Still freshly signed to Century Media Records and preparing for their European tour with label mates Cryptopsy and death metal cult act Grave, Belgian ABORTED had to deal with line-up changes at a time but fortunately none of them affected the band’s enthusiasm and touring/recording plans for 2006. The official statement of ABORTED below tells the whole story:

A new year, a new beginning: On those note we start off the new year, wishing everyone including all our fans the best of luck with their plans and projects for 2006. Unfortunately we have some unpleasant news to bring as well at this point. Due to personal issues that could not be resolved, ABORTED had to part ways with Tace & Free. A cummulation of smaller and bigger problems in the past so and so months has made it virtually impossible to keep cooperating together as a collective unit.

On a more positive note, we want to state that absolutely nobody out there should worry about shows getting cancelled and so on. The February tour with Cryptopsy, Grave, Dew-Scented and others will go on as planned! Stepping in are Seb (Genital Grinder/Balrog) on guitar, Olivia (ex-No Return/Balrog) on bass and Matty (Emeth) on guitar as well since Steph could not commit himself to this tour due to his lady sitting at home pregnant.

We have already rehearsed our setlist with the new line-up several times and things are working out perfectly. The motivation and "drive" is back in the band, something that was missing since a while ago, and it feels great to be jamming out the tunes with fresh blood incorporated. Throughout the years this band has been struggling with the line-up, having more than a couple of line-up changes. However, ABORTED has proven that what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger, and this time it should be no exception.


We also started working on the successor to "The Archaic Abattoir", which is set to be recorded later this year. Again we would like to thank all of those who have supported us, and we're glad you are still doing so. We will see many of you on tour in February!
