recording artists It Dies Today have announced that they have parted
ways with vocalist Nick Brooks. Jason Wood will take the microphone as
a full-time member of the band. Speaking on the departure, Brooks
issued the following statement: "The last six years have been
incredible and Ive seen and done more things than I ever thought were
possible with this band. I also met so many amazing people along the
way and I want to thank all of the fans for being so supportive, you
guys made this all worthwhile. Ive decided to leave the band because
that is what is best for everyone at the moment. I will miss everyone,
but be sure that you will be hearing from me again. I have a new band
called Queen City Station and we should be recording some time this
spring.
Guitarist Mike Hatalak has released his own statement regarding the situation: The band would like to send Nick our best wishes with his new project and we will always treasure the hard work and music we have created with him. Taking over will be Jason Wood who we first met while he was filling in on bass with Still Remains. Jason would like to welcome the fans commenting. I was privileged to be on tour with It Dies Today this summer while playing with Still Remains. Those weeks gave me a chance to see how hard they work on a regular basis and how much they care about their fans and music.
It Dies Today will have their first date on the Comeback Kid Co-headling tour starting on March 21st. They are supporting their recently released sophomore album, Sirens, which has attracted much media attention. The band has already received feature coverage in Metal Edge, Revolver, Alternative Press, Hit Parader, and Decibel. Outburn praised the album, saying "On Sirens&It Dies Today keeps their longtime fans fully satisfied while attracting scores of new metalheads to their lair with some of the catchiest melodies and most ballsout breakdown ever put to disc & Everything is intensified- the riffs are sharper, and the choruses are larger than life.
