OFFICIUM TRISTE Announce Lineup Change
March 20, 2008, 16 years ago
Netherlands-based death metallers OFFICIUM TRISTE have issued the following update:
"Once again we can inform you about a change within Officium Triste's lineup.After much thought Martin has decided to quit drumming and start focusing on the synth-parts. As one of the main composers he has always had a big influence on the music and especially the synths. So, from now on he'll be doing the synths and he keeps on writing music.
His decision has a lot to do with the fact he's living in Germany and he feels he cannot deliver what is needed for the band when talking about rehearsing and doing live gigs. Therefore, Martin has decided to switch to synths exclusively. This will give the band much more opportunities and we're happy to see Martin in this setting.
We are also very happy to announce that all drum duties will be taken over by Ronald Lagerwaard (ex-IMBOLC, ABSENT MIND, PERPETUAL MISERY) from now on. He has proven to be a great drummer and is very motivated to be part of the tight rhythm section for Officium Triste."
