I KILLED THE PROM QUEEN Calls It Quits

April 8, 2007

Australian metallers I KILLED THE PROM QUEEN have called it a day. In a statement announcing their decision to go separate ways, the band write, "The final nail in the coffin came when Jona was asked to join USA metal group BLEEDING THROUGH as second guitarist. This, coupled with our inability to find a replacement vocalist, aided the decision to end the band.

"We would all like to sincerely thank all our friends and family and our label's Stomp, Metal Blade, Golf and Howling Bull Records for their ongoing support of IKTPQ and most of all we would like to thank all the fans that made the last seven years the most amazing years of our lives. We feel that we made a good impact on the Australian and worldwide music scenes. We also apologise for the cancellation of our USA tour dates.

"The band will announce a final farewell Australian tour in the coming months."

I KILLED THE PROM QUEEN's latest CD, "Music for the Recently Deceased", was released in the U.S. last November via Metal Blade Records.

"Music for the Recently Deceased" was recorded in Sweden with famed metal producers Fredrik Nordström and Patrik J. Sten (IN FLAMES, SOILWORK, AT THE GATES).
