News Metal : Marionette change de frontman

Les suédois de Marionette viennent d'annoncer le départ de leur chanteur Axel Widén pour raisons personnelles. C'est un certain Alexander Andersson (Eldrimner) qui prendra sa place.

La déclaration d'Axel Widén:
"After an amazing journey, the time has come for me to accept that my time as a part of Marionette is over. The band needs things that life keeps me from being able to provide. Given the choice between either lowering the bands ambitions or stepping down as a frontman, my love for Marionette, the guys, the fans, the music and the respect I feel for what we’ve accomplished means I have to step down. Let there be no confusion here; I leave so that Marionette can live on. We part on good terms. Alexander, the next person to leave his mortal flesh behind and front Marionette, will blow you away. And I will watch from the shadows, forever."

La déclaration de Mikael Medin, bassiste et membre fondateur du groupe:
"It is not easy to announce that Axel is leaving Marionette. It wasn’t something that anyone wanted but, as Axel explained, he had no other choice. We’ve been through good and bad times together and we have more awesome memories together than we will ever remember. He will truly be missed."

"But Axel sure as hell isn’t going out without a bang. On May 22nd we are having a farewell show for Axel at Sticky Fingers here in Gothenburg and you should all come out and say good bye to him, as well as giving your warmest welcoming and support to our new singer, Alexander Andersson, who is fucking awesome and who we hope you will love as much as we do."

Nerve a été mis en boîte aux Studios Fredman avec le fameux Fredrik Nordström (In Flames, Dimmu Borgir, At the Gates...), puis mixé par le chanteur de Dead by April, Pontus Hjelm. Le mastering a lui été réalisé par Erik Broheden (Rammstein, Turbonegro, Within Temptation...) aux Masters Of Audio Studios.

10. När Du Ruttnar Bort

12. Lights Out
13. Overdose
14. The Sun, The Skies, The Clarity And Light

Cette fois-ci, l'opus sortira en auto-production. Aron Parmerud (guitare) commente:
"We are pleased to finally announce the album title for our third release: NERVE. This album has a very special place in our hearts not only because it is our strongest and most diverse material to date, but also because we spent a good deal of time figuring out the most relevant way to present the album to our fans. In doing so, we decided to forego a traditional release through a label and instead release NERVE on our own.

“We have been working closely with Gustavo Sazes from Abstrata design for months now to create a stunning covert art that we will share with you closer to the release. NERVE will be available starting November 14 via our Official Website, and on all online mp3 services (including Spotify) via Pivotal Rockordings. Physical copies of Nerve will be individually numbered, each of which we will sign and personalize per request. NERVE will also be available for purchase on all upcoming MARIONETTE tour dates, including The SlaughTour 2011."

Les Suédois de Marionette viennent de signer un deal international avec Warner/Chappell Music Scandinavia (Meshuggah, Sabaton).
Le groupe serait d'ailleurs en train de mixer son troisième album au Studio PH de Göteborg, avec Pontus Hielm (Dead By April).
Les chansons "Something Forgotten", "Remember Your Name", "Stand In Line" et "Lights Out" seront sur l'opus.

Les commentaires de Warner/Chappell Music Scandinavia's Sanken Sandqvist: "Sweden has continued to produce quality metal acts for over twenty years now. But MARIONETTE stands out above all for its focus on creating quality metal that is innovative and unconventional while putting on an excellent, interactive, live show that is above and beyond what most bands with dudes in jeans and t-shirts can do in concert. We look forward to working with these young guys from Gothenburg and helping them grow to new heights."

Ainsi que la réaction du guitariste Aron Parmerud: "We are proud to announce that we have signed with Warner Chappell for publishing our previous two albums and our future material. This worldwide deal will give us the support of one of the worlds largest publishing companies, allowing us to focus on creating new and innovative music, which has been our goal since 2005.

"Everyone at the MARIONETTE camp has been 100% focused on the mixing of our third album, which is occurring (as I type) at Studio PH with Pontus Hjelm.

"This album is by far our most mature release to date; there are a lot of new elements we are introducing to the MARIONETTE sound.

"We expect to turn a lot of heads with this release, and so far the response to the new material we played live on our 'The SlaughTour 2010' headline tour of the U.K. and dates with DARK TRANQUILLITY earlier this year was received extremely well, both by MARIONETTE fans and people who have never seen or heard us before.

"After our album is mastered in January, we look forward to getting back on the road and sharing more new material with everyone who sees us live next year."
