PRIMAL FEAR have issued the following update:
"Please note, that both Stefan Leibing and Klaus Sperling will perform with Primal Fear at the 10th anniversary concert in Reichenbach at H2O and will be on stage for some special songs including a meet & greet. This will be a very emotional and unique moment for us all!"Earlier today it was reported that guitarist Stefan Leibing has announced his departure from Primal Fear. His statement reads as follows:
"Dear Primal Fear fans, after 10 years being in Primal Fear I have decided to take a time out from the music business for some time. I do this for my family, especially for my two little sons, who deserve to have more time together with their father. Of course this is no easy decision, even if I know this is the right one. I leave the guys from Primal Fear in friendship and want to thank them at this point for their understanding and supporting me in this decision. I also want to thank you fans for a wonderful time during the last years! I say good-bye to you, having in mind, that this will NOT be a good-bye forever!"Primal Fear added: "Well it’s hard to see the curtain fall for a friend and a great player after ten years standing side by side. We have all respect for Stefan’s decision. We were realizing the problems he went through the entire last year . He will be missed as a character and a great guitar player. There’s an open door for Stefan in Primal Fear and we're working on the possibility, that Stefan will contribute a typical Stefan style song to our forthcoming album! Good luck Stefan to you and your family! We will announce our new guitar player tomorrow!"
