Aeon changes bassplayer….again

We have spoken to Victor Brandt and we have come to realize from both parts that Aeon will need more time from a bassplayer than he can give us. The geographical issue with having Victor living in Oslo was of course one contributing factor to this realization. Victor told us that he is not sure anymore if he can give us what we need, and he dont wanna hinder us from doing what we need to do. So we´ll thank him for his short time as a member and give a big welcome to the guy who played with us on our last gigs here in Sweden, Marcus Edvardsson (Souldrainer / Santification) whom will from now on be our new member in Aeon.

We all know Marcus since way back and we all get along well, and last but not least he is one hell of a guy to handle the bass for us. Really heavy and distinct playing, and great stage-presence which suits us perfect.

Tourdate 28.11.2009 changed

We got some bad news. The gig with Mayhem and Godphobia in Östersund 2009-11-28 has been cancelled. We are still waiting for details about this. However, since the cancelation has nothing to do with Aeon, we have decided to throw you a show here in Östersund anyway. This gig has nothing to do with the Mayhem show so the tickets you may have bought for that show will be re-funded by the booking agency and this show will cost 80:- at the door. No pre-sale will be available due to the short notice. Information about refunding your Mayhem tickets will be sent thru email from the booking agency and details will be found on www.hardrocksklubben.se in a moment. The local black metal act Denicalis will support us this evening.

28.11.2009 Aeon + Denicalis @ Gamla Tingshuset Östersund
Price: 80:- at the door
Doors open 19:00 and first band on stage 20:00
After the show, we will continue the night at Plaza for some party (18+)

PS. We might treat you with a new song this evening…

In the studio, recording our third full-length album

1st of September, AEON once again enters the Empire Studio here in Ostersund/Sweden to record our third (yet untitled) upcoming album. As of today, we are about half way through the recording-process and it’s going exactly as planned. 10 new songs are being put on tape (hard drive) and we are pretty confident that all of you who liked our previous efforts or death metal in general will love this. When we are done tracking the songs, none other than Erik Rutan from HATE ETERNAL/ex-MORBID ANGEL at Mana Studios in Florida will be mixing the album. You may know his killer work from such bands as CANNIBAL CORPSE, NILE, VITAL REMAINS, GOATWHORE among others. We are absolutely confident that this death metal maniac will give us the mix/production we are looking for. Erik is a really great guy, an awesome studio engineer/producer, a killer musician and he really knows his death metal A/B’s. This will, without a doubt kick some serious ass.

A note on the recording, since we recently replaced our bass player, Daniel & Zeb are handling all the bass on this album. There wasn’t enough time for Victor to learn the songs and both studios where already booked. No worries though, both Daniel & Zeb can handle a bass so this is not a problem. Once the album is finished it will be released by Metal Blade Records. No release dates are set at this point.

Stay tuned for more details and info as this Death Metal Opus is coming to life.

AEON parts way with Max and recruits new bass player

First of all we want to state that Max is a great bass player and a real nice person. Unfortunately, he couldn’t handle the life on the road all that well. We noticed how he struggled through the last tour we did. He really loves the actual moment on stage, but everything else around that comes with the life on the road was just a great deal of pain for him. So both AEON and Max agreed that this way of life wasn’t exactly made for him. Being on tour in a not so known death metal band like AEON often means really tough conditions and bad economy. We totally understand that not everyone can put up with this way of life. There are no hard feelings from any of the parts. We would like to thank Max for the time with the band and we wish him all the best with his future endeavors. Take care bro.

When one leaves, a new one has to come… and there is no difference in this case. Our new bass player is a great, well experienced musician who is really into death metal. We think that this guy is absolutely perfect for the spot. So let’s rise the horns high and welcome our new bass player, Victor Brandt (TOTALT JÄVLA MÖRKER, former SATYRICON touring bassist) to AEON. We are looking forward to all the great death metal madness we got ahead of us with our new member.

Nantes / France gig cancelled

We where forced to cancel our show 2009-01-25 in Nantes / France. The reason for this was once again that our tourbuss broke down. We are today going to get tourbuss nr 4 for this tour and its now provided by another company. We are sorry for this short notice cancelation, but the problem was once again totally out of our control.
