Following yesterday’s official announcement of his return to Thy Art Is Murder, frontman CJ McMahon has released a more personal statement via his Instagram below, it reads:
“You made me a rockstar, you made me a God, you made me immortal, I owe my fans everything. I made myself a drug addict, I made myself a liar, I made myself lose and destroy friendships, I made my family and friends hurt. I come back to the world a new man whom with my closest friends ( Thy Art Is Murder ) will prove that we are the greatest, strongest, and most powerful force in Metal, I will take no prisoners, we will crush all charts and expectations. We will take over the game and raise the bar so no one will touch it or us. I am Cj McMahon and I will stand as a King with my brothers for the rest of time”
Back when he made his previous exit from the band in December 2015, McMahon had originally blamed his departure on financial woes and wanting to spend more time with his family.
