News : Claim the Throne line-up changes and album launch

After a four month break from the live scene, Claim the Throne are back to pillage your browns and celebrate a victorious year with the release of their third cd, ‘Triumph and Beyond. The band have also announced local folk-grindisseur and A grade celebrity Glenn Dyson to the bands ranks, replaceing founding guitarist Oliver Soos.

“It has been a massive year for us, having the privilege of playing tons of great local shows as well as our first national tour, and we are extremely proud of our hard work on the new album and can’t wait to share it with you!

Furthermore, got some news for ya…

It brings us much sadness to announce the departure of founding member, guitarist and author Oliver Soos aka Havanti. Oli’s pleasant nature and hilarious ideas helped to form the personality of Claim The Throne, and this will continue to flow in dedication to him. Oli leaves us to return to live in Slovakia, best of luck our friend!

The replacement for Oli is no stranger to the Claim The Throne ranks, he has filled in for us before, but now we welcome Glenn Dyson (Choke, Cuntscrape, Pathogen) as a permanent guitarist in the band and look forward to the rawkus times ahead! He will begin with us in the new year, so until then we have the very talented Owen Thomas (Dyscord) lending his skills for a few shows, he played at Bastardfest with us last week and rocks the f*k.

Triumph and Beyond will be available from 4th December through Prime Cuts Music, and this date also marks the official release party.

Can’t wait to announce some more shows, including some interstate dates too! “
