Despised icon is breaking up

[RG7]

they just put the info up on their myspace twitter thing.

man this sucks, they were such a good band and I was really proud to be canadian because of them and their music.
I even went to see them live =/

 

[SerratedSkies]

Now their drummer can find a good band!

 

[groph]

I am now eager to see what their drummer gets into next. I've always loved the drumming. Can't say I'm a fan of theirs but that drummer is a tank.

 

[S-O]

Meh, the Ills of modern man was about the only thing I dug, that and the split they did with ion Dissonance.

Drummer is a machine though.

 

[simonXsludge]

the one deathcore band i really respected. this comes pretty damn unexpected, that's for sure. liked the first two albums a lot, especially the healing process. they started this as something new...

R.I.P.

I really liked the guitar tone they had on Ills of Modern Man, even though it was just the typical 5150/Vader cab set-up. For the most part that's the only album they put out that I really liked.

 

[Fzau]

Alex Pelletier should join my band, I'm looking for a decent drummer






































The guy is a fucking beast
Really sucks though.. I enjoyed the Ills Of Modern Man and the live gigs..

I personally haven't liked them sense the second album. Deathcore was new back then, and it was obscure. No gimmicks.....AN NO WIGGERS.

You'd be surprised to learn that it was actually a JSX through a mesa, IIRC, per the sneap forums info,

also, didn't they play VHT Pittbull UL's?

 

[Stealthdjentstic]

YES!

 

[xiphoscesar]

NOOOO

dam i never got the chance to see them live

You still have a chance. They have like one years worth of touring still lined up.

 

[Eptaceros]

Not too upsetting, first two albums are really where it's been at for me.

 

[Despised_0515]

Yeah, I was kinda hoping they would've put out some quality material before calling it quits.
Day of Mourning is so weak compared to Ills and Healing Process.

Either way, I'll go see 'em again for the last time.
They had a good run.

I'm also excited to see what Alex Grind gets himself into in the near future.
He didn't get this fast for nothing.

 

[Adam Of Angels]

Sweet

 

[Nats]

is the #12 drummer their drummer or am i thinking of another Canadian core band?

THAT was a JSX? Jesus Christ, the tone ruled on that album, and JSX's to me have always sounded too round. Guess it depends who's playing it.

 

[Alone Dragon]

Unbelievable =(

 

[vhmetalx]

i saw their twitter post yesterday and almost cried. i told some of my friend and they actually did dry (from what i heard)
I WILL SEE THEM BEFORE THEY DIE FOR GOOD.

 

[DrakkarTyrannis]

That's all I have to say about that
