CANCER Part Ways With Guitarist

September 14, 2004

Reunited U.K. death metallers CANCER have parted ways with guitarist Rob Engvikson following the completion of their recent European tour dates. "This was a totally amicable decision by both parties," reads a posting on the group's web site.

Commented CANCER drummer Carl Stokes: "There is no malice between the band and Rob, and we wish him well with his ASATRU project, and we'll see him down the pub for a beer."

Stokes and CANCER guitarist/vocalist John Walker will spend the next few months writing material for a new full-length album, tentatively due in 2005 through Copro Records.

CANCER recently issued their comeback EP, "Corporation$", through Copro. Included on the effort was the group's cover version of the CELTIC FROST classic "Dethroned Emperor".
