He Leaves Alone
Reported by erun
Godsmack drummer Tommy Stewart has left the band. Stewart was one of the founding members of the Boston-based group, (along with singer Sully Erna, guitarist Tony Rambola and bassist Robbie Merrill) which formed more than five years ago. According to the band, the decision regarding Stewart's departure was amicable and mutual, and he will be taking on other musical pursuits. Though Godsmack has not announced a replacement for Stewart, the group is moving forward with work on its third album. The band began writing and recording last month, and plans to release the album in early 2003.
