Suicide Silence part ways with drummer Alex Lopez

Lopez' final single with the band will be released next week.

After roughly 15 years in California deathcore band Suicide Silence, drummer Alex Lopez has exited the group.

The following statement has been issued:

"Suicide Silence and our longtime drummer, Alex Lopez, have mutually agreed to part ways. We wish him nothing but the best moving forward and encourage you all to follow his future endeavors in both music and visual arts. Our good friend, Ernie Iniguez (who recorded drums on 'Become The Hunter') will be drumming with us on the upcoming 'Chaos & Carnage' tour and European festival run. That all said, we'll be premiering a new single next week (Alex's final studio performance with the band) called 'Thinking In Tongues' that we're very excited for you all to hear. It will be premiering on SiriusXM Liquid Metal on May 3rd with a full digital release and music video on May 4th."

Lopez put forth his own statement, which reads as follows:

"So I'll make this as short as possible. Suicide Silence and myself have parted ways. I'll always love them and their families and everything we accomplished together during my time. I wish SS the best. With that said, I'm excited to continue making music and art, and plan to be involved with any projects I find fulfilling. I'd be truly grateful if you continued to follow and support what I do next, It's not over for me by a long shot. Love and thank you to all my fans, friends and supporters, the next chapter begins."

"No neckbeard ass "sheet rocks waitin" comments? LG retards are being lazy today I see. Also this guy probably made more money than anyone about to reply to this. Looool" Life isn't all about how much you make. Life is about never being in Suicide Silence.

You like to see homos naked?

15 years is an embarrassing amount of time to spend in a deathcore band. Get a hair cut and some clothes from j. Crew.

anonymous 4/29/2022 4:32:56 PM

Wants to spend more time boning the chick from Jinjer. High five!

Why can't they be more quiet about the suicide

anonymous 4/29/2022 10:14:06 PM

Too bad the band didn't all quit. It's not the worst deathcore band, but it sure is the most mediocre one. Then again this "genre" died because of bands that came after Despised Icon

The new Batman movie sucked ass.

The new Batman movie sucked ass. The fact that Commissioner Gordon is black and all the press was about that catwoman actress, anyone with an IQ higher than an oreo knew it was going to be a Buzzfeed level sh*t fest

anonymous 4/30/2022 11:08:22 AM

Wants to spend more time boning the chick from Jinjer. High five! He'll worm his way into that band, then they'll break up.

The new Batman movie sucked ass. ^^^^^ I can't be bothered to watch it. Woke superheroes can suck my dick. The most offensive part is the illiterates in Hollywood who can't just follow the comic books.

anonymous 4/30/2022 2:14:33 PM

genres dead but deathcore bands are the only acts consistently getting added to major normie fears outside of the usual metallicas and such, crazy how out of touch the coping gets

carveyournamein 4/30/2022 2:27:42 PM

I'm sure Connor Betts is stoked.

the only good song this band ever did was so sac-religious that god decided to smite the vocalist. every album since then has gotten progressively worse.

floorpuncher 5/1/2022 12:08:09 PM

this isn't news. the whole band should have quit when mitch died
