Drummer Magnus "Adde" Andreasson, who played drums for Hardcore Superstar from 1999 – 2024, has called it quits. 

The Swedish rockers posted the following comment on social media: 

"We are sorry to announce that Adde has made the decision to leave Hardcore Superstar to pursue other challenges. Our full statement is below but rest assured this is not the end, we’re working hard on new music and can’t wait to see you all at the upcoming shows.
Martin, Jocke & Vic"

Magnus "Adde" Andreasson also shared the news via social media. An excerpt from his announcement reads:

"My main focus for the last 25 years has been to write songs, rehearse, record, tour like a maniac and push the band I’m in forward. This is a goal we all shared and I’m proud of everything we’ve achieved.

It’s been an unbelievable journey with a lot of ups and very few downs. Every dream I’ve had as a musician has been fulfilled.

One of many things I’m proud of is that we never did it for fame or money, staying true to ourselves and writing our type of songs was always our main priority.

I’m also proud of how we used to push and torture ourselves just to become a good live act. We used to play the whole set as a warmup in the dressing room before our show and we continued to do so for many years.

However, I’ve now taken the hard decision to step out of my comfort zone and leave the band because I need to challenge myself again. It’s both scary and exciting to break away from that safe place I’ve had for so long. I will always support the guys and I love them like brothers. They are really good people."

In January 2024, Hardcore Superstar revealed the following:

"We have a big year ahead of us with multiple tours and festival appearances being lined up, as well as a new single and album in the works! First up we’re setting sail on the legendary Monsters of Rock Cruise out of Miami on March 2nd, then we come home for a headlining Swedish tour in anticipation of our first single scheduled for release in the Spring! More dates and announcements coming soon!!"
