The band has already begun tracking their new EP with James Murphy and will release a single from the effort soon.<\/p>\n<p>Nilsson had the following to say:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Six years ago the guys asked me to do a guest solo for the &#8216;Riders&#8217; album and we&#8217;ve been friends ever since. I&#8217;ve followed their career as a fan and when they reached out asking me to join the band, it was a no-brainer. I am super excited to be a part of The Absence family; we&#8217;ve been jamming out some new tunes and I feel like we&#8217;ve got some killer stuff in the works for ya! Between Patrick and me, there&#8217;s gonna be some INSANE guitar shreddin&#8217; on the new tunes!&#8221;<br \/>\n<br \/>\nSource: Lambgoat<br \/>\n<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/theabsence\">http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/theabsence<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tampa, Florida&#8217;s THE ABSENCE has announced that guitarist Per Nilsson of Scar Symmetry has joined&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_mo_disable_npp":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-31979","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31979","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=31979"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31979\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=31979"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=31979"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=31979"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
