Swedish metal band HAMMERFALL have announced that drummer David Wallin has left the band, and that they already have a replacement. A message from the band follows:
“It’s almost Christmas, but we’ve got a bit of not-so-festive news: due to family commitments, David will not be able to do any gigs with us next year and has decided to vacate his drum stool. It is very unfortunate, and we wish him all the best with his future career and life.
“But we have found a perfect replacement, and we’re sure you will embrace him as quickly and warmly as you did David. Ladies and gentlemen, without further ado, here is the new drummer of HammerFall: Johan Koleberg (pictured below), formerly of Therion and Randy Piper’s Animal. Please welcome him with open arms, as he is a fantastic drummer and an all-around great guy.
“We can’t wait to get out on the road and show you what this line-up of HammerFall is capable of, we’re very excited! So see you at the concerts, it will be a blast!”
