Crystal Lake part ways with Vo. John

PK from Prompts will jump in for their japanese tour now.

Quite a shame to see them finally finding their sound again and now having to see John depart again. But, well, Parenthood is something that definitely should go first, so my respect there.

Oh wow.

So what does this mean for their tour with Entheos and Jinjer?

They will switch singers until they find a new permanent one.

For myself I never got into John as a new singer. I was a huge Crystal Lake fan until Ryo left and i kinda lost my interest after seeing them live with John. So I hope the new singer will spark my interest again. All the best for John anyways!

That means the new singer needs a VISA. That was my main concern.

Yeah, I left the CL boat when Ryo left too.

I enjoyed The Weight Of Sound but unfortunately I, too, kinda fell off after Ryo left. :frowning: Hopefully they’ll find a permanent singer eventually.

Same.

First i was not captivated by john either, however, for me the recently released album was a blast…i think the full lenght was one of the best metalalbums of 2026 so far! Most folks liked ryo better (me included), but the songwriting remained typically CL, thats why i did not drop them

This was their third vocalist juez what is happening :eyes:

I think it’s really commendable that he realized it wasn’t going to work and decided to prioritize his family. I can’t imagine that was an easy decision.
