In 2006, Padden co-founded the industrial thrash metal band Silent Strain, performing only as the vocalist, although little is known about the current status of the band.
Padden joined Canadian metal band Terror Syndrome as lead vocalist in 2008.
On June 2, 2015, it was announced that Padden had resigned from Annihilator in December 2014.[2]
Padden currently works as a performer at the Roxy in Vancouver BC.
Equipment
[edit]Padden has been seen using the Explorer model guitar, made by RAN Guitars, at Annihilator live events and it has been assumed that he's recorded with these same guitars. Once bandmate Jeff Waters left RAN Guitars, so did Padden. Instead of playing Epiphone's, after this, he's now a Dean endorser and plays both Deceiver and Z models. He's been seen using an Epiphone Prophecy Futura Ex custom with Seymour Duncan pickups.
