Here&#8217;s more word on that:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Fans already know Emil from the Coming Alive DVD, the insane guitar solo at the end of \u201cSamsara\u201d, and most recently on stage playing bass for The Age Of Hell tour.<\/p>\n<p>For those that don\u2019t know, time to get familiarized. Listed as one of modern metal\u2019s most important guitar players, Mr. Emil Werstler.&#8221;<br \/>\n<br \/>\nIn related news, it would appear that soon to be former Chimaira guitarist Rob Arnold will be starting a new project with former Chimaira drummer Andols Herrick. Two recent tweets from Herrick read as follows:<\/p>\n<p>    \u201cWould it be safe to assume that if soon, me and my friend Rob Arnold were to write some music together, my friends would be interested?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>    \u201cI knew a potential Rob Arnold\/Andols Herrick project would get people excited. First things first, I need my new drum set! Will keep u posted!\u201d<br \/>\n <br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.chimaira.com\/\">http:\/\/www.chimaira.com\/<\/a><br \/>\n<\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>American groove metallers CHIMAIRA are pleased to announce that Emil Werstler (DAATH) will be handling&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_mo_disable_npp":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-25227","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25227","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=25227"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25227\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=25227"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=25227"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=25227"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
