THE DOWNWARD CANDIDATE Parts Ways With Vocalist, Seeks Replacement

June 23, 2008

THE DOWNWARD CANDIDATE, the Danish band featuring former/current members of HATESPHERE, THORIUM, KILLAMAN and WITHERING SURFACE, has parted ways with vocalist Kim Jarlhelt. According to the remaining members of the group, "a number of reasons has been decisive for Kim's departure, but it's mainly personal and something no one else but us would find interesting. The important thing is that everybody finds this the best decision and we split as good pals and all is merry."

The band adds, "We have had a few other vocalists in mind, but until now we haven't succeeded in making it all come together. So, we are still looking for Kim's replacement. If you think that your self or some one you know have got the right sound and attitude, drop us a line.

"We regard us selves as a live band, so besides the obvious kick-ass qualities you possess, it's iimportant that you have the time and wish to tour a lot, be it in or outside Denmark, in a smelly nightliner or a smelly station wagon with trailer. It's also very important that you are committed and feel responsible for what you are doing. We need a fourth member, not just some guy that pops in from time to time."

THE DOWNWARD CANDIDATE is scheduled to enter Smart 'n Hard studio in July with producer Jacob Bredahl to begin recording its debut album.

THE DOWNWARD CANDIDATE is:

[To Be Announced] - Vocals
Allen Tvedebrink (ex-WITHERING SURFACE, THORIUM) - Guitar
Kasper Boye Larsen (ex-WITHERING SURFACE, KILLAMAN) - Bass
Dennis Buhl (EVIL MASQUERADE, ex-SINPHONIA, HATESPHERE) - Drums
