In a somewhat sudden turn of events After The Burial bassist Lee Foral has announced that he will be leaving the band. 

After the loss of Justin Lowe, the band released their brand new album this year Dig Deep. Revealing that the man decided to leave owing to spending more time with his family the bassist states : 

“So…. A year ago or so I decided I was done touring so I could focus on my family. I just want to thank all the bands I’ve toured with, all the fans that came out to shows and all of the friends I made on the road. ATB will always be a part of me and I will miss performing. I wish Dan Dan Carle, Trent Hafdahl, and Anthony Notarmaso nothing but the best.“

Foral being a member on every one of the band’s recordings is no doubt a key element of the After The Burial sound, with the band set to embark on their Summer Slaughter appearance it will be interesting who they decide to take as his successor.
