Iced Earth vocalist Matt Barlow has decided to leave the band again after the summer festivals, due to conflicts between the full agenda of the band with several concerts and tours and his family life.
Matt was with the band from 1992 until 2003, when he left for about the same reasons. Then he returned in 2007, when they assumed the band would do less tours.
But the fact that the record labels take the giant share of the records income, forces bands, in order to survive, to do as much concerts as they possibly can, which led to Barlow leaving Iced Earth again after the summer.
The band is now looking for a new singer, as it is unlikely that Tim Owens, that replaced him the first time he quit, is available to return to the band, after the way he was fired when Barlow decided he wanted to return in 2007.
