Very saddening to read this. He was an immensely talented drummer and general musician. Om remains probably my favorite full-length ever.

MDB moved on from Peaceville after 25 years and signed with Nuclear Blast a few months back.

A release by the end of the year would probably be too much to ask but this news from July 1st was most welcome:

https://www.facebook.com/MyDyingBrideOfficial/

Shaun Taylor Steels is the band's full time drummer again. I always thought he was more talented than Dan Mullins, and his standout performances on recordings like The Barghest O Whitby and The Dreadful Hours were the band's secret weapon. As good as Feel the Misery was his presence was sorely missed, and so I am optimistic their coming release could be even better.

I guess Karl took the words All Men Play on 10 a little too literal.

Apparently the shady owner of Witching Hour productions and orthodox chanting vocalist of the band Batushka tried to steal the band from the writer of all the songs and player of all the instruments save drums.

"My name is Krzysztof “Derph” Drabikowski. Most of You know me by the moniker Христофоръ, the leader and creator of the musical project Batushka. I am recording this video because I have lost control over Batushka’s website, Facebook page, webstore and as of Tuesday, even the Instagram account. This is the only way I can tell You what is happening and how my former vocalist is trying to take the band away from me. I created Batushka in the spring of 2015. I am the author of the music, lyrics, the name, the painting that you know from the album cover and the overall monk image idea. I have made the musical arrangements, wrote the melodies and recorded most of the instruments on the Litourgiya album in my private home studio. Before the finishing touches I invited Bartłomiej Krysiuk to do the vocals according to my guidelines, and Marcin Bielemiuk to re-record my drums parts on acoustic percussion. Batushka was meant to be an anonymous musical project, and from the beginning the idea was to keep the line-up unknown to the public so that the listeners could focus their attention on the musical experience itself. The album, released by Krysiuk’s underground label, became a hit. The demand for live shows from all over the world was enormous. So, I decided to, with the help of my friends, bring Batushka's music on to the live stage. During the past two years I have written and recorded the material for the second Batushka album, and Krysiuk pressed me to release it as soon as possible. As I wasn't satisfied with the results yet, I postponed the release of the follower of Litourgiya which followed with Krysiuk declaring he is leaving the band. On the Friday of the 21st of December I learned that Krysiuk hired musicians to produce an album that he planned to release as the new Batushka record, behind my back! He also registered Batushka as his personal trademark. Before I managed to do anything, he cut off my access to all Batushka's media platforms, and tries to enforce some kind of censorship on all media interested in the band situation. In response I have taken legal action and have been advised by my lawyer to not say anything further. All the new pictures you see on the website and Facebook page are of Krysiuk and random people like his son pretending to be Batushka. Every upcoming festival claiming to have Batushka in their line-up has made a deal with Krysiuk and not me. I would like to kindly ask You to copy and share this message wherever You can. Let the truth be heard. As of now the only true Batushka will be that without Krysiuk behind the mic. Thank You for watching and thank You for Your support."

I hope this guy can win his suit against that scumbag and continue make excellent black metal. Yeah the chants were cool on the first album but the guitarwork was irreplaceable.

Fuck cancer indeed. Was there a rock drummer more universally regarded by other rock drummers? I think not. RIP
