NO CONTROL Radio HD2 Chart and Adds:12/10/12

Some of these may start to look a little weird with the addition of Christmahannakwanza music to the HD2 channel, but overall not reinventing the wheel in December. I am taking it easy, not rocking the boat, phoning it in basically...maybe not entirely, but you get my drift, I am focused on gifts, mistletoe and metal. Couple of new additions this week officially, the Scion A/V series of metal releases added a good one with Arsis, and a free download to boot...

Arsis Drummer Mike Van Dyne Quits

Normally a lineup change in a band is not the biggest news, personnel changes seems to be a regular occurrence in the metal world, but this time it might spell the demise of a pretty decent band. With guitarist Nick Cordle tapped to replace Christopher Amott in Arch Enemy, the departure of founding member Mike Van Dyne could be the writing on the wall for the Virginia death metal band. an excerpt from Van Dyne's statement:

"After five label releases and hundreds of shows in 19 countries, it's time to move forward and pursue my career full-time.  

The last fully-completed ARSIS song I contributed to was 'Since The Shadows' (released online last year), and it's one of my favorites.

Through the years, I've accomplished everything in music I wanted to do. Not many people can say that, and I consider myself fortunate for having so many great experiences."

Hopefully founding member James Malone can keep things together and press on with new material, considering the final verdict on Cordle's role in the band has yet to be determined and their future in the balance.

Christopher Amott Leaves Arch Enemy

Guitarist Christopher Amott has released the following statement after announcing his departure as a founding member of Arch Enemy:

I have left Arch Enemy to pursue my solo career. I'm gonna continue to be very active in music, working with all kinds of styles — this does not rule out metal. I have just recorded a new solo album, set to be released in April.

Arch Enemy has recruited 26-year-old American guitarist Nick Cordle (ARSIS) to replace Christopher. The band said in a statement,

There is no drama behind the scenes here. This is the best way forward for all involved. Christopher simply isn't into playing extreme metal anymore. We have already chosen and rehearsed with a new guitar player and we will complete the 'Khaos Legions' 2012 touring cycle as planned." 

Added Christopher's brother, Arch Enemy guitarist Michael Amott: "Nick was my first choice as he ticks all the right boxes for Arch Enemy with his musicality and technicality as well as his personality and dedication. [We are] looking forward to having him join us stage, the rehearsals have shown we have a devastating twin axe attack going on!

Christopher Amott started his career in music in 1995 as a founding creative force and guitarist in Arch Enemy. In this context, he is known for his tastefully technical guitar work and memorably emotive playing style.
