Voice Of Ruin Parts With Guitar Player

After releasing the "Consumed" EP (still streaming here), Voice Of Ruin has issued the following announcement about parting ways with the band's guitar player:

"After a bit more than 6 years (since the beginning of the band), our dear guitarist Nils has decided to stop the adventure. When he announced that he'd taken this decision it first came as shock to us, especially to Olivier and I, as we've been playing together for more than 10 years. Nils would like to explore other kinds of music and go back to playing bass as he once did.

"We respect his decision as band members and above all as FRIENDS! We wish him all the best with his musical ventures, and be assured that we will stay in contact and maintain this friendship that we've nurtured for so many years! Be sure to catch us for our last show with him:

08.05.2015 - Festival de Chair et d'Acier, Mâcon (FR)
23.05.2015 - Usine a Gaz, Nyon (CH)
10.06.2015 - Chat Noir, Genève (CH)

"But the good news is that we've already found a great guy as his replacement: his name is Nicolas and we've known him for many years. Nicolas is an excellent musician and has already a lot of experience in the music scene. He has played with bands like Requiem For Sirens, The Fetch, Sybreed (as a fill-in for a 2010 European tour) and he manages a music agency called Black Bear Agency. Our first show with him will take place on the 27th of Junes 2015 at the Usine of Geneva as support of Dagoba and Benighted. It's going to be massive!"
