Lostprophets Loss, NIN's Gain
Lostprophets drummer Iian Rubin has been announced as the replacement for former Nine Inch Nails drummer Josh Freese. Rubin will officially become a permanent member of the band in January.
In a post on the official NIN website, Trent Reznor said: “With great pride and excitement I announce the addition of Ilan Rubin to the line-up beginning next year. I had the chance to see Ilan playing his ass off at Reading and Leeds a couple summers ago and he blew me away. We recently invited him out to rehearse with us and he blew us away – the perfect guy to pick up the sticks after Josh leaves us at the end of the year”.
