The repercussions were instantaneous and devastating; press and consumers alike burned the band in effigy as an utter sellout, and what was expected to be a triumphant world tour turned into a protracted, embarrassing agony for all involved.
Fischer would avoid the spotlight completely for the next few years before resurfacing in the late '90s with a new band called Apollyon Sun, but when this too ground to a halt amid widespread public indifference, he once again connected with Martin Ain, and quietly set about planning Celtic Frost's resurrection.

 Celtic Frost Biography/Discography
Thomas Gabriel Fischer was the product of a broken home and a less than financially secure upbringing -- a rare predicament in his native Switzerland, but one that instilled in him the burning ambition and outcast mentality usually required in the formative years of a rock star.
Fresh out of high school, the teenager was enamored with the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, and particularly high-energy, proto-thrash trios like Raven and Venom.
Inspired by the movement's do-it-yourself credo, Fischer renamed himself Tom Warrior, and along with bassist Steve Warrior and drummer Bruce Day, formed his first band, Hellhammer, in the fall of 1982.

Switzerland's Celtic Frost may or may not release their forthcoming reunion album, according to a recent post by frontman Thomas Gabriel Fischer.
Here's what Fischer had to say on the group's message board at www.celticfrost.com: "We, the original line-up of CF, have written and are working on what we feel is the best music since 1987's ITP album, and we are working with partners in the music industry to make an appropriate release of this material possible."
If, in fact, what Fischer says above is true, fans may not see Celtic Frost in a live setting, despite what is largely rumored to be a much-anticipated reunion tour.

Granted it took them — or more specifically guitarist/vocalist Fischer and bassist/creative partner Martin Eric Ain — a decade to get back on said line, but when one’s been through what these guys have been through, the wait is understandable.
While Fischer managed to right the ship, at least musically, by bringing back Ain for 1990’s respectable Vanity/Nemesis, the magic was gone and and Celtic Frost was done, or so it would seem.
Fischer quit music entirely, emerging after three years of traveling and soul-searching with the electro-metal band Apollyon’s Sun.

After all, former Celtic Frost mainman Thomas Gabriel Fischer (Warrior while in Celtic Frost, and Warrior to me) has long maintained that his work in Apollyon Sun (his post-Frost band) banished the possibility of a Celtic Frost reunion, and thus an interview.
For a man who once fronted one of the most daring, innovative and extravagant metal bands ever to grace this planet, Thomas Gabriel Warrior (as he will be from now on be referred to) comes across as surprisingly down to earth and unpretentious.
