ENTOMBED: U.K. Tour Postponed
August 11, 2006Long-running Swedish metallers ENTOMBED were forced to postpone their previously announced U.K. tour (originally scheduled to take place in September) due to "various reasons." "We will reschedule the tour to get GOOD time for promotion and get the right, meaningful support, when the [new full-length] record is out," the group writes in a statement. "We hope you are with us! We are very sorry for the inconvenience."
ENTOMBED recently issued an EP, entitled "When in Sodom", via Threeman Recordings. A full-length CD, "Serpent Saints", will follow on September 18.
ENTOMBED's new album was recorded at Soundland studio in Upplands Väsby, Sweden. The CD will be the group's first without the contributions of guitarist Uffe Cederlund, who left the band in September 2005.
As exclusively reported by BLABBERMOUTH.NET on May 12, drummer Peter Stjärnvind has left ENTOMBED in order to concentrate on his membership in the Swedish cult act NIFELHEIM. NIFELHEIM guitarist Sebastian Ramstedt (a.k.a. Vengeance from Beyond; also in NECROPHOBIC) told BLABBERMOUTH.NET, "No bad breakup or anything personal between him/us and the guys in ENTOMBED, but heavy touring didn't fit his situation right now." ENTOMBED is currently utilizing the services of session drummer Olle Dahlstedt (ALPHA SAFARI, ex-MISERY LOVES CO.) for all of its upcoming European gigs. Stjärnvind and his wife recently welcomed their first child, a daughter.
