\"Due to personal problems and to other different point of views, Eldritch decided to replace the drummer Dave Simeone with the young and talented Raffahell Dridge.

This is another important loss in the band\'s history, but sometimes it\'s necessary to take different roads. Dave is still a brother and the band will never forget what he\'s done for Eldritch in these last seven years and four albums! We all wish him all the best for his future career.\"

Eldritch released their seventh album, \'Blackenday\' , in April 2007 via Inside Out Music. The cd features guest appearances by Ray Alder (Fates Warning, Redemption, Engine) and Nicholas Van Dyk (Redemption) on the song Broken Road. On all the other tracks you can hear Laura Scappini (In Memory) doing backup vocals. \'Blackenday\' was mixed by RD Liapakis at Music Factory studios in Germany and was mastered by Christian Schmid.
