Editing W.A.S.P. (band) (section)

===Reunion with Chris Holmes (1996–2001)===
Chris Holmes returned to W.A.S.P. in 1996 and together they released ''[[Kill Fuck Die|Kill.Fuck.Die]]'' (1997) and ''[[Helldorado (album)|Helldorado]]'' (1999).<ref name="LarkinHR"/> They also recorded two live albums from these tours, ''[[Double Live Assassins]]'' and ''[[The Sting: Live at the Key Club L.A.|The Sting]]'' respectively. ''The Sting'' CD and DVD were taken directly from an experimental webcast that Lawless claims to have had no control over. This release angered him as he was unhappy with the sound and picture quality.

The band continued with the album ''[[Unholy Terror]]'' in 2001. Holmes left the band once again that year, stating that he wanted to "play the blues". He hooked up with fellow ex-W.A.S.P. member Randy Piper's band Animal, but soon dropped out of that project also. Holmes, for his part, has claimed he never played on ''Unholy Terror''.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.blabbermouth.net/news/former-w-a-s-p-guitarist-blackie-lawless-is-a-liar/ |title=Former W.A.S.P.
