Jarno´s statement:
It´s time to go ahead. I have to leave Crystalic because my heart isn´t 100% in the band anymore. I´ve always been singer/songwriter and I want to continue my own musical journey. That means composing my own music from now on (as it was before Crystalic). I wish Toni and the rest of the band great future on their career.


On the same breath we´d like to announce the addition of Matti Auerkallio (ex-Farmakon, Foxy Flammable, Avenie, Duality) as Crystalic´s new singer/frontman. Matti is a really talented multi-instrumentalist and he growls like a demon and sings like an angel! So expect some clean vocals on our next album. The recordings are scheduled for the next fall.

Unfortunately we have to cancel our gig in Turku tonight due to a band members sudden illness.

We got a bit bored with the old site layout and decided to upgrade with some new graphics.
Check out also some new live pictures in the media section!

Watch Us Deteriorate saadaan vihdoin kauppojen hyllyille! Julkaisupäivä on 22.8 ja mikäli joillakin kauppiailla ei tällä hetkellä levyä ole, kannattaa heitä pyytää tilaamaan levy.

Everything happens so fast! Gig at Klubi, Turku 12.10 cancelled. Dont worry Turku inhabitants, you have a chance to see new guitarist Mikko in action sooner than expected! Check out gigs.

Crystalic has added a new guitarist in its lineup. New guitarist is Mikko Mattila known from Finnish power metal band Dreamtale. Mikko is an excellent guitar player and of course a huge Death fan!

Eventually the server where our Gbook and Crystalic Shop services are running has been fixed by its maintenance. We are sorry about the downtime. Now, go shopping!

"It's time for me to leave the band. This wasn't easy decision for me but that's what life is, decisions. Some of them are easy to make, some of them are not. I don't have that much time, money nor energy for the band anymore that playing in a band and being a member of a band would require to. It's not fair to other band members either that one is hanging along with half impression while rest of the band loads themselves for the band 110 percent and I don't want to slow down the progress of Crystalic as a band neither guys of accomplishing their dream.

People change while the years go by and I don't feel that playing guitar in a band is the biggest thing for me in life anymore. Somehow my interest towards music has fade little by little a long time by now so I'm going to end band stuffs entirely, at least for now. I will be Crystalic.net webmaster still so I won't be completely gone.

We have been friends with the guys before I joined to Crystalic and we will be friends from now on. So no bad blood between us. Thanks for amazing moments and for hard times as well guys. You guys rule and I wish the very best future for Crystalic. And guys, let the metal flow!"

Cheers,
Eki

Crystalic would like to thank Erik for his years in the band. Erik made unforgettable guitar melodies on Crystalic songs. We wish him all the best in his life. Our friendship will never die! Metal will flow!
