R.I.P. Kevin Mahoney of Seige


It was announced today that original vocalist of the Hardcore band SIEGE, has passed away. It's still not clear how he left us. Siege was a Hardcore Punk band that are also considered the first Grindcore/Powerviolence. His vocals paved way for all those grind bands. They influenced many bands like Napalm Death, Dropdead (took their name from their release), and MANY other bands,and to this day still do. Kevin and Siege did everything first. For more info see my old post. Siege's 2nd singer,Seth Putnam (of AxCx) also passed away this year. We wont have another band like Siege. Rest In Peace Kevin.
