Kataklysm frontman and Rock The Nation USA's general manager Maurizio Iacono recently commented: "As 2008's Paganfest was a great discovery for many people and a HUGE success, we are proud to bring it back again for 2009! The demand for the tour is growing and people are really excited. We chose to bring the best and some new blood as well for the next run. We hope (like this year) that all the pagan followers will come back in big numbers and raise their drinks in the air and celebrate a majestic evening not to be forgotten anytime soon!"

Ensiferum - Vocalist To Sit Out Russian Shows

Ensiferum have posted the following announcement directed at their Russian fans:

"Petri Lindroos is not able to perform at our shows in Russia due to serious illness. We all hope for speedy recovery for him in coming weeks. Cancellation was not an option to us because we dont want to let you guys down and possible new dates would have been far in future. Luckily we were able to get ex-member Jukka-Pekka Miettinen to play guitar for these shows and vocals will be growled by Sami Hinkka.

We are truly looking forward for these special shows and the evening will be a blast with you guys! See you in Moscow and St. Petersburg!"

15.11.08 Russia, Moscow, Tochka club
16.11.08 Russia, St.Petersburg, Orlandina Club
