Oulu, Finland-based metallers GHOST MACHINERY have issued the following update:
"The new frontman for the band is Taage Laiho. He’s also a vocalist of a well known Finnish band KILPI and you might know his work on two ALTARI albums. Taage’s vocals can be heard on Divinity and The Fallen Empire albums and he also made an extensive European tour with the band in 2006. Kilpi band just released their 5th album, Pirun Merta, and at the moment Kilpi is touring in Finland. Ghost Machinery was formed by a Pete Ahonen (BURNING POINT) in 2002 and they released their debut album, Haunting Remains, in December 2004. It was highly praised in the media all over the world and it gained lots of great reviews as well as huge amount of interviews was made during the time of the release.It might seem to the public that not much activity, but the band has been very active 'beneath' the surface and the guys have been in and out from the studio recording the second album Out For Blood. Also the band is very happy that although Taage is a newest member he was able to put his 'mark' on the record. Obviously with his great singing but also lyrically he was very much involved.
Currently the band is putting finishing touches to the Out For Blood album and their plan is to release a single at the end of this year."
