Swiss heavy metal act BURNING WITCHES<\/strong> has announced that, following the formation of her new band Crypta with former Nervosa members Fernanda Lira and Luana Dametto, guitarist Sonia Anubis has parted company with the band. A statement from the group reads as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Many saw it coming: Sonia has left the Burning Witches!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Yes, indeed to keep a girl band together is more difficult than we thought. Nobody wanted to sign us as a band, with the argument that woman-bands do not last. Well it seems THAT Curse is real! But we will NOT give up!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Sonia has left us for her new project. We saw this coming and we have to accept it. People change and people move on. We wish her all the best!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“For us as a Band this means we have to work harder. We will continue our path and will of course look for a new Witch!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“But first of all, this Friday, we will have a LIVE JAM with some amazing girls and friends. More news on Wednesday! Please stay tuned!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We will take our time to search and announce the new lead player, please understand we are as shocked as you are. We will use the Corona-times useful, to choose the right person for our lead guitarist position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The backbone of the band will remain strong, in friendship and musically. We are already working on new songs and are top motivated to return on stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We want to thank all the fans for the amazing support and will keep you posted about our future moves! Stay positive! It sounds like a clich\u00e9 but it was never more meaningful than now: WE ARE READY TO FIGHT!!!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sonia “Anubus” Nuddelder has commented on her departure too, saying:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Dear fans,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“For personal reasons and with a lot of deliberation, I have decided to fully dedicate myself to Crypta and Cobra Spell and to leave Burning Witches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The last 2.5 years were full of amazing and priceless experiences, it made many of my dreams become reality and I always put all my passion and love for music into it. This journey also opened many doors for new challenges that I am overly anxious to pursue. Such as starting my own bands, writing my own music and push that further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I am extremely thankful for my my dear family, friends and of course all the wonderful fans for the immense support. I deeply thank the band and the management for the fantastic concert\/stage moments such as playing at WACKEN, Sweden Rock, Summer Breeze… and the list goes on, traveling the world, being part of 2 fantastic BURNING WITCHES full-length albums that I will for ever look up to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“This is was a very hard decision, but sometimes you can\u2019t pursue a bigger dream, without giving up a meaningful one in return. I will continue my musical path with full passion for music and for the fans! This is just the beginning!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The debut release of Cobra Spell (heavy metal) will be released later this year. And the line-up announcement will very soon this coming days. So please, stay tuned! Also, of course stay tuned to further news with Crypta (death metal), we just released the line-up!”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
