Frencg folk black metal warlords Adaryn in may the 17th posted, that drummer Milan Olivier aka Tàirneanach leaving band

Band posted statement (translated from french)

Cheers to all of you!
It was the last time we played with our dear Milan (a.k.a Tàirneanach) this Friday, May 13, 2022. Been behind the bars since November 2015, when the band was formed, now it's official that he's leaving.
Here is his statement:
"And here we are!"
Never thought I'd ever have to say this, but I'm leaving Adaryn!
I don't have any more time to dedicate to this project, I'm afraid to slow it down, see disappointing band members. Adaryn it's also some rhythmic requirements, drumming techniques that sometimes exceed mine and a common work function that no longer suits me... I actually prefer to continue making progress more "scholarly" and less ambitious.
I will never forget those moments spent in rehearsals and concerts with Damien, Camille, Matthieu, Ulysse, Clément and most recently Jordan and Ludovic who joined the band. Adaryn is for me: 23 concerts, from the very first on June 3, 2017 at the Bocal to the last on May 13, 2022 at Valhalla, a demo, an album and a music video, which for the amateur musician I am, is huge.
I still remember the first time Damien asked me at Motocultor camping in 2015: "I'm looking for a drummer for a folk metal project, you interested?" ". Me : ' GO ! "The project came together so quickly, that in a few rehearsals the band already had some synergy." I cannot describe our cohesion and our good communion. Sure. Nope. s didn't understand how we managed to manage so many rhythm and tempo changes. I think this is what makes Adaryn's strength, this, and this on stage energy we give off. In my opinion, Adaryn is a band made for the stage.
I greatly appreciate their investment and patience. And yes, not always obvious to support my tatapouf tatapoum at 100 dB! #breakingtheviolinistsears
Thank you again for all the wonderful and sometimes difficult times we spent together, never would I have imagined this amazing experience. I will miss you guys ❤
Special thanks for those people who helped us. and. s, supported.e.s and participated. and. s all this time during: Benoît, Hugo, Marc, Philippe, Jeremy, Pierre, Cathou, Stephanie, Childéric, Nicolas, Kevin, Joscelin, Alexis and my parents. (Sorry if I forget)
Thanks to all the organizers. trice. s concerts and festivals where we were able to perform as well as the bands we played with.
Thanks to our audience and friends who supported us and came to our concerts.
I wish Adaryn to continue ascending and persisting in time, there are many ideas, ambitions and creativity in this musical project!
P. S: I remain present in the Caenaese Metal music scene with my other project: Heirstale "
Thank you for these years of playing with us, your investment, your kindness, your humor and your charisma!
It's with emotions that we look back on the recording sessions, first for our demo (2016) then our album (2019), and the many concerts you had to shake the walls with every cymbal.
We'll miss you, and wish you all the best that life has to offer.
Nevertheless, you people who listen to us will be able to continue to follow the work of Milan Heirstale the training in , which has just been released a demo that you can find on YouTube. For fun, Benoit is also in this project and has been our sound engineer for a long time. We wish you all the best!
See you soon,
Take care of yourself!
Adaryn
