Ilan Rubin (Lostprophets, The New Regime) has been named the new drummer of Nine Inch Nails, effective at the beginning of 2009.

On the bands official website, Trent Reznor had the following to say "With great pride and excitement I announce the addition of Ilan Rubin to the lineup beginning next year. I had the chance to see Ilan playing his ass off at Reading and Leeds a couple summers ago and he blew me away. We recently invited him out to rehearse with us and he blew US away - the perfect guy to pick up the sticks after Josh leaves us at the end of the year."

I just hope that LostProphets aren't too adversely affected by this anouncement.

"I'll take a bit of this band, and maybe a bit of this one..."

Nice choice. It'll give NIN an energy boost, that's for sure.

Because they very recently created some of the best albums to grace the mainstream of music in years.

Nine Inch Nails are in another league compared to the Lostprophets. If Rubin didn't want to quit the Prophets and join NIN he didn't have to, but he chose the BETTER BAND. A chance to be in NIN is legendary...one of the best bands of the 90s and 00s? Duh.

Josh's talents practically went to waste in NIN though sometimes...like sometimes he would shine and others, I could feel he was holding back...probably cause Trent told him to. Nonetheless, he was a powerful contributer to the band and one of my favorite parts about them in recent years.
We'll see what this guy can contribute. I'm slightly skeptical here, but open minded.

^^ Wouldn't say that, he wrote all the beats for The Slip and most of Ghosts, and his work on The Slip was one of the best parts of the record. Freese improvised plenty mid-song when I saw NIN live about a month ago too.

well he's not hard to replace, but to all the NIN haters, fuck off. I saw them live a few days ago and can say with confidence it was the best show I've ever seen. The band is great, it's a pity some of Sputnik are negative about them.
