FIFTH ANGEL Drummer Quits

May 13, 2011

Drummer Jeffrey McCormack has announced his departure from reunited '80s metal cult act FIFTH ANGEL.

Said McCormack in a statement: "I want to thank all of the incredible FIFTH ANGEL fans all over the world that were so accepting of me as I stepped into the huge gap left by the extraordinary Ken Mary when FIFTH ANGEL reunited in February of 2010.

"FIFTH ANGEL were my heroes since 1987, and it was an honor to be a part of their first-ever performance at Germany's Keep It True festival last year [see video below], but sadly, some things just aren't meant to be.

"It is extremely difficult to leave something I dreamed for many years of joining, but I believe it is for the best.

"I have no immediate commitments, but am definitely looking for the right opportunity to get back out there and rock with you all again [as soon as possible].

"My best wishes to FIFTH ANGEL in their future endeavors."

In addition to FIFTH ANGEL, Jeffrey McCormack was the drummer for HEIR APPARENT and NIGHTSHADE.
