Vicious Rumors - Live - 17.11.2009 Osnabrück

[Oliver/Keep-It-True]

San Francisco Bay Area metallers VICIOUS RUMORS have issued the following statement:

"On Thursday, December 3, Ronnie Stixx [vocals] was officially let go from VICIOUS RUMORS.

"After working together for two years, the band felt he was not the right vocalist to record the new CD. Brian Allen from the group LAST EMPIRE has been confirmed to assume the lead vocal position for VICIOUS RUMORS at their December 19, 2009 show, sponsored by Sfarzo Strings, at the Last Day Saloon in Santa Rosa with headliner DEATH ANGEL and opener SEEDS OF HATE.

"We worked with [Brian] for a few days and [he] is AMAZING! Our plan is to work with Brian for our show December 19th, and in the studio for the pre-production work for our new CD.

"We have had many interested singers approach us and hope to make our final decision for the lineup and new CD this January.

"VICIOUS RUMORS will be back with a monster new CD and world tour in 2010 and would like to thank their fans and friends for their 30 years of support!"

Sehr 'diplomatisch'.
Sollte Brian Allen, ein Sänger im Rivera-Stil, tatsächlich das kommende Album einsingen, dann ist - mit Vorsicht - anzunehmen dass man in Sachen Melodie kaum an die alten Glanztaten anknüpfen wird. Dazu braucht man nunmal eine variablere und vor allem wärmere Stimme. So eine wie die von Ronnie Stixx eben. Aber ich lasse mich gerne eines besseren belehren.
