Guitarist Daniel “DL” Laskiewicz, who has been writing music for Massachusetts metallers THE ACACIA STRAIN but hasn’t toured with the band for several years, will not be part of the creative team on the group’s future albums.
Says Laskiewicz in a posting on his Facebook page: “Well, if you haven’t noticed, I haven’t played a show with THE ACACIA STRAIN in years and I’ve just been writing the music for them. I’ve been informed today that they will continue on without me, meaning shows and writing albums. This is totally understandable and I wish the band the best. I’ll be around, as I’m still recording and producing and also have another project in the works. So once again, I WILL NOT be writing for THE ACACIA STRAIN anymore. It’s been fun tas, later!”
THE ACACIA STRAIN’s most recent album is 2012’s Death is the Only Mortal, which was released by Rise Records.
