FACE DOWN Announces New Guitarist

November 23, 2007

FACE DOWN, the reactivated Swedish outfit featuring former THE HAUNTED singer Marco Aro, has issued the following update:

"After a very successful show at Ekens Gård we have decided to make Rickard Dahlberg (CONSTRUCDEAD) to a permanent replacement for Joacim Carlsson as the new guitarist in FACE DOWN.

"We are currently working with the last songs on our forthcoming album, 'Mass Murder Agenda'. Hopefully we will enter the studio early next year."

FACE DOWN earlier in the year uploaded a brand new song, entitled "Irreversible", to the group's MySpace page. The pre-production demo, which was completed in late 2006, was the first studio recording to feature new drummer Christofer Barkensjö (KAAMOS, BLACKSHINE).

Christofer Barkensjö joined FACE DOWN in February 2006 as the replacement for Erik Thyselius, who will continue to be involved with CONSTRUCDEAD and TERROR 2000.

FACE DOWN entered the Swedish hard rock album chart at position No. 19 with their last effort, "The Will to Power", back in November 2005. The CD was recorded at Fear and Loathing Studio with engineer/producer Jocke Skog and was mastered at the Cutting Room.
