Hail to all ye Brethren of the Hammer,
There is one thing that remains constant in the universe and that is that change is inevitable. Well this law of life is no different for Manilla Road either for change is in the wind again for the band. It saddens me to inform you all that Cory Christner and the other members of Manilla Road have come to an impasse on a few topics which has led to a changing of the guard in the percussion department of the band. We had a good eight years with Hardcore playing incredible drums for the Road and we will miss his expertise. But the time has come to make a change and so we in Camp Manilla have endeavored to make what we think is the best choice for the drummer slot in Manilla Road.
I am proud to announce that as of now the new drummer for Manilla Road is the one and only Andreas Neuderth (Neudi) who has become renowned for his drummer skills with bands like Viron, Roxxcalibur, Savage Grace and Griffin. He is also the host and producer of the metal show STRIKE! on Streetclip TV in Germany. I have known Neudi for many years and we became good friends a long time ago. Recently we spent a lot of time with Neudi in Germany and he played with us at the Hammer of Doom Festival this last October. If you saw the show then you can immediately understand why Neudi was the obvious and best choice of drummers for Manilla Road. He totally kicked ass at the HOD and earned his wings with the Road. Change is always awkward and sometimes difficult for the band and for our supporters as well but in this case I think that, with your support, the addition of Neudi to Manilla Road will have a very positive and glorious result. So please welcome Neudi into the realm of Manilla Road with the arms opened wide. There is much to come in the future from MR. We are working on new music for a new Manilla album and there will be touring (for sure) in 2012. We are in the process of confirming dates in Finland and Sweden right now and we will also be making a trip back to the south of Europe to do shows in Greece and Italy among others. So keep an eye out on the tour dates section of manillaroad.net for all the relevant news about our upcoming tour dates. It is an honor to have such a great individual and musician as Neudi joining our ranks.
