An unexpected withdrawal and an artistic reorientation
In a statement released on December 2, 2024, the members of Rings Of Saturn confirmed that they would not participate in the tour scheduled for February 2025. The band explained: “Due to unforeseen challenges with new immigration and tax laws in Europe/UK, Rings Of Saturn will unfortunately not be able to participate in the tour despite our best efforts.”
Rather than touring, the band will focus on a new musical project, as guitarist Lucas Mann added: “We are working on a new album and have some exciting announcements coming. We hope to see you again soon.”
