Tech death metal operatives from Finland ​Omnivortex revealed that vocalist Niko Lindman has decided to step down as the lead vocalist due to schedule issues. The main frontman-helm will be taken over by lead guitarist Severi Saarioja alongside with drummer Aaro Koskinen, with the two sharing vocal duties.

Statement from the band as follows: "The mainman behind the otherworldly, demonic voice on our debut album Diagrams Of Consciousness, Niko Lindman, has decided to step down as the lead vocalist due to schedule issues. Niko will remain a very close friend, and we want to thank him for an amazing performance on the album and for all the know-how starting out as a band.

"The main frontman-helm will be taken over by lead guitarist Severi Saarioja alongside with drummer Aaro Koskinen, with the two sharing vocal duties. We're extremely excited by this, and can't wait for you guys to hear what we've been working on. That being said, we're currently at the demo-stage of our sophomore album. We will hopefully hit the studio next year, but as of today, we do not have any specific dates set up. What we can say is that the album is shaping out to be a bit more aggressive and slightly darker.

"While working with the new demos, we're currently trying to set up a few more shows to play."
