July 20, 2010

Canadian metallers THREAT SIGNAL have parted ways with Adam Weber.

Commented bassist Pat Kavanagh: "Adam has decided to leave us. He has some personal things he needs to work out and we wish him all the best. We're still good friends and there's plenty more beers that we'll have together, so no worries.

"I know this sucks to hear for a lot of you, and I can list off a boatload of bands that have been through the same shit we've been through. Just know it sucks hard on our side, too."

THREAT SIGNAL will be utilizing the services of Kris Norris (ex-DARKEST HOUR) as a stand-in guitarist for its upcoming shows with SOILWORK in August. The dates are as follows:
