All That Remains confirmed the sad news to fans that guitarist Oli Herbert has died. He was 44.
The band released the following statement:
“We were devastated to learn that Oli Herbert, our friend, guitar player, and founding member of All That Remains, has passed away.
Oli was an incredibly talented guitarist and songwriter who defined Rock and Metal from the Northeast. His impact on the genres and our lives will continue indefinitely.
No further details are available at this time. The band and family request that you please respect their privacy and remember Oli by celebrating the great music he made.”
All That Remains’ ninth studio album, Victim of the New Disease, is due out on November 9. A European tour was slated to begin on December 1. So far, the band has yet to confirm whether they will be proceeding with those tour dates.
Our deepest condolences to Herbert’s family and the entire All That Remains band and crew.
