GORGUTS Drummer Commits Suicide - Oct. 21, 2002

Steve MacDonald, drummer for the long-running Canadian death metal act GORGUTS, reportedly hung himself a couple of days ago after battling depression for the last few years. An official statement from the rest of the group is expected by the end of the week.

Man, that sucks. It's a real tragedy.

If you wanna hear some of his work get these Gorguts albums:
From Wisdom To Hate(definetly played on this)
Obscura(I think he played on this, but not sure.)

He's a great talent and I'm sure the Gorguts guys and everyone else will miss him.

Although it was cut and pasted from Blabbermouth, Metal Maniacs had enough faith in it to post it on their site.
