MOURNING CARESS Find New Guitarist; Reveal New Album Title
March 30, 2011, 13 years ago
Münster, Germany-based melodic death metal/rock act MOURNING CARESS have issued the following update:
"We finally found a new guitarist and can officially call ourselves a five-piece again. The new guy is named Wolfgang "Sandman“ Sander, a skilled guitar player and insane metalhead. He joined the band directly after the recordings of the new album were completed. So you naturally can't hear him on the new output.
In the meantime he got introduced to our friends and families on a very intimate and private gig we played in our rehearsal room some weeks ago. It was a blast! Please check our new Facebook site for some pictures of the event here.
We're also happy to unveil the title of our third album - Deep Wounds. Bright Scars.
As mentioned above the recordings are done and we are now facing the mixing stage, the mastering is due in April or May. Once this all is finished we need to find a suitable label to release Deep Wounds. Bright Scars. The result is sure enough a heavy and very intensive yet melancholic piece of metal which makes us proud to the bone. We can't wait to share the first songs with you, it's only a matter of time..."
Mourning Caress issued the following message on January 7th, 2011:
"On December 29th, 2010 our friend and longtime guitarist Benedikt Bjarnason died.He stepped out of the band in January, 2009 due to many obligations, mainly work-related. In spring 2010 he was diagnosed with cancer. But in spite of his positive attitude, distinctive humour, courage and immense will to defeat the disease, he lost this battle.
We will never forget you.
Rest In Peace, brother. See you on the other side!"
Benedikt Kristofer Bjarnason (1978 - 2010)
