Crashdiet Guitarist Confirms New Singer Quit And Rejoined Band In September

November 11

Brian Rademacher of Rock Eyez recently conducted an interview with CRASHDIET guitarist Martin Sweet. An excerpt from the chat follows:

Rock Eyez: Can you please explain why two weeks before the album was released and the fall 2007 tour already booked that there was a post on Blabbermouth that Ollie had notified the band that he no longer wanted to be the new singer and had left CRASHDIET? Was this just a false rumor or was there some truth and the rest of the band and Universal Records had to talk him into staying?

Martin Sweet: Well, there is some amount of truth in it. But it's like a relationship with a girlfriend. Sometimes things move forward too fast and you panic and try to pull the brakes. Sometimes it takes a break-up to make the relationship better! But the strange part is how it leaked out. I mean we solved the issues (which were basically only partial issues) pretty much the day after, but by then, it had somehow already leaked. But it's nice to see that people care and that is a good feeling.
