The Crown has parted ways with drummer Henrik Axelsson, who was in the band between 2016 and present day. The Crown has announced Mikael Norén as their new drummer, who previously played with current guitarist Robin Sörqvist in Impious.
"Sometimes things come to an end," said The Crown in their statement. "We have decided to part ways with Henrik, he has been a kickass drummer and a solid Viking Punk in this band for 7 years. We part on mutual, good terms and would like to thank him and wish him all the best for his future.
"As for the rest of us – We have onboarded an amazing drummer in Mikael Norén, an old friend of ours that previously also played in Impious together with Robin. We believe that we will make one hell of a team for 2023. We can't wait to see you all.
The Crown Never Dies!"
In a separate statement, The Crown also confirmed they're working on the follow-up to their 2021 record Royal Destroyer.
