Entheos have decided to move on without guitarist Frank Costa. Though the band are more famously known for consisting of ex-members of The Faceless, Animals As Leaders and more, Costa, bassist Evan Brewer and drummer Navene Koperweis cut their teeth in Animosity together. The following statement was issued on the matter:
“We have parted ways with Frank. There are things in his life that need to be taken care of, which we feel cannot be achieved while being involved in this project. We wish him the best. As for the future of Entheos, it’s full steam ahead. Although Frank has a unique style and brought a cool flavor to our band, he was not the main songwriter.
We have enlisted our friend Malcom Pugh of A Loathing Requiem, Inferi, diskreet to handle guitar duties on our upcoming tour with The Black Dahlia Murder. We are each fans of Malcom‘s work and so excited to be sharing the stage with him. Watch the video to check out a ripping solo of his that will be featured on our upcoming album.”
