Just as EXODUS announced they parted ways with their vocalist to reintroduce an old one, MY DYING BRIDE spread the word that they split with guitar player Hamish Glencross (bottom left on the cover photo) due to “irreconcilable differences”. Glencross played guitar with MY DYING BRIDE since 2000 when he replaced Calvin Robertshaw. It is that same Robertshaw that now returns to MY DYING BRIDE’s line-up. Robertshaw played for the band in their very early years between 1990 and 1999 and thus helped to lay to foundation of the doom/death genre.
The band commented further on their official Facebook page:
What more can we say to that. Calvin is one of the original guitarists that helped make My Dying Bride what it is today. His departure after the now infamous 34.788% Complete album left us all stunned but now we have convinced him to rejoin and are sure this is going to be a success. We feel that My Dying Bride has now stabilised again and we are really, really excited at the prospect of going forward as a band united again by doom metal music. We will be working together with Calvin on finishing the new lp which we plan to record later this year. The writing of the new lp has been progressing somewhat slower than usual due to our internal problems but despite that we now have around 7 new songs in a very complete fashion, obviously we are now all wondering what Calvin can bring and now can’t wait to get back into the studio to find out. The studio we have chosen to use for the majority of the recording is our old haunt Academy Studios. Then we will be back at Futureworks for some finishing off and possibly vocals. Time will tell. We would like to thank from the very bottom of all our hearts, all of our supporters old and new for their patience and love, we promise you a continued and very much stronger My Dying Bride in the future.
