Peter Dolving lashes out at The Haunted

Peter Dolving, former singer for The Haunted, has released a statement explaining why he left the band early this year. Dolving was particularly scathing in his assessment of brothers Anders Bjoerler (guitar) and Jonas Bjoerler (bass), saying "I deeply question whether [they] have the slightest clue what deep loving friendships, joy and caring is even about." Additionally, Dolving states that drug use was rampant amongst members of the band and its crew:
"The reason I up and said 'fuck it' was this; There were drugs involved within the band, and crew members whose alcoholism/drugabuse was just overlooked and ignored because the individuals in question was cheaper than anyone else and delivered the goods. Local promotors and crew were being treated like they were somekind of underlings and promotors were required to get drugs, even in places as extremely high risk as China and Thailand. Drugs were smuggled. "I am certain they will comment this to make themslf 'free of responsiblity' but when addiction is involved in a group there is no such thing as 'Me me me'. One either says 'No,' or accepts the mutual responsibility. That's how it works, that's the adult way of dealing with that type of dilemma. Not scapegoating individuals with a fucking disease."

Who gives a shit? The Haunted released a nu-metal album. No one cares about them anymore.

Stupid_News_Poster 8/12/2012 6:47:37 PM

"This whole fck of a botched c-ck-up." Not sure what he's saying, but it describes the band perfectly.

northside_nick 8/12/2012 6:57:22 PM

They had to be on drugs to perform? Makes sense, you'd have to be high as a fcking kite to actually like their music

anonymous 8/12/2012 7:26:38 PM

hes the first to scapegoat everyone else and pass the blame on them, so no one else is allowed to now.

withoutashield 8/12/2012 8:04:19 PM

Dolving is awful. Marco is on the two best albums and is a great frontman.

sandpaperseatbelts 8/12/2012 9:21:15 PM

Only good albums are The Haunted, The Haunted Me Me Do It, and One Kill Wonder. The rest suck a gigantic length.

anonymous 8/14/2012 5:17:10 PM

LOL @ anyone risking their life to smuggle in drugs to asian countries for the haunted lol. Maybe one of you pssy promoters or opening bands should get some guts and tell these gays off.

anonymous 8/14/2012 5:19:56 PM

The two brothers look like they have down syndrome anyway. Maybe if you tell them that they will inject more heroine to flush your words from their mind and OD. This is literally all you have to do.. YO jonas, you a downie!?? End of haunted
