EX-METAL CHURCH VOCALIST DAVID WAYNE DEAD
RIP DAVID WAYNE, original vocalist in METAL CHURCH –
On behalf of DAVID WAYNE'S METAL CHURCH, we would like to express our
deepest sorrow in the passing of our metal brother, David Wayne. This
is not only a loss for us as a band and his family, but also millions
of metalheads throughout the world. David died due to complications
from injuries he sustained in a head-on automobile accident several
months ago.
David Wayne was the patented scratchy vocals of several METAL CHURCH
albums and was in the process of returning to the metal scene with
his new band lineup. His goal was to return to the sounds of Metal
Church's albums released in 1984 and 1986. We will always remember
the burning words and vocals in 'Gods Of Wrath', 'Watch The Children
Pray', and 'Start The Fire'. David and his current band had just
completed several new songs and were ready to head to the recording
studio after their European tour dates this summer.
Along with David's family and friends, we would ask that cards,
letters, and flowers be sent to the below address. Additionally,
donations are being accepted to help David's family with funeral
expenses."

Wayne was last heard of working on material with guitarist Davey Lee
(ex-REVEREND) on a new project dubbed David Wayne's Metal Church.
Wayne's gritty power metal vocals were made famous on Metal Church's
first two albums: 19984's Metal Church and 1986's The Dark. Wayne
rejoined the band for the 1999 comeback record Masterpeace, but left
the band shortly after.
Jälleen yksi hieno ääni poistunut metallimaailmasta. RIP! Bartender, more beer! Make it fast or I´m outta here! |
