Radikale Umgestaltung bei COUNT RAVEN

Kommentieren
Im Hause COUNT RAVEN platzte heute eine Bombe. Sänger und Gitarrist Dan Fondelius (Foto) gibt bekannt, dass nach zweieinhalb Jahren Reunion Bassist Wilbur und Schlagzeuger Renfield die Band verlassen haben und durch Fredrik Jansson (ex-Abramis Brama) am Bass, und Jens Bock (ex-Doomsday Gouvernment) an den Drums ersetzt werden. Als Hauptgrund gibt er an, dass man nicht mehr in der Lage gewesen sei, gemeinsam an einem Strang zu ziehen.
Um die Vision von COUNT RAVEN am Leben zu erhalten, sei die Umbesetzung nötig gewesen. Momentan probt das neue Line-up für den Gig beim Bang Your Head und für ein neues Album.
Hier Dans Statement im Original-Wortlaut:
"COUNT RAVEN has after two and a half years decided to go through some changes. There are a number of reasons for this: The main one's due to problems working in one direction, due to lack of interest and bad communication. Another one is simply that the old magic wasn't there anymore. This is not a new thing, it happens to a lot of bands that reunite, and for some reason they can't find that old mojo working.
In order to keep the old RAVEN-magic, we have some new people in the band who have the ability to keep that very magic. And that's the main thing. You got to stay true to your music, your fans and to your dream! The guys that will help out to make this dream work and who are replacing Wilbur and Renfield are: Fredrik Jansson (ex-Abramis Brama) on bass, and Jens Bock (ex-Doomsday Gouvernment) on drums. We have already finished the set-list for the Bang Your Head-Festival, and it will include a few surprises.
Also we are rehearsing on new material for a possible new album, and so far it sounds extremely promising. We want to thank everybody that believed in us in the past, as well those that do now. We won't let you down!
The Raven flies on...
Dan Fondelius (February 10th 2006)"
