Overview
- Exhorder said drummer Sasha Horn has stepped away, and frontman Kyle Thomas said he needs a reset to focus on family.
- The band appointed God Forbid’s Corey Pierce as touring drummer for the eastern U.S. run from April 2 to April 19, opening in Morgantown, West Virginia and closing in Cadillac, Michigan.
- Thomas said they reviewed several candidates and chose Pierce for his pedigree and drum-corps training that mirrors original drummer Chris Nail.
- Rehearsals start next week, and Thomas expects Pierce to land closer to the band’s classic drum parts in concert.
- Thomas praised Horn’s power behind the kit and stressed the split is amicable with no bad blood.
