NAPALM DEATH Frontman: 'I'm Sad And Disappointed JESSE Wasn't Able To Fully Lift Himself Again'

August 29, 2006

NAPALM DEATH frontman Mark "Barney" Greenway has issued the following statement regarding the passing of TERRORIZER/ex-NAPALM DEATH guitarist Jesse Pintado:

"I am sitting here still really trying to take in what has happened with Jesse. We were in Bulgaria playing at the time when it seems to have happened, and communications were a little off our radar.

"I don't really want to dissect things too much because I'm conscious of how Jesse's family must be feeling right now — simply to say that I'm sad and also disappointed that Jesse wasn't able to fully lift himself again and re-discover his hunger with TERRORIZER. RIP amigo."

Pintado died over the weekend in a hospital in Holland, TERRORIZER's record label, Century Media Records, has confirmed. More information will be made available soon.
