The Stone Gods have parted ways with their drummer, Ed Graham.

As well as being sticksman in The Darkness, Graham had been part of the band’s newest endeavours but has decided to quit the band. He had also misssed the band’s last UK tour citing illness as the reason.

The Stone Gods had used ex-Bush drummer Robin Goodridge on their previous tour but the band are quick to point out that they have yet to settle on a permenant new drummer.

The band have also had to pull their previously scheduled performance at Wacken this weekend.
