Trevor Strnad passed away<\/a> earlier this year on May 11th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each band member spoke exclusively with Decibel<\/a> about the tragic loss and walked fans through the internal debate on whether The Black Dahlia Murder should continue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New vocalist Brian Eschbach elaborated:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Darkest Hour<\/strong> and Plague Years<\/strong> will join the band at Saint Andrew’s Hall for the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We spent many days thinking things like, ‘Is this over?’ None of us wanted it to be over. We still feel like there is a lot left to do. I know Trevor would keep this band going if I went down a deep, dark path and weren’t here. It’s bigger than us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we finally started talking about it, we thought, ‘Let’s remake it from within and see if Ryan wants to return. And I’ll take a crack on the vocals and see how it goes.’ I can’t go out there and do Trevor’s voice or try to be him. I can only execute the music of the Black Dahlia Murder with respect and try to do it the most justice I can. I’ve heard Trevor perform more than anyone else alive.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
