Once again we found ourselves out of a bassplayer when Pär Sving suddenly decided to leave the band earlier this year. To solve the problem we went back to the vast catalogue of previous members in Sorcery and found a name we felt that we were not really done with and now we are pleased to reveal that we once again teamed up with a long lost friend, Mikael Carlsson. He was first involved with the band in 2011 to 2013 and have wandered astray for a while but now he is home where he belong. He will make his first appearance with the band since 2012 on December 14 in Sandviken, Sweden. It is going to be great. Don’t miss it out.

New drummer and a triumphant return to Howl From The Coffin Festival.
News of the bands whereabouts have been low for some time now but here we go.
First of all we would like to welcome Tommy Holmer as a new drummer in Sorcery. Emil decided to leave us at the end of last year and yet again we stood there with an empty drumstool. Tommy’s name was one of the first that came up and it didn’t take long before we knew he was the right guy for the spot. The pre-work of the next album is slowly moving forward and some songs are starting to get ready. This will be great, I can assure you.
We are returning to one of the most plesant festivals of this summer, Howl from the coffin. We played there last year and for all of you who missed it then, here’s your chance to experience some great Music in a real underground fashion. Check out our upcoming gig page for more details. Bring all of your friends and we’ll see you there.
