While it’s not 100% confirmed yet, it appears that Emmure drummer Mark Castillo has left the band. Lambgoat reports a source close to the band stating that he’s departed the band under amicable circumstances. Given that Emmure is on tour overseas and Castillo posted pictures of himself fishing on his Instagram account yesterday, that would appear to be the case. While he’s not officially being named as the replacement drummer, All Shall Perish drummer Adam Pierce has been filling in and confirmed that he’ll be playing with them on the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival this summer. Castillo has played with a variety of bands other than Emmure, having sat on the throne with The Acacia Strain, Crossfade, Bury Your Dead, and Between the Buried and Me.
