LITVINTROLL bassist Aleh Klimchanka died on September 2 while preparing to take the stage with the band at the Mass Medium festival in the city of Gomel.
Klimchanka, who was 35 years old, also played in OSSUARY and PARTYZONE. He is survived by a wife and a three-year-old son.
Formed in 2005 by vocalist and bagpiper Andrei Apanovich and drummer Sjarhei Tapcheusky, LITVINTROLL spent about four years working on its debut album. The effort, "Rock'n'Troll", included several loose renditions of Belarusian folk songs and even more loose variations on medieval European and modern American songs telling stories of vagrant musicians lives, wooden trolls, mountain trolls and other kinds of trolls. However, the main thing the band tries to convey in its music is an atmosphere of reckless fun that the creatures who inspired the album like to have so much.
