Finnish gothic metallers
TO/DIE/FORhave uploaded a demo version of a new song,
"Angelica", to their
MySpace page. The track is one of four cuts —alongside
"Unknown III",
"My Hysteria" and
"Sad" (working title) — which will be used to procure new management and a record deal. Vocalist
Jape Perätalo previously stated that "most of the guitars [on the new album] will be played by
Krisse. He is not a band member. He is doing this as a session musician and he is
Tonmi's [
Lillman;
TO/DIE/FOR drummer] friend from Helsinki." He added, "We still do not know who will be
TO/DIE/FOR guitarist in future, but now we have 'one' who could be."
TO/DIE/FOR will play in Lebanon on November 13 at Forum De Beyrouth.
Perätalo states, "We still do not have a new guitarist, so we are using session guitarists [for] this show. There is one guy you already might know, and he is...dadadaaaa...
Mika 'Alli' Ahtiainen. Another guitarist will be
Toni Toikkanen from Helsinki. We are very thankful for their help with this show!"
TO/DIE/FOR's lineup for the Lebanon concert will be as follows:
Jape Perätalo - Vocals
Tonmi Lillman - Drums
Josey Strandman - Bass
Toni Toikkanen - Guitar
Mika Ahtiainen - Guitar
TO/DIE/FOR's fifth album,
