"According to many reports from THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER's last show on tour with BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME, CEPHALIC CARNAGE and INTO THE MOAT, drummer Zach Gibson has been asked to leave the band. In addition, the band's forthcoming Canadian tour with A LIFE ONCE LOST and THE END may be jeopardy. No other information is available at this time."

Looks like he'll be going back to Gutrot?

I was just looking them up on Metal Archives too, strange.

I read that on smnnews when they put it up. I think it was saturday night.
I didn't post it cause I saw slasher on here and didn't want to double post.

another MB drummer left his band too
though i dunno if it's been announced yet

well, what's interesting is he was ASKED to leave the band...just like Cory was asked to leave....

weird
i wonder who is gonna fill his shoes...

MB drummer?

Metal Band drummer?

METAL BLADE -- I assume.

yeah

well, excuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse me

the band is demiricous

shitty to hear but i can say that a Gutrot full length would now be in order

From Zach's Myspace:

"Yes, the rumors are true, I AM NO LONGER THE DRUMMER FOR THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER........I was asked to leave the band after our last show on the BTBAM/Cephalic Carnage/Into The Moat tour 10/28/05 in Detroit,Michigan,our home...I was quitting anyways and they knew it,they just wanted to save face and beat me to the punch.I'm gonna sound like a total asshole, but anyone that knows me knows that this is the truth and i'm very very far from being a dick head.....BDM is nothing without me,they were nothing until I joined.Had I not joined last year when I did, they never would've continued, and even if they did, half the shit they did with me in the band would've never happened,and Miasma wouldn't have turned out the way it did,they know all of this is true as well, because i've been told by them many a times.I want everyone to know that reads this that Brian from BDM is a total dickhead and doesn't care about anything accept making money,and on top of that, he is not half as good of a musician as you may think,he is one of the most un-talented musicians i've ever played with.He doesn't care about friendships,having fun(Basically really being in a band).....I also want everyone to know that I was shorted about $2500,very shitty on their part,also a decision made by Brian.They also gave Dave Lock(bass) the boot shortly after me.....Also a very shitty thing.....I know now who my real friends are and Dave was really the only one outta the band that I could really consider a friend.I've heard many a rumors that Trevor is leaving the band,I hope it's true.I wish nothing but the worst to Brian and his future endeavors.So, for anyone thinking of joining, don't do it unless you're a total fucking joke of a musician and a person that only cares about making money and nothing else, and not the most important things about being in a band(having fun,REAL friendships and being friends with the people in your band...etc).And for everyone that thinks or have said to me "man, being in bdm must be great....blah blah blah" it wasn't,I made barely any money and lived like a fucking bum for over a year.I'll be much happier in a band that goes no where making no money than a band that is very well known and not getting shit. I've had some of the best times in my life since I was in BDM, but for every great time there has been a totally shitty time that made me wanna quit my life because of Brian.I have nothing good to say about Brian, and many of you who read this probably think i'm just sore about being kicked out, but i'm really not,I just want everyone to know the truth so another kid doesn't go and make the mistake I made.Looking back at when Cory was asked to leave, I was good friends with him, and he fore-warned me about Brian and the rest of the bullshit that went on....I wish I would've listened to him.I think i'm pretty much done here,if anyone has any questions about anything, don't be shy to ask, I will hold nothing back......."

wow.. dave is out too?
suckage.

RustedAngel said:

Yeah, that's something to be proud of.
I should hope that guy Brian is only in it for the money. If he was in it for the music and came up with that gay crap, that's truly pathetic.

bug aaron...this is marked as news and has the band name spelled correctly but it's not on their page
http://www.returntothepit.com/band.php?band=the_black_dahlia_murder&show=pic

who is who pls

he'd better get workin with gutrot again! goddammit!

yeah I'd love to see some more from GUTROT!! Zach has always been one of the best people to hang out with, I hope everything works out good for him. THAT'S ALL I'LL SAY!

yea, I'd rather listen to Gutrot than the new BDM any day of the week...twice on Sunday

Any band whose entire career is comprised of regurgitating Slaughter of the Soul is destined for failure. I hope the rest of them leave soon so they can manifest that destiny.

here here

also gotta go and add in the Carcass rip off riffs too.

hey rusted, can you link me to his myspace page?

succubus said:

l-r: brian, dave, trevor, john, zach.

the drummer was the ONLY reason ive ever listened to this band..... they were horrible at ozzfest(my opinion)

wade said:

so zach is the one that looks like a....well I guess I don't really know what the hell he looks like.

good for him for getting out...bdm put up on their myspace that dave and zach were kicked out because they "couldn't play the new material"...which I find very hard to believe...so zach is probably all sorts of right...go gutrot go!

