Impaled Existence Parts With Bassist Andy Rothwell

Bass player Andy Rothwell from U.K. band Impaled Existence has posted the following announcement online about leaving the group:

"Unfortunately I've had to give up my position as bassist for Impaled Existence. The band is at a critical juncture in its career and truthfully I can no longer commit the time and focus that I was once able to due to a number of recent changes in my life.

"It's been a fun ride, not without its bumps but I know that the guys are heading in the right direction, and I wish them the best of luck. I've been lucky enough to be good mates with the band for a number of years, well before I joined in March last year, and we'll remain solid after my time with them.

"My departure will not affect any of the bands upcoming commitments. Anyway, I'd like to say thanks for the memories and to all the awesome people I've met and venues I've visited. And remember, ?#?nohorse."
