Heretic Parts Ways With Guitarist Glenn Rogers

Sean Hadley, manager of U.S. metal outfit Heretic, has issued the following statement about Heretic parting ways with guitarist Glenn Rogers:

"As you know, I rarely make personal statements. However, I decided that in light of this past week’s events that I would.

"First, I want to thank you, the fans, for all of your support for the band. Without you, there would be no Heretic or music industry. We appreciate each and every one of you!

"Next, I would like to personally thank Glenn Rogers for his significant contributions to Heretic and to metal music. Without him, Heretic would not have reformed. Furthermore, because of you, both Sandy and I have the honor of being a part of the Heretic family. We were both gutted by your decision to hang up your guitar. Again, thank you metal brother, your talents will be truly missed.

"Finally, I would like to address the future of Heretic. Are we going away? HELL NO! We are carrying on with our mission to record and release a new album for the fans. Watch for updates on our progress and future release date soon. Thank you again for all your support. HORNS UP and DON’T TURN YOUR BACK!"
