Winds Of Plague Finish Recording New Album And Lose A Member

08/01/2012
. Winds Of Plague just finished recording their new album and are hitting the road this week for The All Star Tour but you won't see Art Cruz behind the drum kit as the band has officially parted ways with drummer due to creative differences.

"After many years of having Art Cruz with us we have decided its best for both parties involved to go our separate ways," states vocalist Johnny Plague. "Art is a great drummer and I'm sure he will be back behind the drums one way or another soon."

Art Cruz adds, "I'm very thankful for the experience. I love those dudes. I will continue to play drums and on the business side, I am currently pursuing artist management. To keep up with what I'm doing, follow me on twitter at twitter.com/artimusplague."

Without missing a beat, Winds Of Plague is currently holed up in the studio working on follow-up to Against The World. "We just finished recording our new album in which we recruited long time friend Brandon Gallindo to record as well as fill in for The All Stars Tour starting this week! See you soon!!!" The All Stars Tour kicks off on August 3rd.
