Eric Greif, former manager of DEATH announced last night, Tuesday 24th March, via the band’s official Facebook page that former bass player Scott Clendenin has passed away.
“With a sense of shock I’m letting all of you know of the passing today of former DEATH bassist Scott Clendenin. Scott had some health challenges in the last few years but was optimistic about his prospects. Of course he was the skilled player on The Sound of Perseverance DEATH album, and recently participated in two DTA live runs, in 2012 and 2013, including the highlight of his acoustic guitar in a poignant rendition of Voice of the Soul. Our thoughts go out to Scott’s family at this difficult time. ERIC”
Scott played with DEATH from 1996 until their breakup in 2001. In 1997, he joined Chuck Schuldiner‘s second band CONTROL DENIED and was replaced by Steve DiGiorgio.
