The Black Dahlia Murder vocalist Trevor Strnad has passed away at 41 years old and tributes have begun pouring in at a rate faster than I'm sure anyone will be able to keep up with. Because really, what is there to do right now but mourn one of the best people in metal? Than to mourn the loss of easily one of the greatest and most iconic vocalists of the modern era? There really are no words – Trevor Strnad will be missed beyond belief, and his music will remain on the tongues of every metal fan for generations to come.

Thanks for everything, Trevor. We'll all miss you, but we're sure as hell never going to forget you.

RIP Trevor Strnad, you’ll be missed dearly, my deepest condolences to TDBM, his family, friends & fans. Thanks for all the laughs, the stories, the music, & so much more. ❤️❤️❤️— Jamey Jasta (@jameyjasta) May 11, 2022

So sad to hear about the passing of Trevor from The Black Dahlia Murder. Absolutely horrible. He was such a sweet guy. Had him on my podcast about 10 months ago, he was very open about struggling with depression. It’s a sad day for the Metal community

Rest in peace…? https://t.co/XW1mpgLDps— EarsplitPR (@EarsplitPR) May 11, 2022

Totally shocking news. Truly great guy/artist. Testament was supposed to tour with the band (derailed by Covid) and it was a blast to work with him in @metalallegiance. Huge loss.

This is absolutely devastating.

Our deepest thoughts are with Brian, Alan, Brandon and Max.

Our love to Trevor's friends and family. It's difficult to overstate what Trevor meant to metal and how much his presence will be missed. Please hug your loved ones a little tighter.

Condolences to all who knew him. I did not know him, but he was a tireless supporter of underground death metal bands, ours included – which when you're in a big band like that is truly admirable and not often the case. RIP. https://t.co/K7f5lD6zpS— 20 BUCK SPIN (@20buckspinlabel) May 11, 2022

We love you so much, Trevor.

Thank you for your passion, your generosity, your humor, your immense talent and your indomitable spirit. pic.twitter.com/iwPq3qkJxf— UNDEATH (@undeathNY) May 11, 2022

Rest In Power Brother ?

No big name in metal supported the underground like Trevor did— josan fuck you ☻︎ (@onedyingwish) May 11, 2022

Such awful news in our community…the passing of Trevor Strnad frontman for @bdmmetal and lover of all things Metal. He was so into the music, lived & breathed it more than most, & when we hung out @SXMLiquidMetal I remember just laughing hard. His music lives on 4ever.
