Guitarist and vocalist Clinton Appelhanz has parted ways as well. The remaining band members state on their website:

\"[We] would like to personaly thank these guys for their dedication and hard work to this project and let people know that \"Echoes Of Decimation\" [Origin\'s third and most recent album] could not have been done without them.\"

Origin is currently looking for a replacement sticksman. Interested? Serious inquiries only can contact the band by e-mail.

In the meantime, King and Appelhanz have completed work on a full-length album with their new band Unmerciful.

This outfit also features in its ranks former Origin member/Cannibal Corpse touring guitarist Jeremy Turner.

The band, who describe their musical style as \"modern blasting American death metal,\" are currently looking for a label to release their music.
