The band is currently seeking a replacement for Pierre:

So here we are again on the hunt for a drummer… fun fun fun!!! We need someone dedicated; who knows for sure that the touring life is for them, and we need them as soon as possible. Relocation is a must, but not necessary immediately. We have an album to finish writing and many tours to go on. Fear not my children, the BDM will ride again.
