Nine Inch Nails have found a new drummer to replace Josh Freese who had announced his wish to leave the band just a few months ago. Ilan Rubin from Lastprophets is going to be this new guy, said Blabbermouth.
Freese has told about his idea to leave NIN in October, and specifically underlined the fact that he is about to stay until December, when their North American tour is over. All kinds of rumours are saying that a twenty-year-old Rubin is about to join Nails in the beginning of 2009. Nine Inch Nails’ frontman and unchageable leader Trent Reznor has written on the band’s official web site that Rubin is going to be their new drummer, and later this info was picked up by the others. Reznor has pointed out his admiration of Lostprophets and specifically Rubin’s talent, “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.”
Ilan Rubin began to play drums when he was only eight years old when he found his father’s drum set in the garage. Besides drums he’s playing guitar and a keyboard.
