La banda Polyphia anunció a través de su página oficial de facebook, la partida de su baterista Brandon Bukhaller, quien después de 5 años en la banda, decide dejar la agrupación por diferencias creativas. Por el momento, Anup Sastry, baterista de Monuments, reemplazará a Brandon durante la gira actual de la banda.
El comunicado fue el siguiente:
After nearly five fun years of making music together, it's with heavy but optimistic hearts that we must announce a formal and final separation with our drummer Brandon Burkhalter.
Having grown up together, we have the utmost respect for Brandon as a musician and wish him the absolute best in everything he does. This alteration of Polyphia is rooted purely in artistic differences. It's a much needed change that we as a band have chosen to make out of respect for ourselves, respect for our fans, and respect for our music.
Moving forward, we cannot wait to show you what we have in store. Our dear friend Anup Sastry of MONUMENTS will be filling in with us for the latter half of our tour with August Burns Red, which will be a distinct pleasure to say the least!
We love and appreciate you all so much. Infinite thanks for your support and understanding.
-Scott, Tim, and Clay
