Visions Of Atlantis - Former Singer Dies At Age 27

Austrian symphonic metal band Visions Of Atlantis has revealed the following update: "In deep mourning and with highest respect we have to notify all Visions Of Atlantis fans that our former female singer Nicole Bogner has passed away at the age of 27 after fighting a severe disease over a long period of time. The band is shocked about the loss of an old VoA-family member but wants to express sincere gratitude to Nicole not only for 5 years of sharing a musical Vision but also for more than a decade of friendship inside and outside of Visions Of Atlantis."

"Without Nicole, Visions Of Atlantis would have never been born and her unique voice and personality were a big part of VoA. With Nicole a great part of Visions Of Atlantis died as well. We will always treasure your warm hearted soul, you will never be forgotten Nici... All fans and followers are invited to join the In Memoriam Nicole Bogner-Page here on Facebook to express their grief and respect to this great artist and person! Rest in Peace Nicole and thank you!"

Ernis 狼獾 Posts: 6815	Permalink 06.01.2012 - 23:30 Ernis 狼獾 Posts: 6815 This is very sad news. Although the music of Visions of Atlantis never captivated me that much I always wondered what happened to Nicole Bogner because she was like Tarja's younger sister. She had all the prerequisites for becoming a renowned symphonic metal vocalist like Turunen. Sad that she wasn't discovered by any top class band after her departure from VoA. Damn... she could've even fronted Nightwish. Loading...

Well this year is starting as shit as the rest. It is actually mathematically very unlikely that fewer metal performers die this year than the previous. The probability is much higher that way more people will die this year, so lets not act all surprised. Loading...
