MINDTECH Split With Singer; Seek Replacement
January 17, 2009, 15 years ago
Norwegian metallers MINDTECH, the band formerly known as BEYOND FLAMES and featuring CIRCUS MAXIMUS keyboardist Lasse Finbråten, have issued the following update:
"We had two great gigs in December, supporting the mighty VOLBEAT. Thanx to the Danes for treating us so well, and the the great audience. We had a blast!!These were, unfortunately, the last two gigs with our singer Aslak. So now is the time to thank him for his great contribution to the band, and to wish him all the best for his future plans. This is no dramatic split, and we are still great friends with Mr. Aslak.
One could say that scheduling conflicts is a reason, due to the fact that he is running a music-club, in addition to his musical career. So much to do, and sooo little time. Hopefully, we will still be working together, in one way or another, in the future. Wish him all the best..
Our guitar player, Thomas, also left the band. Just two days before the Volbeat gigs, so we had to carry on as a five-piece. That actually went on great, so we will not be looking for another guitar player until the singer situation is resolved.
So, there you have the latest from the Mindtech camp.
If you are a singer, male or female, and want to sing with Mindtech, please get in touch. Or if you have a tips on a suitable singer, get in touch also. We have an album ready for mix, with exception of the vocals, so if you're the one, email us ASAP!!!
