PYRAMAZE Is 'Very Confident' In Band's Future Following Singer Departure
November 10, 2006Danish metallers PYRAMAZE have vowed to carry on following the departure of vocalist Lance King (ex-BALANCE OF POWER). The band parted ways with King this week due to "personal and professional reasons," according to a posting on the group's web site.
"This split might come as a shock to our fans, but be assured that PYRAMAZE is very much alive and well," the band says. "In fact the songwriting for our third album has already begun, and as always Michael Kammeyer [guitar] is responsible for the songwriting. As you may remember, the music was all recorded for the first disc, before Lance was brought in to deliver his vocals, so nothing will really change in the band except who is going to be behind the microphone. PYRAMAZE will stay PYRAMAZE, and the third album will slay you all!
"PYRAMAZE is currently communicating with a vocalist who is very interested in being a part of the PYRAMAZE lineup, and should this work out you are all in for a HUGE surprise! We all view this as a possibility for an even better future for the band, rather than a step down. We realize that Lance will be a hard man to replace, but we're very confident in our music and our team spirit.
"Let's finally state that we're not happy with the way this parting-of-ways was communicated out. When we informed Lance that we had to let him go he asked for us to not send out any statement until he had a chance to comment on it. So we were waiting for his reply when he himself made a public statement. This is not the way to do it, and it really saddens us to have to go out at this stage with our own press release. Nevertheless, we are ready to face the future and we're very much looking forward to what's in store for PYRAMAZE."
PYRAMAZE's latest album, "Legend Of The Bone Carver", was released earlier in the year via Massacre Records (Europe) and Nightmare Records (USA and Canada).
