I never liked this band but that is fucked up.
Im quite shocked, they did a few decent songs
Terrible. No Time To Bleed is an amazing death metal album. I remember a college buddy of mine talking them up a few years back to me, how he was trying to sign them to Victory. Sooo heavy. This is awful for the band as a whole too, since well, his vocals were essential to their awesome heavy sound.
Suicide Silence were one of the first 'heavy' bands I got into. Pretty shocked by this :(
Suicide Silence is one of my favorite bands. I'm crying right now... Damn... RIP.
hated this band but this is sad news
Sad news, R.I.P Mitch.
I only remember hearing a few songs by these guys, but that really does suck... R.I.P.
I was a casual fan of SS but any death is tragic and Mitch was really quite talented. RIP. my heart goes out particularly to his daughter.
R.I.P. - one of the nicest and humblest person I've met! So sad for his young daughter :'(
rip
Nice to see some love for him on here - I worked with him and SS for more than 3 years - I had to call out of work that day. All I did was sleep and cry.
He lives on, though.
They're doing a benefit show with guest vocalists to help put his daughter through school.
