For once, the cry of “fake news” won’t cause any wild division.

An update was made to HELLYEAH’s Wikipedia page recently naming Daniel Davison, whose last gig was as drummer for Every Time I Die, as the band’s new drummer replacing the late Vinnie Paul Abbott.  HELLYEAH was quick to dispel this update with the following tweet.

The future for HELLYEAH is still uncertain in the wake of Vinnie Paul’s sudden passing.  The band was working on their sixth studio album, but nothing has been confirmed by the band about whether or not that album will be released in the near future.
