prowess on the drums at such an early age was instrumental in getting our act out of the garage and onto the stage. He was a great drummer, a brilliant artist and a very funny, intelligent and kind friend. As fellow musicians, we were all in awe of Jim’s talents and we will miss him dearly.
