I’m still processing yesterday and I’ll have more to say in the coming days. But for now, thank you so much to @theghostinside for letting us share this day with you all. 📷: @billcardella
Locked tf in. New Demonize singles are some of the most proud I’ve been of new music in a while. Can’t wait to share what we cooked. 📷: @damonweinhold
2 things about me: I love King Diamond and I love cats. Introducing my new child - ABIGAIL. She’s still a little shy to her new environment, but the sweetest little lover girl and it’s been so exciting to learn her personality these last few days. My new best friend ❤️📷: @low.as.heck
While 2024 was hands down the worst year of my life, 2025 was hands down the best year of my life (aside from Hatebreed’s death). Happy to have built a community of some of the best people in the world.
Summer is over. Another band, lost 50lbs, started a podcast, got tattooed a bunch, drank a lot of McDonald’s Diet Coke, and still missing Hatebreed every day since his passing. But we out here doin our best baby 🫡
This morning I said goodbye to my best friend in the entire world. We had 359 days together since I brought him and his brother, Slayer (RIP) home. Those 359 days were the best days I have ever lived. 3 weeks ago Hatebreed went to the vet with fluid in his lungs and around his heart as well as a cancerous mass in his chest. They gave him 2 days to live. He made it 23. I will be grateful for that extra 23 days together for the rest of my life.
As Hatebreed slipped away in my arms, I sobbed and couldn’t stop saying “thank you” to him. For every smile. For every cuddle. For every chirp. For every game of fetch. For every piece of fur I had to roll off of my closet of black shirts. I’m so grateful to have been his caretaker and dad. I could never thank this cat enough for the love I got to experience and for him being the sweet boy he is. I truly believe the love we had was mutual.
For those who don’t know, Hatebreed and Slayer were dumped in a parking lot in NJ. I fell in love with them both while visiting @rschieni19 and drove from NC to NJ and back to bring them home with me. These 2 got a terrible hand dealt in life, but I hope the time I was able to give them brought them peace and love before they both passed. While some may say that I saved them, I think in more ways, they saved me during the hardest time in my life. Hug your animals and tell them thank you. The time we have with them is far too short.
