Even More Sad Metal News

This is not how I wanted to start my metal blog, by posting of the sudden passing of stars in the genre. Earlier this year, Peter Steele died suddenly from heart failure, my last post I mentioned Dio, now news from Iowa reports Slipknot bassist, Paul Gray was found dead in a Des Moines hotel room.

Again, I have nothing to say or add, just thinking of family and friends. I figure it's always fitting to showcase some of the chaos he helped to start. Thanks, Paul, for the fun memories.

So Long, Metal Giant

Ronnie James Dio passed away earlier today at 67. He was a vital pioneer in metal and hard rock. I can say nothing for this moment other than condolences to his family and may his music live on.
