Alexander Katsigiannis, the guitarist and co-founder of the Greek progressive metal outfit Wastefall, has recently left the band. Being part of it for more than 10 years, his contribution to the band is invaluable. Additionally, Wastefall have already announced the replacement for Alexander. Taking the position of guitarist will be John Aktypis.

The band states: "We would like to announce that guitarist and co-founder of Wastefall Alexander Katsigiannis has left the band due to his hectic academic schedule, that couldn't follow up with the band's demands. We welcome the talented John Aktypis (Astral DNA, ex-Decemberance, ex-Ritual Of The Black Sun) behind the guitars, and we are ready to hit the stage and begin with the recordings for our 4th full-length album. Stay tuned for our news and thanks again for your support so far!"

Alexander comments: "I would like to wish my brothers luck and lots of love. I am sure Wastefall will kick ass with their new material. Thank you for sharing my vision with yours and for the great moments we experienced together all those years. Peace. "
