AGATHODAIMON Parts Ways With Guitarist, Announces Replacement

August 16, 2010

German black/death/gothic metallers AGATHODAIMON have parted ways with guitarist Jan Jansohn "due to musical and personal differences" and have replaced him with Thilo Feucht. The band states, "[Thilo's] no unknown musician to our fans; you will know him from various contributions and guest appearances he had on 'Chapter III' [2001] and 'Serpent's Embrace' [2004], back then under the nick name of Azrael. He has also joined us on stage several times in the past since 'Chapter III', and already for our recent gigs we had in Austria and Germany.

"We're proud that he joined our ranks as full member now, and look forward to working on our sixth album together.

"Speaking of album No. six, for which we can announce the working title 'In Darkness...' It will be a step back to our roots, girls and boys!

"A studio date is scheduled for early 2011. More news to come soon."

AGATHODAIMON's latest album, "Phoenix", was released in March 2009 via Massacre Records. The follow-up to "Serpent's Embrace" marked the debut of the band's new vocalist, Chris "Ashtrael" Bonner, who joined the group in 2008.

Professionally filmed video footage of AGATHODAIMON performing the song "Tongue Of Thorns" at the Winternachtstraum Festival on February 28, 2009 in Arnsberg-Oeventrop, Germany can be viewed below.
