We adore it when a superb band makes a return. Double time if it additionally contains the return of a superb member. That’s what Connecticut metalcore/hardcore band 100 Demons is doing. Not solely have they welcomed again their previous bassist, Sean Martin (ex-Hatebreed), nevertheless it’s additionally stated that they’re engaged on new music for the primary time in over 20 years.
Whereas Martin’s return comes with a tinge of disappointment—since he’s changing the late Erik Barret, who handed away final 12 months—the band appears excited to be again in acquainted territory. The band’s vocalist Pete Morcey posted this about the entire to-do yesterday (March 14):
@100demons203 wish to formally announce and welcome our brother and new bass participant Sean Martin @theresidualeffects again into the combo. We’re additionally excited to announce we’re properly into writing our first file in over 20 years. Numerous nice issues taking place in 2025. Love every one in every of these guys. We’ve been taking part in collectively our complete lives. See you all quickly.
Barret sadly handed away final 12 months for undisclosed causes. Morcey posted a heartfelt and heartbroken message about it when it occurred, which makes me really feel like no matter 100 Demons are at the moment engaged on could be devoted to him in a method or one other.
“We had some large issues within the works this 12 months my pal. I used to be so glad you had been again within the band taking part in with us once more. I want I knew what was occurring in your head. I do know I might have made a distinction.
