Hellyeah's drummer passed away in June
The members of Hellyeah have denied false rumors that the band had recruited Daniel Davison , drummer of Every Time I Die, as a replacement for Vinnie Paul . The rumors arose after someone edited the band's Wikipedia page, stating that Davison had joined Hellyeah.
In late June, Chad Gray released a statement about Paul's death, saying that dealing with it "has been one of the hardest things I've ever had to face in my life. I'm so confused, sad, and helpless," he said.
Vinnie Paul passed away on June 22nd at the age of 54. In 1981 he founded Pantera with his brother Dimebag Darrell , and later Damageplan .
