Swedish and Greek melodic metal band NIGHTRAGE have announced the departure of vocalist Tomas Lindberg (ex-THE CROWN) from their ranks. In a website update, the band revealed that the position has already been filled by Jimmie Strimell. Statements from both Lindbery and Strimell are below:
…from Lindberg:
“Dear fans of Nightrage and metal in general, I´m sad to announce my departure from the mighty Nightrage. This is a band i joined some time ago to help my friend Marios out. But over the course of time I´ve grown deeply fond of being a part of this extraordinary band. But as you might know I´m a busy soul and have no other option that to give up one of my projects, only becuase of lack of time. My only comfort is that Nightrage now can continue at full speed without me holding them back. But i will continue to follow their career, cause i have great expectations for the future of this band. Hail Marios! Hail Nightrage.”
…from Strimell:
“Hello all you Nightrage fans out there. This is Jimmie the new singer, I just want to tell you that I am so happy to join Nightrage and it”s a big honour to take over after Tomas. I promise you guys that I will do the songs justice and you will not be dissapointed. Stay metal and have patience, cause soon we will come and rock your town.”
