Wow that is awesome. I'm not a fan of DT but even I'm aware of Portnoy's greatness! I wonder how he'll influence the sound of the new album. It was very thoughtful of the band to recruit Portnoy and I'm glad he accepted the offer!
i lol'd at the title to be honest, portnoy isn't just any "new drummer". I just hope that A7X don't have to be witness to Portnoy's horrible scream/growl things.
I think it should be clarified that at least for now, they just plan on using Portnoy to finish recording the new album that they had started working on before Rev died. They haven't said anything about continuing beyond that, and I'm not sure if they will.
