In the wake of the departure of guitarist Emil Werstler, the remaining members of CHIMAIRA, sans frontman Mark Hunter, have all exited the band as well. Guitarist Matt Szlachta, keyboardist/vocalist Sean Zatorsky, bassist Jeremy Creamer, and drummer Austin D'Amond collectively issued the following statement via ThePRP last night.

"In light of recent news, the rest of the band have decided to part ways with Chimaira. For us this was a great stepping stone, and an honor to play these songs live, and fulfill an incredible legacy. This was an an excellent platform to help continue playing music, when our collective bands either ended or went on a hiatus. Chimaira was an amazing experience and we look forward to future music endeavors with eachother."
