FROM ARTILLERY:
Hi all.
Well line-up changes happen, especially if you’re a 41-year-old band.
Like a marriage, people part, and so does bandmembers. Kræn Meier and Artillery recently parted ways. We wish Kræn all the best, he will without a doubt make his mark in Danish metal, as he did in Artillery. News on a new guitar player will be posted soon……Be patient.
New singer is a long-time friend of the band, Martin Steene.
About Martin. Martin has been a big part of the Danish metal scene, for many years.
He made his recording debut with the band Iron Fire in 2000.
He has released 9 albums+ 1 compilation/Best of, with Iron Fire.
He was a touring member of the band Saturnus for two years as rhythm guitarist.
Martin also played in a legendary Danish band called Evil, a speed metal band. In 2023 Evil released an album called Book of Evil. From 2003-2005 Martin was in a band called Force of Evil. The band members were Michael Denner, Hank Shermann, Hal Patino and Bjarne Holm….Whoa, wait a minute, that’s almost a full Mercyful Fate and King Diamond line-up.
Martins vocal range is amazing, ranging from classic metal, melodic metal and thrash metal.
So, Martin is ready to turn out for Artillery in 2024. Tour coming up, shows already booked, more to come, and were happy that Martin will join Artillery. There will be Metal.
……………and as mentioned … news coming up soon, on the guitar front.
Artillery.
Thanks-Stay Metal, Stay Brutal-\m/ -l-
