Kai Hahto jää pois Swallow The Sunista
Nightwishin riveihin hiljattain liittynyt Kai Hahto jää yhtyeen velvotteiden takia pois Swallow The Sunin seuraavalta albumilta. Yhtye on nimennyt uudeksi rumpalikseen Juuso Raatikaisen. Voit lukea sekä yhtyeen, että Kain virallisen tiedotteen asiasta tästä:
Hi, guys. We are saddened to announce that Kai won’t be playing drums on the next Swallow the Sun release, or on upcoming tours. Kai’s job with Nightwish will take so much of his time, at least for the next couple of years, that we all have agreed that from now on it is better for the amazing Juuso Raatikainen to take on the drums officially. Kai is our brother, and will always be a member of Swallow the Sun, so he has not been kicked out, nor has he resigned, but now we have Juuso on board as well – no drama or other bullshit, just a bigger family.
Then, some better news: hopefully, we’ll soon be able to reveal you massive news about the next chapter of Swallow the Sun’s gloomy path. The music for the next Swallow the Sun release has been ready for over a year, but we are going to release something so huge, that to make this happen the negotiations with Spinefarm have also taken a year. We are very close to getting into an agreement on both sides, and then we can, finally, enter the studio. This is something that not many bands have done before – not in Finland, and not often in the whole world – but, until we get the green light to hit the studio and start recording this opus, the secret will hold. Godspeed
