In sad news, a 21 year old man has died at a recent Chelsea Grin and Carnifex show in the US.

The deceased, Nick Wright, died during a Chelsea Grin/Carnifex show, which was supported by Sworn In and The Family Ruin, at The Agora Theatre in Cleveland, Ohio, on March 15th. While the cause of Wright’s death isn't fully known right now, reports have said “a number of those alleged to have been in attendance [say] that Wright apparently passed out (or had a seizure) and suffered some head trauma in the ensuing fall.”

Wright had initially come to see Chelsea Grin, but sadly "passed out before Sworn In went on and was immediately rushed to the hospital.” Chelsea Grin confirmed the horrible news on Facebook with a post that has now been deleted (for unclear reasons). Sadly, this isn't the first time a fan of the band has died at one of their shows, with the tragic passing of a young female fan during the bands set at Warped Tour in 2012.

Our thoughts and condolences go out to the family of the deceased. Take care of each other out there.
