After the sad news of last week, it is time for some happy thoughts!
We proudly announce Spit will be replaced by Robert, aka Raw Bird, aka “that funny-looking dude”, who previously handled bass duties for bands such as Samaritan, Price to Pay, and Divine Sins. Read for a statement below!

As most of you know, over the course of the last year we had to periodically replace Spit due to him being involved in other musical projects and, subsequently, a severed achilles tendon. For the last few months we have relied heavily on Rob to help us out on bass so that the MCB machine could keep grinding on. Without him we would have had a hard time tying all the shows together and staying out on the road during the summer.

Therefore, when the time came for us to part ways with Spit, we didn’t need to think very long abut who we were going to ask; Rob was simply the most qualified man for the job. Add to that the fact that, like us, he doesn’t have a personal life and it was a real no-brainer. Fortunately Rob gladly accepted the offer, saving us the hassle of having to audition the imminent “bassplayers who are actually just downgraded guitarplayers”.

Here’s Rob’s thoughts on him joining the ranks:

“Cool!”

Finally, we would like to add that we are extremely grateful to both Spit and Rob for allowing MCB to transition between personnel so smoothly and without any bad blood.

One could not wish for greater friends.

Peace,
