Refused Appear To Have Found A New Guitarist

Refused seem to have found a replacement for fired guitarist Jon Brännström. While it isn’t known if he is just a touring member or a permanent fixture, the band have been performing this month (see some footage here) with Mattias Bärjed of The Soundtrack Of Our Lives fame on guitars. There doesn’t seem to be any official word on his addition to the group as of yet however. Refused will release their first new album since 1998 on June 30th, when “Freedom” arrives on Epitaph.
