Norwegian drummer Faust (Bård Eithun), the current drummer of Italian black metal act Aborym and session drummer of Emperor during the latter's recent celebration tour, wants to quit every band activity and devote himself to his family. Here is Faust's announcement on Aborym's official Facebook page:
“After the Emperor-gigs this summer it is my intention to calm down the band activities. Basically because I have reached a point where it is difficult to combine being in a band with family and other commitments and I am slightly fed up "being in a band" as such. Sadly this also involves Aborym so it is with a sad heart I have decided to leave the band with immediate effect. Next year I would have been a part of the band for 10 years and I appreciate the three albums we made together. However, it is time to leave the drum chair for someone who are actually able to provide the time and effort the band requires. I wish both Fabban and Paolo Pieri the best of luck with their future endeavours.”
