Converge/Mutoid Man drummer Ben Koller will be stepping in for Killer Be Killed‘s (Mastodon, Soulfly, etc.) coming debut live shows in Australia. Frontman Greg Puciato (also of The Dillinger Escape Plan) confirmed the news to themetalreview.com with the below comments. Dave Elitch will be unable to perform due to his commitments to Antemasque.
“Look I haven’t actually told anyone this yet but Dave is actually not going to play. Ben Koller from Converge is going to play. You’re actually the first person to hear that.”

We didn’t know what day we we’re going to be on (Soundwave runs two days), and then it just became an issue whether we wanted to still do it or not, which we obviously did. Then it was, if Antemasque have a good slot, if we have a good slot, I didn’t want to shuffle the band around to a shittier time slot just to accommodate Dave playing in both bands. Antemasque for Dave is a much bigger commitment, they’re playing a lot of shows all the time. If he needs to do that, that’s fine with me. Ben from Converge is a fucking animal so it’ll be cool to play with him.”
