Jona Weinhofen, who joined BLEEDING THROUGH two years ago, told us during our North American headliner that he would be leaving the band. As he put it, while he enjoyed his time with us, he missed Australia and of course our well-documented financial struggles last year due to Trustkill Records' lack of timely commitment to their contractual obligations (which continue; they are 90 days late on royalties) all led to his decision."

Bleeding Through guitarist (and ex-I Killed The Prom Queen member) Jona Weinhofen has quit the band...

Here's a statement from the band:

"Now that we're home and rested up from Europe we have some news to share with you. Our good friend Dave Nassie — who many of you will recognize not only from NO USE FOR A NAME, INFECTIOUS GROOVES and a brief stint with SUICIDAL TENDENCIES but from Brandan's [Schieppatti, vocals] side project, THE INNOCENT, as well — has joined BLEEDING THROUGH on guitar.
