(Metal Hammer) Philm have confirmed that they are continuing without drummer Dave Lombardo. The former Slayer sticksman reported back in January that he'd dissolved the band saying: "To be clear, I did not 'exit' Philm - I ended Philm. Thank you to all who supported that band. Now, I'm off to the studio to do what I love - play the f***in' drums."

But frontman Gerry Nestler says that's not the case, and they've lined up a gig at the Ultimate Jam Night at Hollywood's Whisky A Go Go on September 20 - and recorded an album.

Nestler says in a statement: "What can I say - the reports of our demise have been greatly exaggerated. I think the quote from Dave in January was, 'I did not exit Philm, I ended Philm.'

"Well, Pancho Tomaselliand I decided to carry on without him - just like the original Philm carried on without Dave and released an album in 2002, albeit under a different name, Kkleq Muzzil.

"So, no, Philm is not over - we are alive and kicking. Not only did we hook up with our new drummer Anderson Quintero a few months back, we just finished tracking a new album which is in the final stages of being mixed." Read more here.
