In a shock announcement, Brendan ‘Cygnus’ Brown, the long-time bassist for Melbourne’s Ne Obliviscaris (who has been with the band since its very early days) has parted ways with the band, citing “irreconcilable personal differences”.

In a short post announced via their Facebook account, the band had this to say:

After much deliberation we have decided to part ways with our bassist, Brendan ‘Cygnus’ Brown due to irreconcilable personal differences.

We know this will come as a shock to our fans. Brendan has been a big part of this band for many years, and it’s a decision that has not been taken lightly.

We will still be moving forward with recording our new album in the first half of 2017 as planned, and are looking forward to getting back on the road to perform for you all later this year with a new bassist on board.

It’s a parting neither the band or the fans have taken lightly, but Ne Obliviscaris promise to push on with their plans for their new album, whilst the search for a new bassist begins.
