FROM METAL INJECTION: 

Death Angel founding bassist and original vocalist Dennis Pepa has revealed he's battling stage 4 duodenal cancer.
Pepa was diagnosed in February, shortly after losing the job he'd held for nearly 20 years. He's now raising money to pursue immunotherapy at a cancer center in Mexico, along with travel, a place to stay during roughly six weeks of treatment, and support for his family back home.
"I find myself in a saloon I never wanted to be in, and so this has to be part of my fight…because there's still so much I want to stick around for," Pepa wrote. "I want to carry on watching my sons Maddox (22) and Roman (19) grow and build lives of their own… I want to marry my fiancée, Gemalyn, and continue being present for the people I love most."
His goal is $150,000, but he stresses that every bit counts: "A $5 donation multiplied many times over is so much more than $5, so anything and everything helps. Truly."
Pepa co-founded Death Angel in the Bay Area in 1982 and played on five of the band's studio albums, from The Ultra-Violence to Killing Season. Sending all our strength to Dennis and his family. 🤘


FROM DEATH ANGEL: 

Please help our brother, friend, cousin, and founding member of Death Angel, Dennis Pepa, in his fight against cancer.
He really needs the Metal community and beyond to come together and show their support in unity, as one of our own, that helped define this genre’s sound and attitude, as he fights this battle.
Any little bit helps more than you know, including your positive energy, thoughts, and prayers.
Let’s show Dennis he’s not alone fighting this battle. He has this whole amazing and tenacious Metal community by his side every step of the way!
We love you Dennis!
You got this brother!
Thanks-Stay Metal, Stay Brutal-\m/ -l-
