Artist News: An Update From Darkwater Emerges
An update from the band Darkwater: "We've understood that a lot of people are curious and would like an update on what is going on with Darkwater at the moment. It's now been a while since we released our first album [2007's Calling The Earth To Witness] and we quite recently parted with our bass player [Karl Wassholm]. So what is really happening in the dark waters?
"Regarding the bass player spot, we have auditioned several people but still haven't found exactly what we are looking for. We will keep looking until we find the perfect match. In the meantime we will use Simon Andersson (ex-Pain of Salvation) as a session player. He is an amazing bass player with lots of experience, and a better substitute would probably be impossible to find.
"And what is happening with the new album? For quite some time we've gone through all the music we've had laying around, re-written a lot of it and written a bunch of new songs. So right now we have far too many songs to put on one album, or even ten albums. But we are doing our best to choose the most fitting songs for this up-coming album. We still have a lot of lyrics to write and also some melodies, but we are planning to head into the recording studios later this year. So some time next year there will be a new Darkwater album out for you to enjoy.
"Thank for your support, and patience!
// Henrik, Markus, Tobias, Magnus"
