STEEL ATTACK Parts Ways With Guitarist, Announces Replacement

February 4, 2009

Swedish metallers STEEL ATTACK have issued the following update:

"We're sad to announce that [guitarist] Simon Johansson (MEMORY GARDEN, ABSTRAKT ALGEBRA) has left the band 'due to personal reasons.' There's no bad feelings between us, it just didn't work.... simple as that! We bow and thank you Simon, for your time and efforts!! At the same time, we're very glad to announce the return of Johan Jalonen Penn! Welcome back, Johan."

"Crawl", the latest video from STEEL ATTACK, can be viewed below. The track comes off the group's most recent album, "Carpe DiEnd", which was released on February 22, 2008 via Massacre Records. The CD was recorded at KING DIAMOND guitarist Andy La Rocque's Sonic Train studio and it was mixed at Solnasound by Mike Wead (MERCYFUL FATE, KING DIAMOND).

"Carpe DiEnd" is the follow-up to "Diabolic Symphony", which was released in April 2006 via Massacre.
