Swallow The Sun - New Drummer Found


Swallow the Sun's new drummer was announced today on the band's website:

"Kai Hahto to play with Swallow the Sun

We are glad to announce that Kai Hahto (Wintersun, ex-Rotten Sound) will be playing drums on our forthcoming album and live shows next summer.

We have known Kai for years, and we have worked with him earlier when he played with us on our North American tour back in 2007. Knowing what he's capable of behind the drum set we are really excited about working with him again. We are confident that he can deliver drum parts that will not only perfectly fit the trademark Swallow the Sun -sound, but take it even further. We'll start rehearsing with him at the end of this month, and we'll keep you posted on how the album is coming up!"

I think he realised Wintersun will never ever release a new album. And imo this is a smart move on his part. As you all know I don't like Swallow The Sun but they are still superior to Wintersun for me.

I think that the drums for the new Wintersun album have been done for a while now, so it shouldn't be an issue, I know how concerned you are with that Marcel, so don't you worry

That was quick. I'm not so sure if the style will change though because of a one member difference.
