The Last Ten Seconds Of Life has truly proven they’re one of the most hard working bands out there. They’re constantly touring and releasing music, and with their most recent album Soulless Hymns, it really seemed like the band was starting to achieve the success they’d been working towards…until vocalist Storm Strope left the band in late 2015.
It’s true that losing a vocalist is a difficult position to be in. A band’s identity can be wrecked with a unique and talented vocalist leaves. But there’s some bands that are better suited for a vocal change than others – and TLTSOL may have found a great replacement. Who is it, though? You may know him as the former vocalist for My Bitter End (who were criminally underrated in their tenure as a band) – but if that hint isn’t enough, you’ll have to read below for the statement from the band.
In January we announced tryouts to take over vocals. We first want to thank everyone and anyone that posted a submission or spread the word about the process. We had over 100 submissions from all over the US and outside the US as well. It is amazing how much talent and drive there is from musicians/vocalists within the music community and we are blown away by how many take interest in this band. With that said, we slowly narrowed down the submissions through a list of different factors and have decided that John Robert C will be taking over the vocalist position. If you attended the Arsonists get all the girls tour or the Carnifex tour in November he was filling in then and now he will be our full time front man. Be on the lookout for a tour in the Summer with some great bands and for studio updates as we go into Atrium Audio to record our next full length album.
