LORD BELIAL Parts Ways With Guitarist

September 18, 2006

Sweden's LORD BELIAL has parted ways with guitarist Hjalmar Nielsen. "No search for another guitarist will take place, from now on LORD BELIAL will continue with only three members," reads a posting on the group's web site. "A statement from Hjalmar will soon be published as well."

In other news, LORD BELIAL will play at the Linköping Metal Massacre II, set to take place October 28 at Skylten in Linköping, Sweden.

LORD BELIAL recently entered Los Angered studio (owned by KING DIAMOND guitarist Andy La Rocque) outside Gothenburg to begin recording its seventh full-length album, entitled "Revelation". A late 2006 release via Regain Records is expected.

LORD BELIAL's sixth full-length album, "Nocturnal Beast", was released last November via Regain . The follow-up to 2004's "The Seal of Belial" was recorded at Los Angered.

"The Seal of Belial" received its long-overdue U.S. release on September 20, 2005 via Candlelight Records USA.
