| Post subject: | Falconer fire Kriss Gobel |
According to a post by Kriss on Falconer's official forum, he has been fired. By coincidence or not, this follows an announcement on their website that the next album will be more in the vain of their eralier wokrs than their newest album. Unless Mattias Blad is coming back (which I seriously doubt), I'm seriously pissed off at this. Even if he is, its a bit of a shoddy way to treat Kriss. |

:shock: Just saw this on Blabbermouth Swedish epic/power metallers FALCONER have confirmed the departure of singer Kristoffer Göbel. In a posting on their official web site, the band write, "Well, once again the line up of FALCONER is changing. 'Now again!!' you might say. It does sound a bit unstable to do this every once in a while, I know. "After realizing that changing vocalist was not that applauded by people nor was the musical change on the last album (isn't it great when people are open minded....) we thought: 'OK, sailing towards the wind is getting boring' (personally I would say a sense of cynicism started to grow), 'Why not sail with it instead in good mood?' "After changing the new music into more folkish style (and loving the sound of it) Karsten and I thought, 'Why not go the whole way, it would really fit the music. "So hereby we present you the return of Mathias Blad. "So we thank Kristoffer for the years in the band. It's been a great time we allways will cherish and we assure you all that this has nothing to do with personal matters. We wish all the best for Kriss in the future. "This kind of thing is about the worst things you can do to a bandmate if you're all friends but in the end, this is not a sand box, it's a band." FALCONER's fourth studio album, "Grime Vs. Grandeur", was released in May via Metal Blade Records. The CD features guest performances by Snowy Shaw (MERCYFUL FATE, KING DIAMOND, DREAM EVIL) on drums and Andy LaRocque (KING DIAMOND) on additional lead vocals. |

I say, this is positively splendid news. Blad was brilliant as a folk metal vocalist, just brilliant. |

And if they actually manage to return to the more folkish sound that would be the best. |

I thought the Sceptre of Deception was a good album, but if Falconer can get back to the sound of their first two albums, I'll be very happy indeed. GvG was just very disappointing. I'll be checking out any work Kriss Gobel does in the future as well, the guy has an excellent voice - just perhaps not the right one for Falconer. Hasy anyone heard the album he recorded with Destiny? |
