German thrashers Bonded revealed that they have recently parted ways with vocalist Ingo Bajonczak. His successor, Manuel Bigus (Blodtåke, Path Of Golconda), has already been introduced and performed first show with the band this past weekend.




Statement from the group: "Hey guys, some of you may have seen it in the posts from last weekend's Rock & Metal Dayz. Bonded were on stage for the first time with a new vocalist. Unfortunately, the time pressure for our Ingo has become too huge due to various obligations and together we had to draw the consequences. The decision to go our separate ways was very difficult for everyone, but we made it amicably a few weeks ago. Ingo is a great person and musician, with his unique voice and his creativity he made a significant contribution to Bonded being able to release two great thrash albums.

"Dear Ingo, we remain friends and thank you for your kindness, your passion and the commitment you have shown us. We wish you all the best for the future."

Ingo Bajonczak comments: Ladies and gentlemen, dear Bonded fans, unfortunately I have to announce my split from Bonded at this point. Because of private+professional circumstances it is impossible for me to keep up with the requirements of the business, so that we consensualy decided to part ways, even with a heavy heart.

"I am more than happy for the time+experiences we had together and damn proud to have created+produced 2 timeless Thrash Metal Classics on record. I wish the boys from Bonded+my successor only the best for the future and wanna thank all fans, friends and supporters explicitly! Thrash or be thrashed!"
