Lindberg had the following to say about the changes:


"It turns out that our good friend and original bass player, Davey Latter, has to return to his drumming duties with his band, Everest. We knew all along when it came time to tour, it would be difficult if both bands were going out at the same time, and that's exactly what happened."


Lindberg also stated that he has no harsh feelings towards his former band mates in Pennywise, saying:


"On another note: I want to say once again that I have nothing but good will toward everyone in the Pennywise family and the great fans we made over the years. I wish the guys success with their new album and tours, and choose only to support the positive message we worked together for 20 years to establish."


The Black Pacific's debut self-titled album is out now through Side One Dummy Records.
