We like it when an excellent band makes a return. Double time if it additionally contains the return of an excellent member. That’s what Connecticut metalcore/hardcore band 100 Demons is doing. Not solely have they welcomed again their outdated bassist, Sean Martin (ex-Hatebreed), nevertheless it’s additionally mentioned that they’re engaged on new music for the primary time in over 20 years.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 combination. We’re additionally excited to announce we’re effectively into writing our first report in over 20 years. Numerous nice issues taking place in 2025. Love each one among 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 presently engaged on is likely to be devoted to him in a technique or one other.
“We had some massive issues within the works this 12 months my pal. I used to be so completely satisfied you had been again within the band taking part in with us once more. I want I knew what was happening in your head. I do know I might have made a distinction. You left behind so many individuals who beloved you…..your loved ones, your folks, your girlfriend and bandmates are in shock. I haven’t slept all night time bc my thoughts was flooded with each reminiscence of our historical past collectively. We’d have completed something and every thing for you.”
