Most recently guitarist Christian Martucci was still being listed as a touring member of Stone Sour. Though not a secret by any means, his role replacing Jim Root (of Slipknot) in the band has since been made official, with the group themselves confirming the news to a fan earlier today:
This should be no shocker giving his listing as a member of the outfit on their Facebook, etc., though it would appear a proper announcement of his graduation to full-time member was never made. The band will have a new covers EP titled “Meanwhile In Burbank…” available on ‘Record Store Day‘, April 18th.
