While the sudden nature of this is weird, I do suspect he'll eventually get another album together. Based on his earlier releases, I expect it will be good.

I must add that it's REALLY weird that nothing of this is on planetblaze.

Oh yeah, I'm sure things are fine for him personally. Professionally though, it has to be tough.

Ah, I didn't know if his band was full-time part of Blaze or not.

Definitely, I really like the Blaze solo albums. And the new song that was leaked however long ago was pretty cool.

This news gives Blaze a headache.

Wow, this really sucks. I guess we'll have to wait even longer now for a new BLAZE album.

Yeah, the article says that the new songs are mostly finished, but this will probably delay things. Unless he already has a new band picked out and the old band was just the last to know. You know how it goes when your girlfriend is going out with someone else you are usually the last to know!

A message from Blaze from planetblaze......

"Dear friends and fans.

Some of you may be worried about rumours that I am dead. I am not dead.
Some of you may have heard that BLAZE the band is finished. It is just beginning.

There are inevitable changes in life. We have all been subjected to and endured changes that we didn't want but most of us know that without change there cannot be growth. For things to grow they need strong roots to keep them in the ground so that when the big storms of life come they can survive and are not taken by the wind. A tall building must have a strong foundations so it can stand and be unaffected by the changing seasons of this world, so it is with everything and so it is with my band.

My roots have been metal music. My foundations have been the loyal fans and friends and family that have stood by me and made me keep believing in the dream I started with, no man could ask for better support.

I will see some of you in Poland at the Metalmania Festival on 24th March. There I will be with the greatest BLAZE band ever, there I will play the greatest show of my life. All is written.

BB "

I wonder if that means he's getting the original guys back together. That would be a good thing.

Hmm. Now that is an interesting thought.
