Kristoffer Gildenlöw, Bassist der Prog Giganten "Pain Of Salvation", verläßt die Band. Seit seinem Umzug nach Holland konnte der Bassist nicht mehr regelmäßig an Proben und Aufnahmen teilnehmen und wurde von den anderen Bandmitgliedern freundlich aufgefordert, die Band zu verlassen. Hier das Original Statement der Band: "We are a band who loves to play music together, and who values being a real band rather than a project that functions on distance. Being a tight unit welded together musically and personally is an important part of the band´s soul; and constantly being decimated while composing, rehearsing, and even recording, simply proved impossible in the long run. Kristoffer has grown to become a tremendous bass player during the years with Pain of Salvation and it is with sadness that we now see him go, but since this logistic situation will not change within the coming years, we unfortunately see no other choice." http://www.painofsalvation.com
