If not for riffs playing in my head, if not for Helloween, Iron Maiden, Crowbar, Kirk Windstein<\/strong> (and others) i don’t think i would have held up during the worst days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It may sound weird, funny, it may have to do with one’s body being washed with lots of drugs, but it may also be that<\/p>\n\n\n\n

song is important to humans. we have always known that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And when i was in that space … the deeper and slower the song, the riff, the more it would carry me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This disease will mean a further slowdown for \\REH\/<\/a> which had been on hiatus for a while anyway, as the practical aspects of playing kick in – moving heavy gear, getting to and from the studio.
I am not sure i can stand, move – not for a long time.
But hell, if Robert Wyatt<\/a> can make music, and the most beautiful music, i can.
It makes things harder. But it also makes things more important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It will be \\REH\/<\/a>ab for some time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some prominent metal musicians have been known to have contracted the disease. Some have made (great) music to reflect on it.

If the flesh eating disease is a science fiction disease, it is equally much a metal disease.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2011 Jeff Hanneman<\/a>, guitarist for the thrash metal band Slayer<\/a>, contracted the disease. He died of liver failure two years later, on May 2, 2013, and it was speculated that his infection was the cause of death. However, on May 9, 2013, the official cause of death was announced as alcohol-related cirrhosis<\/a>. Hanneman and his family had apparently been unaware of the extent of the condition until shortly before his death.[28]<\/a><\/sup><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

2014 Daniel Gildenl\u00f6w<\/a>, Swedish singer and songwriter for the band Pain of Salvation<\/a>, spent several months in a hospital after being diagnosed with necrotizing fasciitis on his back in early 2014. After recovering, he wrote the album In the Passing Light of Day<\/em><\/a>, a concept album about his experience during the hospitalization.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

“And although I wish that I could stay
It somehow strangely feels okay
It is what it is, I’ll find my way
Through this passing light”
