New MNEMIC Singer Says He Will Do Things His Way
September 16, 2005Newly recruited MNEMIC frontman Tony Jelencovich — formerly of TRANSPORT LEAGUE and B-THONG — has issued the following statement regarding the recent announcement that he was joining the Danish group as the replacement for frontman Michael Bøgballe:
"Hi, all you metalheads. I'm very flattered to have been asked to join the band! And now I'm fucking in! It will be a ride, my friends!!!!!
"The MNEMIC guys have been friends of mine [for] a few years now, and I've always liked the guys and their music. I know that there will be a lot of wonderings around people: 'Will this guy really make it!?' And for sure I will. But I will do this my way and I will NOT BE A COPY OF MICHAEL! It will be different!!!
For the people who don't know, I've been singing for several (!) years and have a shitload of stage experience since my days with B-THONG and TRANSPORT LEAGUE and my current project: M.A.N!
"I'm very excited about it all! See you on the road, guys!
"P.S.: I also would like to wish Michael the best for the future. Take care of that upcoming kid good, OK :) !! Love you, brother!"

MNEMIC are continuing to tour in support of their sophomore album, "The Audio Injected Soul", which was released in September 2004 via Nuclear Blast Records. The follow-up to 2003's "Mechanical Spin Phenomena" was recorded at AntFarm Studios in Aarhus, Denmark with producer Tue Madsen.
Jelencovich's M.A.N project — which was formed out of the ashes of TRANSPORT LEAGUE — will make their live debut on Friday, September 16 at Sticky Fingers in Gothenburg, Sweden.
