Brazilian power/progressive metal act, SupreMa, who has been establishing themselves worldwide with their recent release, announces changes in their lineup. Lead vocalist Pedro Nascimento and drummer Fernando Castanha are no longer part of the band - the change happens due to musical differences.

To continue the Traumatic Scenes tour, the band announces the return of drummer Helmut Quacken, who had been in the band from 2008 to 2011 and did three tours with them in the North/Northeast of Brazil, and also recorded the Traumatic Scenes album. Helmut is known for his great ability and creativity that he has demonstrated also in other bands such as Glory Opera and Dominus Praelli.

To take over as the new voice of SupreMa, Diogo Noleto was recruited, a new guy on the scene who has, however, brought to the band a powerful voice with the feeling that progressive metal requires.

Guitarist and band founder Douglas Jen states: "I can only thank the former members for the good moments and wish them good luck in their career. Many times our lives point at different paths and basically that's what happened. For the past few months SupreMa has been working day and night for this second leg of the tour in support of the album and I'm extremely happy and motivated with this new lineup. We took new breath, new energies, people with "blood in the eyes", willing to lift SupreMa's name and also Brazilian metal even higher all over the world, and that's what I can say SupreMa is today, a team that's totally focused on work and with a lot of fuel for the next steps.

"I'm thrilled to have Helmut back in the band, last year he played a show with us in Manaus without one rehearsal whatsoever and it was amazing, the chemistry that we have when we're playing is scary! I'm also happy with Diogo Noleto joining us, a simple and charismatic guy who will surely enchant every fan of the band right away. He's an amazing singer that got me and the whole band and crew amazed even before his first audition with us. His voice is HUGE and I have no doubts it will surprise all fans of the band. Be it in the heavy parts, be it with his clean voice or even the feeling progressive metal needs, he surprises during each second of the song. He has an unique voice and I wish for every fan enjoying with us this new Brazilian talent. With these guys full of fire we will climb the next steps we are aiming for."

The band has its lineup debut performance scheduled and will announce the date and location in the next few days.

"We are super excited about this new stage and new cycle, this year when SupreMa has its 10th anniversary is a very special year and we are preparing a few releases with this new lineup, we can't wait to be able to announce the news and show the fans the new sound that's coming ahead", says bassist Fabio Carito.

Soon SupreMa will announce more great news in celebration of their 10th anniversary, fans have no idea what's coming for them so stay tuned.

The tour in support of the new album has begun and the band has already visited important cities like São Paulo, Manaus and Maceio. As of right now they are booking dates for the second leg of the tour with the new scenario and structure that is travelling around Brazil.
