La rumeur tient depuis quelques temps, comme quoi Suicide Silence se serait décidé à remplacer son regretté Mitch Lucker décédé l’année dernière.
Depuis le show en mémoire du défunt, on a entendu parler d’Austin Carlile (Of Mice & Men) mais rapidement démenti par l’intéressé, mais plus récemment c’est le nom d’Eddie du groupe All Shall Perish qui tourne. Et le groupe vient de confirmer. Une vidéo publiée par le groupe établi ce nouveau chanteur via une reprise du titre You Only Live Once.
A découvrir dans la suite.

Mise à jour:
Un communiqué du groupe a été publié aujourd’hui (09/10) confirmant ce changement.
« Suicide Silence is pleased to announce the addition of Eddie Hermida to the family. Many of you may be familiar with Eddie through his work with All Shall Perish. For those of you unfamiliar, our relationship with Eddie goes way back to the Spreading Disease Tour, our first U.S. headlining run, in 2006. Mitch & Eddie remained long-time friends and we felt that if the band were to continue it should be with someone Mitch knew personally and respected as both a friend and an artist. We’ve chosen Eddie as our new frontman in association with this long-standing relationship & countless other attributes from his quality of character to his dynamic vocal abilities that make him the absolute best fit for this band.
We hope you all will embrace this decision with open arms understanding that this is what Mitch would have wanted. He would want his brothers to stick together & carry forward what he helped create. Every time we step on stage it will be in his honor & for his legacy. Suicide Silence will continue. »
