[Ryan Imhof]

Dearly Departed (http://dearlydepartedmusic.com/) has recently replaced former guitarist Ryan, who left the band a few weeks prior, with Jon Cox the former guitarist of From Autumn To Ashes (http://www.fromautumntoashes.com/newsite/).

ooooh, juicy news

yeah im a little confused. Isn't Jon still in the band, i thought he replaced scott when he left fata

i can see it coming, first biology takes two members and now this... from autumn to ashes has had a great run but i don't think i could stand them breaking up at this point in time. some people have said they've gone downhill after too bad you're beautiful but i think all three major releases have had their strong points. hopefully they stay together for just ONE more.... but i honestly can't see it happening with all of these damned side projects.

I honestly would rather a new Dearly Departed record than a new FATA record. This is mainly based on the fact that though I did enjoy the last two FATA albums, they were a let down compared to Too Bad You're Beautiful. Dearly Departed however I have been a fan of since they started (I was a huge Inside and Tension fan so this was a natural progression) and have loved everything they have put out.

Though I don't wish FATA to break up, if they did I would say they had a good run and I look forward to all the side projects. I will also say that the new Dearly Departed tracks they played at the show in December were amazing and I expect the rest of the stuff they are writing now to be just as good.

abandon your friends was a pretty weak cd. too bad your beautiful is a 10/10, fiction we live is 9/10 and abandon your friends is 5/10 if even that

Funny, I just heard that Day of Contempt has changed their name to The Dear & Departed following departure of their singer.

For a moment I thought this was the same band...
