here's a metal death no one will be talking about:
Mariusz "Szczery" Szczerski, vocalist of HONOR and our friend departed from our world a short time ago.
He was seriously injured in a car accident. A passenger car he traveled as a passenger and a delivery track crashed. Szczery died after days of fight for life without regaining consciousness on the 3th of August 2005. Szczery died but He left us His artistic work, deep and proud lyrics, and His voice - voice of blood and soul of a White Man. I had an opportunity to work with Him on Graveland/Honor split Raiders of Revenge

I found out about Szczery's death during Viking Festival on Wolin Island . Earlier I heard some information about car accident but I thought it was another false rumor spreaded by the specialists of disinformation (I remember that last year people thought that I was dead)
unfortunately this time it was not a false rumor
It is a great lost for the underground. I hoped that Szczery would return to underground when he solved his problems with the police...I was waiting for a triumphal come back...but Szczery will not come back...
But Heroes of our cause never die...music that Szczery created will always remind us about Him...next generations will be brought up on His music...HONOR will serve as a model for them.
The days of glory will come and died heroes revive by our deeds...
Now we have to do something for Szczery...rescue His name from oblivion and hallow
to make His name a cult for next generations
I've very fond memories of my cooperation with HONOR. I must admit that Szczery's work as a vocalist inspired me to record Graveland albums in Polish. I had an opportunity to observe His work in recording studio, His work with lyrics and music and I have changed my attitude towards Graveland lyrics. In the past I used to treat my lyrics without proper attention focusing only on music. Thanks to Szczery I know that lyrics are very important part of my albums.
The result of our cooperation - split Raiders of Revenge was a great event that caused us many problems... I think you know that story...
Szczery died loyal to the ideas till the end...He died full of pride and honor. He never gave up in His fight against the system that wanted to enslave Him...He will not have to knock to the Valhalla gates...The gates were open for Him long time ago....
