Corrosion Of Conformity drummer Reed Mullin will be sitting out the bands immediate live shows as a result of a torn rotator cuff in his shoulder. The band have recruited ex-Kylesa drummer Eric Hernandez to take over for the time being, offering:
“We are sorry to announce that Reed Mullin will not be onboard for this tour. He’s been playing through pain, awaiting a strategic time to repair a full tear of his rotator cuff. That’s a seriously bum shoulder. So he’s going to get that repaired and rehabbed.
During the interim, we’ve enlisted Mr. Eric Hernandez formerly of Kylesa to help us until then. Eric came to our attention when we approached Rick Smith of Torche about filling in and he recommended Eric, who he grew up with in Miami. Eric has also filled in for Ricky in Torche a few times with great results. He is, like Reed, a hard hitter, and thankfully possesses the capacity to learn and digest detailed material quickly and accurately.”
