Mike Tiner of All Shall Perish has opened up about what really happend with "firing" Eddie Hermida. He has stated that they were under pressure and limits from Suicide Silence's management that left them with no choice but to fire Hermida, who is the new Suicide Silence singer.





...Suicide Silence's management informed us of all of the things All Shall Perish would and would not be "allowed" to do. All Shall Perish could not play a show until Eddie was well "established" as the new singer of Suicide Silence. Suicide Silence's management told us that they would have to be well into their new album and touring cycle before All Shall Perish could be seen again with Eddie," Tiner told Metal Injection. 



"That is easily a year of All Shall Perish not being "allowed" to do anything; possibly more than a year. There were other rules, too, but this one was huge. When we heard this, we immediately all got on the phone with Eddie and asked him how him being in both bands could ever work, especially after this whole Death Angel thing. Eddie still insisted it could work but also maintained that Suicide Silence would be his priority. We asked Eddie if he was quitting and he said, 'No, I'm not. If you want me out of All Shall Perish, you'll have to fire me.'"


Tiner has reassured fans that ASP will continue on through this struggle. "All Shall Perish is no stranger to this kind of situation. We have come back every time we every time something or someone has tried to knock us down. We have come back and gotten better every time and this time is no different."
