Spevák Derek Rydquist odišiel z THE FACELESS, hudobne sa chce realizovať radšej u menej známych BEWILDERBIEST. Na nedávnych koncertoch zaňho zaskakoval chlapík menom Geoff Ficco (KAMIKABE, ORGONE), uvidíme, či pôjde o trvalú náhradu.

"Touring"s luster has worn off, and I have found myself reconsidering the role I would like to take in creating and presenting music. Also, being a "professional musician" was kind of ruining my love for music because when you rely on this stuff to make you money, as with anything, it is easy to become bitter towards it. Not that it was all bad — I had the best times I will ever have being in this band — but it is time for me to move on.

I"d like to thank the band and the friends I"ve made through the band for making this not only a life-altering experience, but a life-shaping one. There is an immense amount of talent in this band, and the new vocalist they have is doing a great job, so please keep supporting THE FACELESS. I can now join you in anticipating the new album."
