This is due to insurmountable differences of musical opinion, but the rest of the band sincerely wish ZP great success with his future projects.

While the creative core members have begun writing the band’s fifth album, they have also started a worldwide search for a new vocalist. “We are looking for a powerful, melodic singer to write a new chapter of DragonForce with us.” said guitarist Herman Li.

Anyone wishing to audition for the vacant position should apply following the instructions at this web address www.dragonforce.com/audition

Outcry Collective will be heading to these dates straight from their own co-headline 16-date UK tour with The Computers 15th March – 1st April.

Studio blog can be seen below:

The hotly tipped Blackpool based pop-punkers have been nailed down at Longwave Studio with producer Romesh Dodangoda (Kids In Glass Houses, Funeral For A Friend, The Blackout etc.) finishing the album and will be playing a free all-ages hometown show this week showcasing new songs from the recording sessions:

5 March – Blackpool Central Library

To coincide with his 19 date UK March tour, Xtra Mile Recordings are releasing ‘Nintendo’ as a download-only single with his cover of ‘Abraham, Martin and John’ as the leading B side.

‘Nintendo’ starts as a soft piano ballad regarding seafront conversations and softly spoken plans before building to climax which slowly winds down again while reminiscing on simple pleasures and missed appointments. It’s songs like this that remind you that you need to enjoy the simple things in life and to step off the highway once in a while.

His cover of ‘Abraham, Martin and John’ is a thoroughly moving track. Although it was originally written for soul legend Dick Hollar you would be mistaken for thinking that this track was made with Chris in mind. You can imagine him spending a quiet moment back home wondering what happened to his own friends which fell aside the roadside and will most likely begin wondering about your own old pals.

If this single is anything to go by, I can see the ‘Love Is Not Rescue’ being the album that will, at worst, satisfy his existing fans and at best bring him some of the recognition he so rightly deserves.
