Dreaded Silence welcomes Chris Helme![views:72566][posts:4]_________________________________ [Jun 4,2010 8:46pm - sinistas ""] It is with great regret that we announce that we have parted ways with Reggie Payne. While he’s been a big part of the band over the last couple of years, Reggie has been uncertain about his ability to commit to the band long-term, and has been very gracious and understanding of our need for stability right now. Reg was a blast to play with, and brought some serious talent to the band. We wish him nothing but the best. On that note, we would like to welcome Chris Helme (Smite The Righteous, ex-The Accursed, Polaris, Withered Sun) to the band. Chris, as many of you know, is very accomplished, and when he offered to fill in, we jumped at the chance. We’re very excited about working with him, and can’t wait to start playing out. Thankfully, that’s only a week away…Hit up Ralph’s next Friday or O’Brien’s in two weeks to see the new lineup in action! http://www.dreadedsilence.com/ |

| __________________________________ [Jun 5,2010 6:06pm - DreadKill ""] I was hoping someone would ask what happened to our old drummer so I could say that he spontaneously combusted. Reggie is a great dude and we really enjoyed playing with him. Chris has been a good friend of ours for a long time and is one of the best drummers around, so I'm thrilled to have him onboard. |
