“So as you probably have guessed by now, Jason Wisdom has left the band,” guitarist Seth Hecox commented. “Also departing the band is [Brent “Duck” Duckett], drummer on 3 of our 4 albums. Both will be missed and remembered fondly by us and by you guys. We part on friendly terms (I just watched the Broncos game last night with Jason and played basketball with him the night before). On drums and bass, we’ve had two members of The Overseer filling in… We would’ve loved them to join the band, but it looks like The Overseer is getting signed, so they’re gonna need to tour with their own band. We’ve already found a drummer (that’ll be revealed soon) and we’re close to nailing down a permanent bass player.”
