Chimaira Guitarists to Part Ways at Year’s End

by Ryan Minic | Nov 10, 2011

Chimaira guitarists Rob Arnold and Matt DeVries will part ways with the band at the end of 2011.

Frontman Mark Hunter commented, “I would personally like to thank Rob and Matt for all of their hard work, years of service to Chimaira, amazing songs, and for their friendship. Together we built something special that will remain for generations to come. I’m looking forward to spending another 5 weeks on the road with two of the best (and criminally underrated) guitarists in modern metal.”
