NAZXUL Guitarist Killed In Motorcycle Accident

November 19, 2008

Long-running Australian thrashers MORTAL SIN have issued the following update:

"Our longtime friend Greg Morelli, guitarist of NAZXUL, was tragically killed in the early hours of Thursday morning, November 20th in a motorcycle accident. As many locals would know, a huge storm hit Sydney last night and Greg was riding his motorbike home and hit a greasy wet patch on Parramatta road North Strathfield.

"Greg's death will be a huge loss to the Australian metal scene and of course the international black metal scene. The new NAZXUL album had just been completed and Greg was really looking forward to getting back out on the road and we had also talked about the possibility of heading over to Europe for some shows next year. Greg explained to me that the new album was sounding like they finally wanted to sound like, and was really proud of what he had achieved.

"I hope all the black metal fans out there will raise their horns tonight for Greg.

"Rest in peace, mate, you're a fucking legend."
