Death deals another blow to Death. Below is a posting from former manager of the pioneering Death metal band Death:
"With a sense of shock, I'm letting all of you know of the passing today of former Death bassist Scott Clendenin. Scott had some health challenges in the last few years but was optimistic about his prospects. Of course he was the skilled player on 'The Sound Of Perseverance' Death album, and recently participated in two DTA (Death To All) live runs, in 2012 and 2013, including the highlight of his acoustic guitar in a poignant rendition of 'Voice Of The Soul'. Our thoughts go out to Scott's family at this difficult time." Scott Clendenin stated in an interview 2011 about the experience of playing with Death and Control Denied: "It was a great honor to have played with someone so revered as Chuck (Schuldiner). I can say it made me a better player and person to be involved in these bands."
Today will be devoted to Death in Scott's memory. A very nice guy whom I had the priviledge of sharing the stage with on several differnt occasions with Control Denied. Thoughts go out to his family and may Scott rest in peace and thunder the heavens alongside Chuck, Mike, Dime, Dio, Dr. Rhodes, Cliff and all of the other greats we've lost over the last few decades. You will be missed my friend. I still hear the Voice of Your Soul.
