Norma Jean – Davidson steigt aus
Die Christliche Metalcore Band Norma Jean hat sich nun von ihrem Drummer Daniel Davidson getrennt, als Begründung hierfür wurden persönliche Differenzen genannt. Wer zukünftig als Drummer für Daniel Davison bei Norma Jean am Schlagzeug sitzen wird ist noch nicht bekannt.
Hier das Statement:
After much time, prayer, council, and consideration, I have come to an important personal decision. My decision is that as of November 8th, 2007 I will no longer be a part of Norma Jean.
As many of you know, Norma Jean is considered a ‚Christian band,‘ and it is in fact made up of 5 guys who are all Christians. This is something that is a huge part of my life, and something that I take very seriously. Recently I have come to the point in my life where I no longer see Norma Jean as a ministry, and for me to continue in the band, saying that it is, would in my opinion, be wrong. I am not leaving the band on bad terms with any of the guys, but there are differences between us, both personal and spiritual, that I felt were too great for me continue on with, or ignore any longer.
We as a band have in some ways worked towards making things right in the areas where we differed…but for me, the feelings did not change, and we continued to grow apart. So after giving these things much time and thought, I have come to the place where I know that it is right for me to be finished. Making the choice to step away from something that I have been a part of for 10 years, has not been the easiest of tasks. But do know that this is not a hasty decision by any means. I have total Peace and confidence in my choice.
The band will continue without me. This winter the guys will begin writing for a new record. And I wish the best for them.
Lastly, I would like to thank every one of you, who over the years have supported me and this band. We could not have done anything without you. You all really mean so much to me. I hope to see as many of you as possible on my last tour, and thank you face to face for supporting our band, and for being a part of what we have been doing for all of these years. I will never forget the times that we all have shared. I am going to miss Norma Jean dearly, but I know that this is a step that I have to take.
