AMARAN Cancel PROGPOWER FESTIVAL Appearance

September 11, 2004

Swedish progressive metallers AMARAN have posted the following message on their web site:

"I'm sorry to say but we have bad news for you. Due to circumstances beyond our control (mainly economical) we are forced to cancel our performance at this year's ProgPower and the gig at Loppen (Den). When you put your faith in the hands of other people and when they don't deliver you get 'fucked over' and this is what happened to us. We all looked forward to these gigs and going out with KATATONIA again but as things turned out, it is IMPOSSIBLE for us to do the gigs. It sucks but we have no other alternative... Once again, sorry for all the inconvenience that this might cause any of you!

"We'll concentrate all our enery into the songwriting of the next album which will be recorded next year, it'll be a new killer — that's a promise!!!"

AMARAN's sophomore effort, "Pristine In Bondage", was released in January through Listenable Records. The follow-up to "A World Depraved" was recorded at Studio Underground in Västerås, Sweden and is the group's first since the departure of bassist Mikael Andersson (he has since been replaced by JULIE LAUGHS NO MORE drummer Ronnie Bergerståhl).
