Chimaira frontman Mark Hunter looks to have gone on the defensive following some criticism over the bands continued lineup shifts. Speaking through Twitter earlier today he stated:
“What’s truly amazing about these line-up changes is the explosion of creativity”
“Tons of bands change line-ups from album to album while maintaining their core sound. death, nin, zao, megadeth, etc…”
Meanwhile, Six Feet Under vocalist Chris Barnes took the opportunity to toss some friendly ribbing Hunter‘s way, tweeting:
“@chimairamark: a 9 piece super group comprised of 3 ex chim, sfu, and daath in the works.”/// sixdaathmaira”
“@chimairamark / for a second there I was going to ask you if you wanted to take over vocal duties in sfu..must’ve been the euphoria OG…”
“@chimairamark .. now if you pick up terry butler on bass the circle of metal is complete.”
In case you missed it, exiting Chimaira guitarists Rob Arnold and Matt DeVries joined up with Six Feet Under earlier this year.
