ELENIUM Part Ways With Guitarists
June 6, 2007, 17 years ago
Finnish metallers ELENIUM have issued the following update:
"Both guitar players have decided to leave Elenium due to the lack of motivation towards the band. Kasperi has decided to concentrate on his own band MERGING FLARE and his other projects. His true passion is to play heavy metal with the strong 80`s vibe. We appreciate his ambitions and honesty. A band needs to have everyones 100% dedication to work.Tommi will concentrate on other things in life after some eight years of elelife. He just lost the motivation in touring and rehearsing since it's not all that glamorous as they tell in the TV. Tommi already took some time off from playing live last spring/summer. His duties were well handled by a guy called Ville Leppänen from DISORDEAD. There are no hard feelings involved and we're all still good friends. Of course we're sad to lose two great musicians and friends from our crew but we are also looking forward anxiously for yet another new beginning. It's not the first time we're going through some line up changes and each time we've come back stronger. We have already a lot of ideas for our next release and we`re also booking shows for autumn/winter '07. It's already been confirmed we'll do a mini-tour in Finland with KALMAH in December."
