PRIMAL FEAR - Apocalypse (10 aout 2018)

Alexander Beyrodt a écrit:chers fans et amis de Primal Fear,
Malheureusement, nous devons vous informer aujourd'hui qu'Alex Beyrodt, Tom Naumann, Michael Ehré et Alex Jansen, qui nous ont aidé à la basse depuis deux ans, ne font plus partie du groupe Primal Fear. Déclenché par des décisions internes auxquelles nous ne respectons pas, cela était inévitable pour nous tout sauf une étape facile. Nous tenons à préciser clairement qu'en dépit des divergences d'opinion, il n'y a pas eu de querelles ni même de mauvais sang.
Nous sommes reconnaissants pour le temps que nous avons partagé, les nombreux albums, les tournées, les spectacles et les festivals qui nous ont emmenés ensemble à travers le monde, et bien sûr pour l'amour des fans nous ont témoigné. Nous souhaitons à Mat et Ralf tout le meilleur pour la suite !
Alex, Tom, Michael et Alex

To answer some of your questions - Magnus Karlsson is still in the band! The only difference to a week ago is that he will join Primal Fear permanently on albums (like always) and from now on @ all live shows and tours again!

Breaking News:
We’re excited to announce our second guitarist. From now on the Italian/Cuban guitar sensation Thalia Bellazecca of „Angus McSix“ will join PRIMAL FEAR as a full member and guitar partner of Magnus Karlsson!
Comments Thalia: “I’m stoked and excited to have the opportunity to play with these giants of the heavy and power metal scene. I feel so honored to share the stage with these amazing musicians and to start a new journey also with this incredible and historical band! Can’t wait to start working with all of you!”

Comments Ralf Scheepers: "After my last show in Italy, I got to know Thalia personally and I realized what a wonderful person she is... Anyone who knows me knows that personal contact and sympathy is very important to me. So I read up on her musical projects and skills and was blown away by her incredible talent! I can't wait to work with her in the studio and of course live soon!“
Welcome Thalia and we’re super happy to have you in the Metal Commando!

….. and now it’s official. We confirm our new drummer and it’s non other than the powerhouse André Hilgers - as many of you already expected. André helped out on our last tour with UDO and is a longtime friend. Now his time has come!
Comments André: I’m really happy that i’m a full member of the band right now and after our sensational Tour together. Sometimes what belongs together comes together. Cheers Metal Heads!
Mat Sinner: André totally deserves it - we're looking forward to enter the studio with him soon and record a crushing new album!
