Grave lose two members; concerts cancelled

It has been tumultuous in the camp of Swedish death metal legends Grave.

The following message was posted on January 6th on their Facebook page:

"The past months have been quite overwhelming in the Grave camp. Two of our long-time members Mika Lagrén (guitar) and Tobias Cristiansson (bass) have jumped ship and are no longer in the band. There is no bad blood between us and we wish them all the luck in their future endeavors.

However this puts an enormous strain on the band and it's hard to see what the future holds and if there even is a future. At this moment nothing is for sure and nothing is taken for granted.
A decision has been made to halt all live activities for 2024 since there really is no line up which makes necessary preparations impossible.
The main focus for this year will be to restructure the band if possible and to hopefully write/record and release a long awaited new studio album.

Into the darkness - Into the...
