ARCTURUS Part Ways With Singer

January 5, 2005

Vocalist Øyvind Hægeland has left ARCTURUS, according to a posting on the group's official web site. No reason was given for his departure.

As previously reported, ARCTURUS have been confirmed for Norway's Inferno Metal Festival 2005, set to take place March 24-25 at the Rockefeller and John Dee venues in Oslo. ARCTURUS are also scheduled to perform at the Inferno Festival kick-off event at the Underworld in London on January 27. It is presently unclear if Hægeland's departure will affect the band's participation in either event.
