Who's got the scoop on Christopher? PitchFork Media thats who. The other day i got an e-mail from Ryan Schreiber of pitch fork media: Love your site. I'm a HUGE 12Rods fan. Anyway, I run Pitchforkmedia.com, a daily music reviews and music news site, and we have the lowdown on whether Christopher's leaving the band or not here:

It's true Christopher has left 12Rods, as far as i know he plan's to go on as a studio drummer, If you're Chris, best of luck to you in the future. Ryan & Ev plan to continue on as 12 Rods w/ a replacement drummer for live shows, and the next record will be realesed no later than before. These details are sketchy now so keep your eyes on The Official site

12 Rods have cancelled all of there upcomming tour dates and i can't confirm this but i'm preety sure it's because Chris may have left the band, i'm under the impression that there album will still be realesed on schedule (though there is know set date yet) and Ryan and Ev, will continue on with 12 rods after finding a replacement drummer. but remember i can't confirm any of this keep checking back for mor info.

The Next Record is in the process of being mixed by producer Todd Rundgren, it's moving along slowly but surely so be sure to look for it. Most likely to be realesed 1st quarter 2000. which by the way is not the new millenium (which starts 2001)





The Next Record is coming, the only question is when i've heard that the album is being produced by Todd Rundgren. I'm not sure of this because i also heard something about someone else produceing it, we'll just have to wait and see. Apparently 12 Rods have been doing a lot of recording latly. I'm hoping to get a bootleg of last nights show or an upcoming show so i can hear some of there new stuff. Thats all I know for know preety much.
