CHIMAIRA: Drummer ANDOLS HERRICK Checks In

February 18, 2006

Original CHIMAIRA drummer Andols Herrick, who recently returned to the group after leaving the band in late 2003, has issued the following update:

"I thought I'd give you all an update on everything I've been doing during my first five weeks back in CHIMAIRA. I'm at the practice space six days a week, either doing partial band practices, working on my own endless drumming exercises, or both. I'm at a point where I'm really feeling comfortable playing the new songs. It's cool because it's like jamming covers you love, since I was always so into the self-titled record! I feel like a lucky fan when playing those songs. There's going to be a nice mix of older and newer songs when we hit the road, so I'm really looking forward to it! Other than playing drums, I'm still indulging in my other passion, pounding the iron at the gym (and of course eating like a fat pig)! My number one goal before heading out again is to squat 225 pounds for 10 reps, and I'm pretty damn close! I may not be anywhere near as talented as a lot of metal drummers, but I bet I could out-lift most of them!"
