Recently, Terry Butler (bass) and Greg Gall (drums) left Six Feet Under to concentrate on other bands. According to Chris Barnes, he and Steve Swanson have been writing with a new partner for 4 months already. Now, SFU announced their new drummer, former Chimaira, Daath and Misery Index drummer Kevin Talley.
“I am 110 percent stoked to have Kevin join Six Feet Under. He is undeniably one of the best, if not THE best drummer in death metal, and I’m proud to have him along for the ride!”
– Chris Barnes
And now it’s time for some speculation. 4 months ago, around the time Barnes and Swanson started writing new SFU tunes with a new writing partner, Jim LaMarca quit playing the bass for Chimaira. Chimaira are known for being SFU fans and now that former Chimaira drummer Kevin Talley joined Six Feet Under, it wouldn’t surprise me if LaMarca (or even Rob Arnold) were to join them, too.
