TANTRUM: Who shall claim the vacant throne?

Who shall claim the vacant throne?


Prog metallers TANTRUM parted ways with drummer Taraka Senewiratne earlier this year. Taraka's departure from the band was announced shortly after he'd taken up duties as skinsman of Prog giants Stigmata, replacing Chathuranga Pitigala who left the band due to personal reasons. 
 


After a lengthy period of auditions TANTRUM announced last week that they've found their new skinsman, who's name shall be revealed soon.

Does anybody have any clues as to who it could be?

Here's our guess: Shehan Rodrigo 
(Ex- R.A.G.E, NEVI'IM)
