Carnifex have announced that their lead guitarist Jordan Lockrey has left the band and that Devildriver‘s Neal Tiemann is set to fill-in for the band’s immediate tour dates. The band offered the following comments regarding the departure:
“We want to wish Jordan Lockrey the best of everything as he departs Carnifex after eight years, three amazing records and countless tours. We will be forever thankful for the creativity and musical vision Jordan brought to Carnifex. Please wish him well.”
Lockrey himself offered:
“I want to thank the guys for seeing something in me and bringing me into the group. The last eight years have been absolutely insane. I never thought I’d have a chance to create and perform music on this level with such talented musicians. Unfortunately, my time in Carnifex has come to an end. I love the guys and wish them the best of luck on these upcoming tours!”
