Repentance have paid tribute to their late guitarist Shaun Glass with their latest music. The latter prolific musician was also known for his work in Broken Hope and SOiL. His passing was announced in July of this year, with a crowdfunding campaign launched for his son.
His Repentance bandmates have now newly issued a music video for the track “Fade Into Silence“, which they’ve chosen to dedicate to him. Prior to his death, Glass and the band had intended to release their third studio album “Retaliate” this summer. However, the decision was made to delay that record to a November 27th release in light of his passing.
Vocalist Adam Gilly commented:
“We decided that ‘Fade Into Silence‘ would be the next single from the record because we wanted to dedicate this release to Shaun Glass. Of all the songs on the record, ‘Fade Into Silence‘ just felt like the perfect song to honor him – especially because it was a song that Shaun himself wrote.
His unexpected passing has left a major hole in our hearts and in this band. Shaun wasn’t just a bandmate or a friend; he was our brother. He was the one who created this band and helped give it its identity, and he was deeply loved by everyone of us. It’s difficult to put into words what his loss means to us, and things will never quite be the same without him.
This song now carries a meaning we never expected it to have. Every note is a reminder of Shaun, his creativity, his passion, and everything he gave to this band. We’re proud to dedicate ‘Fade Into Silence‘ to our brother and friend, Shaun Glass. His music, his influence, and his memory will always be a part of us. Rest easy, Shaun. This one is for you.”
