EVILE – Bassist Passes Away In Hospital

Only a few days into their European tour with AMON AMARTH, EVILE bassist Mike Alexander suddenly fell ill and was rushed to a hospital in Lulea, Sweden, where he tragically passed away.

Evile band mates Matt Drake, Ol Drake and Ben Carter have issued the following statement:

“This is so hard to find the words to express fully how we feel. We can’t believe or accept what’s happened. One minute we’re talking to our buddy, Mike, the next minute we can never speak to him again. There’s so many things rushing through our heads that we want to say, do and feel. We half expect him to come round the corner and call us ‘dickheads.’ We can’t get our heads around it. It upsets us so much that he was away from his family when this happened, although knowing Mike, we’re at least glad he was on tour doing what he loves. We’re lost for words. We all miss him so much already. He was such a headstrong, genuinely nice guy who loved music and his family. We’ve got so many brilliant memories with him. Our hearts go out to his daughter, family and friends at this tragic, difficult time. Mike is much loved and is sorely missed. Rest in peace, brother.”

During such a sad turn of events, The Metal Den sends our condolences to Mike Alexander’s family
and the surviving members of EVILE.
