AVENGED SEVENFOLD Find New Drummer

Posted on January 21, 2011

I know you guys were worried about who Avenged Sevenfold would name their new drummer now that Mike Portnoy is out. The band announced they will be bringing in Arin Ilejay, formerly of so-popular-I've-never-heard-of-them-group Confide. The band stresses this is still on a trial basis and he could be ousted. Makes sense. No point in comitting to anything just yet. Either way, he will join the band on their Nightmare After Christmas tour with Stone Sour and Hollywood Undead. If you want to hear what Ilejay's previous band sounds like, MetalSucks tracked down an awful video.
