Black Dahlia Murder lose two members

The Black Dahlia Murder drummer Zach Gibson is in fact no longer with the band. Although the band has not publicly addressed the matter, Gibson has issued the following statement (which indicates that bassist David Lock has parted ways with the group as well):

"Yes, the rumors are true, I am no longer the drummer for The Black Dahlia Murder. I was asked to leave the band after our last show on the BTBAM/Cephalic Carnage/Into The Moat tour 10/28/05 in Detroit, Michigan, our home...I was quitting anyways and they knew it, they just wanted to save face and beat me to the punch."

Meanwhile, Gibson has apparently rejoined his former group, Gutrot.
