Last week was an interesting one, what with Aeon guitarist Daniel Dlimi dropping out of the band due to not making any money (actually losing money) while in the group. The band are taking the loss in stride and are actually working on a new record.
According to the band's Facebook:
Ok folks. Since some people are asking us if we will continue as a band or not after Daniels departure, let's make it clear that we will continue to spread our dark music.
We always knew that this point in our career would come. When we would be asked to tour more and more, but the touring does not cover the loss of income from our day jobs….and it is a very difficult point. With this band we do get paid, we just have to cut on our losses.
But the rest of us still wanna give it a try!! We still have faith that there is a need for some true death metal in this world!!
THE FIRE STILL BURNS!!!!We will also be looking for a replacement for Daniel of course. More info on this will come soon.
And we just got started working on our next album….how about that folks???
The band sort of make it sound like they've got a replacement for Dlimi, though that could be purely speculation and reading into things on my part 9as I'm apt to do). Regardless, good on them for finding someone and doing some new jams! Here's to hoping they pick up the slack financially as well.
