Kolkata-based metal outfit Chronic Xorn has announced recently that they have parted ways with their longtime bassist Soumyadeep Das. Also, the band has wasted no time to rope in a replacement and announced that Kanad Roy will be filling in the bass duties left void by the former’s departure.
In a social media post, Chronic Xorn has disclosed this development, stating that the decision was a mutual one taken keeping in mind Soumyadeep’s higher studies endeavor. The band’s latest bass recruit, Kanad Roy is not new to the Chronic Xorn as he had played and shared the stage with them on multiple occasions in the past, even pre-dating Soumyadeep joining the band.
The official post by the band read, “Ladies and gentlemen, we are really stoked to introduce to you all Kanad Roy as our new bassist. He was already in the fam but now he is going to permanently take on the “Bass Duties” for CHRONIC XORN. Soumyadeep, our ex-bassist, left the band for his higher studies and we are really proud of him and wish him all the best in his future endeavors. He will always be a part of Xorn and we really want to thank him wholeheartedly for his contribution towards the band.”
Adding to that, the post also said, “Kanad made quite a few appearances with us in the past before Soumyadeep joined, but due to the commitment towards his own band, he couldn’t be a permanent part of Xorn. Nevertheless, let us all welcome Kanad to the CX Family. 🤘🏻🤘🏻”
Chronic Xorn was formed back in 2007, and throughout the years the metalcore outfit has witnessed several line-up changes. To date, the band has released two EPs, ‘Death Destruction Sermon’ (2010), ‘For These Sins Who Must Die’ (2017), and one full-length album titled ‘From Mercy’ back in 2012. Over the years, all of the band’s aforementioned releases have been met with critical responses and significant radio airplay, both in India and abroad.
