TRISTANIA Keyboardist To Assume New Role

February 9, 2005

TRISTANIA keyboardist/programmer Einar Moen has "decided to assume a new role with the band," according to a posting on the group's web site. "He will not be accompanying them on tour — but fear not — he is still an active member and will use this period to work on new material. Many factors influence this decision — and he will re-evaluate whether to return to touring at a later date."

As previously reported, TRISTANIA have finished filming a video for the track "Equilibrium". Director Ralf Strathmann was flown in from Los Angeles to work on this project, which was completed in the old Tou Brewery in Stavanger, Norway.

TRISTANIA will support NIGHTWISH on a 10-date run through the U.K., Belgium and Germany beginning in mid-February. A South American tour with DARK TRANQUILLITY and KREATOR will follow in March.

TRISTANIA's new album, "Ashes", was release last month through SPV Records.
