JACK OWEN Explains Decision to Leave CANNIBAL CORPSE
May 3, 2004CANNIBAL CORPSE guitarist Jack Owen has issued the following statement regarding his decision to leave the group:
"After 15 years with CANNIBAL CORPSE, I've decided to leave the group. My heart just wasn't in it anymore, and it was reflected in my appearance on stage. Times change, and I just don't enjoy the music as much as I used to, and the only thing keeping me in the band was steady work, and the pay. These things makes it unfair to myself, my band members, and especially the fans.
"I'd like to thank all the members of CANNIBAL CORPSE, past and present, for sharing in the conquest of an entire genre of music. I wish the band continued success... I would especially like to thank the fans for being there for 15 years. Without you, I wouldn't have made it this far. Your dedication to death metal is unbelievable.
"I am going to continue in music, of course, with ADRIFT. I'd like to thank them for their patience and understanding, and support of my decision. We will meet again, I'm sure."
