Brazilian doomsters DESOLATE WAYS have announced another line-up change. Drummer Ricardo Giordano has left the band to dedicate his time to other musical projects. After several auditions with other drummers, the band have enlisted Igo Menegaz, who returns to the band.

About this lineup change guitarist Elizeu Hainzenreder says: "We are very satisfied with the return of Igo as Desolate Ways' drummer. We are a band which has the luck that all the members were are childhood friends, it makes us a real family. The concerts to promote Tearful will continue untill the end of the year, when we will concentrate on the new album."

The new line-up is confirmed for South America's three-day festival River Rock (www.riverrock.com.br), which is being held from August 10th-12th.

Samples of the new album are available in the band's MySpace page.
