July 9, 2006, 18 years ago
SOLACE OF REQUIEM have posted the following message at their official website:
"Hope everyone had a great 4th of July! Just back from their second U.S. tour, SOR returns home to Virginia just before the holiday. The guys would like to thank all the wonderful people who made the tour possible. Thanks to all the venue owners and promoters for having SOR in their establishments and a big thanks to all the great bands that helped tear down the stages! Last but not least, a huge thank you goes to all the beautiful women who agreed to be photographed while wearing their favorite T-shirt. Please visit the new Pictures page for some cool pics from the Utopian Rebirth Tour 2006.Unfortunately, the June 2006 Tour will have been the last time out for founding father and guitarist Chris Young. Chris has left the band in pursuit of other goals. We all wish him the best of luck in realizing his dreams. He will be missed and remembered for his input, foresight, faith and passion for what we humans have summed up with only one word... MUSIC!!! Although he can never be replaced, SOR will continue their quest in Metal with some new blood in the band. Arrangements have been made for a back-up guitarist, but the band is still in the market for a permanent person to try and fill Chris' shoes. If anyone out there is interested in trying out for the band, please don't hesitate to drop us a line at info@solreq.com.
The new MP3s from the album Utopia Reborn are now available for download!!!
