Soul Embraced announces line-up changes

Soul Embraced guitarist William "Rocky" Gray has announced that he will no longer play guitar for the band, instead choosing to focus on Living Sacrifice. Gray will, however, play drums for Soul Embraced, as Lance Garvin is leaving the group. Gray elaborates: "I wanted to let everyone know about some changes going on in the Soul Embraced camp. I want to dedicate my guitar playing to Living Sacrifice and make our new record the best record we've ever done. To do that I need to focus on LS and LS alone as far as my guitar playing goes. I wanted to end my guitar playing for SE on a high note, like a boxer retiring as a champion and I believe I'm doing just that because to me Immune and Dead Alive are highlights in this area of my career and I'm very proud of everything we accomplished. "Lance Garvin will be dedicating all of his efforts to Living Sacrifice as well so in his place I will be playing drums for Soul Embraced so Chad, Devin and Jeff can continue on and start working on a new record. Soul Embraced is NOT breaking up, just changing. It may be the final chapter for Lance and I in one way but in another way it is the first page of a brand new book. I'm excited to see what happens."

Great band, I've liked them for years and good friends of mine. I actually like them better than LS, especially the vocals, I like chad's vocals a lot more than bruce's. I do like living sacrifice, I just like soul embraced's sound better.
