Witheria Working On New Music, Parts Ways With Lappis

Finland's Witheria just issued the following announcement about working on new material and parting ways with Mikko "Lappis" Lappalainen:

"A lot of new material has been written for the next album. Seven songs are now mostly done, music wise. Epic stuff coming up! No exact dates for the recordings yet, but things are brewing nicely!

"We have parted ways with Lappis (aka Predator) due to his lack of motivation towards the band, as well as musical differences. He played guitar and formerly bass for the band during the last 9 years and also contributed writing some of the music for the last two albums. We wish him luck in his future endeavors!

"We have one gig coming up, so we have wasted no time in recruiting a guitar player to fill in! We are already working with a guy who knows his stuff, and we'll see how things evolve from here. Exciting times! More details will follow soon(ish) - stay mental!"
