When did this happen? I went to Secret Sphere's website to check on when the new album was coming out and found this:
SECRET SPHERE PARTS WAYS WITH SINGER ROBERTO RAMON MESSINA
After 12 years, 6 albums, and tours around the world, Roberto has decided to leave the band due to a different point of view concerning the musical directions. We are very thankful for what Roberto did for the band during all these years, we are friends before musicians , he was with us since the beginning and the fans are really closed to his voice. The split happened during the recordings of the 7th album, but in a friendly way we wish Roberto all the best for his future. We still have in our hands our best album so far and we are 100% concentrated to give to the band a new incredible voice. A new singer means to give a new face to the band and our fans deserve the best and we'll give 'em the best!
