In 1996, Bach formed a rock supergroup, the Last Hard Men, with Frogs guitarist Jimmy Flemion, The Breeders lead guitarist Kelley Deal, and The Smashing Pumpkins drummer Jimmy Chamberlin. The group recorded a full-length, self-titled album for Atlantic Records, who then optioned not to release it. In 1998, it was released on Kelley Deal's label, Nice Records, with no fanfare and a very limited pressing of 1000 CDs, which may have been sold via mail order only.
On November 28, 2001 Sebastian appeared at New York Steel, a benefit concert in response to 9/11. He appeared early in the show, left to perform on Broadway, and returned at the end when all performers gathered for a final song.
In October 2002, Sebastian was signed to perform in the national touring production of Jesus Christ Superstar and played the role of Jesus successfully in the show until April 2003, when he was fired for alleged diva-like behavior. He is currently working on a DVD version of VH1's Forever Wild that will be released in June.
Sometime in 2003, Sebastian tried out for Velvet Revolver before the band found Scott Weiland, but was turned down because, according to Slash, "We sounded like Skid Row!" Many fans of the band frequently express frustration that Bach was not selected because his vocal range would have allowed them to cover more GN'R songs during shows.
He has a role on the WB television show Gilmore Girls as Gil, the guitarist in Lane Kim's band. The other members of the band, all teenagers, initially objected to his age, but he proved to be a talented guitarist and remained in the band.
In 2005, Bach cooperated with Henning Pauly to be the singer on the Frameshift album called An Absence of Empathy which has been released in April 2005.
As of recently, and assumably at present, he still performs with his band, Sebastian Bach and the Bach Five, formerly noted as Sebastian Bach and Friends, who live with him, his wife, and children...recently documented on VH1...in a show called "I Married...Sebastian Bach", one of the "I Married..." series. Stars also included Dee Snider, of the rock band, Twisted Sister.
On May 12 and May 14, 2006 at Guns N' Roses' warm up show at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City, Sebastian joined Axl on stage for the song "My Michelle". He joined Axl and gang for a third time the following night (May 15) to sing "My Michelle" once again. He also joined them for their Pre-Download Festival show in the Apollo Hammersmith, London, singing My Michelle. Rose introduced Bach by saying that the two had rekindled their friendship in the previous week after 13 years of not speaking. On June 4, 9th & 11th he again joined Rose on stage at the 2006 Gods of Metal Festival (Milan), Download Festival in RDS Dublin and in Donington, respectively. He also appeared on several other tour dates during GN'R's European tour. On September 23, 2006, he joined Axl on stage once again at KROQ's Inland Invasion festival in California for a rendition of "My Michelle".
On July 30, 2006, Bach filled in for an ailing Axl Rose for “Nightrain” and the encore “Paradise City".
Bach starred with Ted Nugent, Evan Seinfeld, Jason Bonham and Scott Ian on the VH1 show "SuperGroup" as of May 2006. The musicians formed a band called Damnocracy for the reality show, during which they lived in a mansion in Las Vegas for twelve days and created music. During the show, he became particularly close to Ted Nugent, whom he looked to as a father figure. This was acknowledged several times on the show. He also appears to have developed good relationships with Evan Seinfeld. However, at a November 5 2006 Guns N' Roses concert in Huntington, West Virginia, Bach referred to a SuperGroup episode where he promised Ted he would quit drinking, and claimed that he had lied. He then went on to say, "Fuck Ted Nugent. He can go skin fucking baby seals in Canada, but I can't enjoy an American Budweiser? Fucking Ted Nugent!" and again at a December 4 show in Winnipeg, Manitoba stating, "You know how I promised Ted Nugent that I'd quit drinking? I fucking lied! He can go skin fucking baby seals, but I can't enjoy a fucking Labbatt's Blue?".Sebastian also said during the dec.7th show in Edmoton alberta "Us canadians like to have a drink once in a while right? Remember that one episode of super group where i stopped drinking? I LIED!" Bach had previously said that he had taken offense with disparaging comments Nugent had made about Dimebag Darrell.
In August 2006, Bach appeared in the upcoming seventh season of Trailer Park Boys. He is played himself and the part of a model railroad enthusiast, who happens to love da green! He has since appeared in several episodes of the 8th season as well, again playing himself in search of the best high!
On 13 September 2006, during a show at Selinas in Sydney, Bach stormed off stage during the encore. After two earlier similar incidents, Bach had warned the crowd that the throwing of any more plastic bottles and/or cans onto the stage would lead to him walking off. As the encore began (Youth Gone Wild), Bach was hit by a plastic cup, threw down the mic and left the stage.
On September 28, 2006, he appeared on Celebrity Duets singing with Hal Sparks. Bach later was on the road with Guns N' Roses, touring around the world until late 2006.
In 2007 he released the album 'Angel Down', which he worked on for the past seven years. The album contains a mix of rock and metal.
Stuck Inside
Sebastian Bach Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Everything I said that I want
And then you said, it's over
'Cause I'm stuck inside
'Cause I'm stuck inside
I'll take all you got
And then you said, it's over
'Cause I'm stuck inside
'Cause I'm stuck inside
I won't let you break away
I know your feelings change
From everything you said today
Peeling the layers of emotions away
I'm breaking down again, you'll see
I need just one more special thing
Now I, 1,2,3,4,5,6, I count away my time
All my live is empty, now I said, it's over
'Cause I'm stuck inside
'Cause I'm stuck inside
I'm stuck
inside
The lyrics of Sebastian Bach's Stuck Inside express feelings of being trapped and unable to break free from a situation. The lines "I feel you're taking on everything I said that I want" and "I'll take all you got and everything you said that I can't" suggest a struggle with trying to reconcile desires and limitations. The repeated refrain of "I'm stuck inside" further emphasizes the feelings of being trapped.
The song also explores themes of emotional vulnerability and the fear of losing someone. The lines "I won't let you break away, I know your feelings change" reveal a fear of abandonment and the struggle to hold onto a relationship. The line "peeling the layers of emotions away" suggests an attempt to understand and work through complex emotions.
Line by Line Meaning
I feel you're taking on
I sense that you're trying to bear the burden of everything I ask for
Everything I said that I want
All the things that I expressed as desires
And then you said, it's over
You announced the end of our relationship
'Cause I'm stuck inside
I feel trapped and unable to escape the situation
'Cause I'm stuck inside
I'm trapped within my own emotions
I'll take all you got
I'm willing to accept everything you can offer
And everything you said that I can't
Even the things you said were impossible for me to have
I won't let you break away
I refuse to let you leave me
I know your feelings change
I'm aware that your emotions are not constant
From everything you said today
Based on what you told me recently
Peeling the layers of emotions away
Gradually uncovering the complex layers of feelings that exist between us
I'm breaking down again, you'll see
I'm having an emotional breakdown yet again and you'll bear witness to it
I need just one more special thing
I'm looking for something else that's particularly important to me
Now I, 1,2,3,4,5,6, I count away my time
I'm counting down the hours until a particular deadline or event
All my live is empty, now I said, it's over
I feel that my life is devoid of meaning now that our relationship has ended
'Cause I'm stuck inside
I'm still feeling trapped and unable to move forward
'Cause I'm stuck inside
I'm still struggling with my own emotions and the aftermath of our relationship ending
I'm stuck
I'm completely immobilized and unable to make progress
