Manes parts ways with Candlelight Records

Norwegian band Manes has officially parted ways with Candlelight Records, who released the band's latest full-length last May. The group comments: "We'll probably use this 'window of opportunity' to do various stuff, so, expect a frenzy of 'free,' 'open' and 'experimental' activity (not just music) for a while before we start hunting for a 'new home."
