Arsis have announced that drummer Mike Van Dyne has decided to quit the band for a second time. Van Dyne has issued the following statement regarding his departure: "After five label releases and hundreds of shows in 19 countries, it's time to move forward and pursue my career full-time. The last fully-completed Arsis song I contributed to was 'Since The Shadows' (released online last year), and it's one of my favorites. Through the years, I've accomplished everything in music I wanted to do. Not many people can say that, and I consider myself fortunate for having so many great experiences."