FAAACKING GUTROT!!

hahahahahahah, zach "couldn't play the new material"....what the fuck? anyone who has heard zach play drums knows he can play anything 50x more technical than bdm. fucking retards

http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseacti...ew&friendID=3382475&blogID=58419468

Is that Zach drumming on the Dysentary/Gutrot Split?

HAHA trever looks exactly like this slow kid that takes the T bus with me in the morning same hate and glasses except the slow kid carries around a polka dot lunch bag

they're a bunch of dorks anyways. im glad that they kicked him out, because now zach can focus on playing in bands that dont rip off at the gates and embarrass themselves in front of vital remains

hey dude
can i get the link to zach gibsons myspace
thanks

succubus said:

jeeesus, John Kempainen makes King Fowley look like an picture-of-health accountant.

i always found them to be nice dudes. haven't seen them in probably two years, though.

GUTROT!

zach is one of the best drummers i have seen dave is also great bass player screw the rest of the band . zach will be more at home with gutrot .

aka mcdougal

succubus said:

yeah, i'd also like to see zach's myspace.

you dudes that think zach gibson is all that on drums, obviously have never heard of pro-tools.

and if you think he was ever solid live you're living proof that people will look at speed as an indication of tightness.

this is so outdated

this band is boring as hell anyway.

quite honestly I really like the new album, but unhallowed just sucked donkey dick.

that is one ugly band

you obviously have bad taste in music, i really like BDM, on unhallowed anyway, Miasma was complete garbage

blacd dahlia is only the best band in the world with or without john and dave so go to hell

cool, i've never heard blacd dahlia...are they black metal?

Fuck BDM they sold OUT SOLD OUT I said!!!!!!!!!! Put your faith in more brutal melodic death like Burn My Remains!

speed an indication of tightness??? tightness is an indication of tightness, and he's got it...you have no idea what it's like to play intense drums like that, you fucking poseur pussy.

succubus said:

Gayest fucking cover ever. Why isn't Candlemass the supermegasize band pic on the cover, instead of those fags?

i saw zack play for 3 nights straight with mutilated, he fucking kills....lame.

bdm are a great band not saying there the best but not as bad as you haters make it out to be...but zach is a crazy fucker

Fuckin' A! Zach your fucking badass!!!! Brian has nothing on you...shit Brian has nothing on me!! Im a guitarist from Colorado that is more pissed off about bdm sucsess then you are. I mean to say that its hard to work all your life to get badass, and to see some no talented pussy like Brian on top of the world. (I could show Brian how to really play a guitar, he seriously has no idea) My drumer and I have to say that you are fucking sick. When i heard miasma I was discusted by the guitar riffs. The drumming was hands down 10 times better than all of the other members. So, check out our page on myspace sometime, peace out and smoke lots of chronic!!!!!!!!!!!!

BLACK DAHLIA MURDER SUCKS MY GRUNDLE FOR ALL ETERNITY.

The old drummer was a toolbag and when I see him I'm gonna punch him in the mouth.

I, MIKE SHEA, QUINCY MASSACHUSETTS, AM GOING TO PUNCH HIM IN THE MOUTH. There it is.

see...now there is an informative post.

I am glad that Zach is back in Gutrot jamming with me again. BDM sucks the foreskin off homeless bums on their tours. Brutality is all that matters.

whats up brian haha you fucking hack ass guitar player, have a great time embarassing yourself with your shitty playing on tour without john there to cover you up

wow, lot of views here.

sorry to rain on your parade fuckbdm, but they recruited the guitarist from arsis to cover his ass. b.d.m. is a sick band. they have a bad rap because of their image and success but i am not biased like that. hey, i even love Pantera, and i know message boards like to crucify you for admitting that, but i don't give a fuck. additionally, trivium does legitimately suck.

Oh! Thanks for clearing that up, Metalcult.

honestly zach is an amazing drummer but live he is very sloppy on any album it sounds good (most of the time) but hes still a good drummer,and that was a dumb secission on TBDM's part to kick him out.

Go home, faggot.

Did you guys hear Lars and James just kicked Mustaine out of Metallica?

Next thing you'll be telling me Noel Redding's out of The Experience!!

doesnt matter, shannon lucas is so fucking nasty on the drums that the band is just as good if not better as it was with zack. faggets

..i don't think their "problem" has ever been the drums. If only they could replace the boring ass guitar players with people that didn't pray to an ATG shrine before bed each night.

At the Gates is way different that BDM!!! Don't you people hear differences in music ?? Cheesus.
