RIP Brian Shields.

FROM BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME:
It's a rare opportunity in life to encounter a person who truly is, in every way, unforgettable. Brian Shields was one of those people. His jovial spirit and undying love for extreme music were incomparably unique. He was always such a huge and genuine supporter of our band and all of us as individuals, and for that we are eternally grateful. Brian, we will miss you immensely. Rest easy, friend.
