We are saddened to report about the passing of Cynic bassist Sean Malone. He was 50 years old. No cause of death has yet been revealed. The news on Malone’s death was broken by Cynic guitarist/vocalist Paul Masvidal, who shared the following statement last night (9th) on social media:

 

“I learned today that Sean Malone has died. I am numb and grief stricken. He had a brilliant mind, a gracious heart and was one of the greatest musicians I’ve ever encountered. I know that this is a shocking loss for so many fans whose lives he touched with his artistry, as it is for me. Please keep him in your thoughts and listen to his playing to celebrate his life.”
