The Danish thrash metal veterans will play a special show at Kings And Lions in Copenhagen on May 4, celebrating the band's 30th anniversary this year. It's also the last Danish gig with Carsten. Comments the departing drummer:

"For personal reasons, I have chosen to leave the Danish thrash metal band Artillery. It's something I've thought about for a long time and I have already informed the guys in the band and I can announce that the last shows I'm playing with Artillery will be in South America. And to all the nice people I have met during my time in Artillery, I will just say a huge thank you to; I will never forget the good reception and response I have received.

After the last show, Carsten will take a short break and then he will probably go back to his roots and try to find some people in the Copenhagen area who want to play some good old-fashioned punk rock.
