Sadly, Chris Pennie has officially left Dillinger, or at least they make it seem that way.
Gil Sharone is taking over for at least the recording duties. You can read more about it
here. I wonder if Pennie will still play the live shows?
I think Sharone is a terrific drummer, but I don't know if he can bring to Dillinger what Pennie did. I guess we'll see what happens when their album comes out this fall. I was really looking forward to hearing Chris Pennie on the new album though.
