I never like waking up to the news of anyone dying, so when I got word this morning that David Gold, lead vocalist/guitarist of Woods of Ypres, was killed in a car accident last night, you could imagine the feelings there. I was fortunate enough to have seen him perform with his band at Heathen Crusade III in 2008, and even without the interview possibility, he was one of the most approachable people at the festival. Even while having a post-show meal at the hotel, he was willing to go through with the interview and was the same person during the interview as he was at the show: engaging and passionate about what he did. David was a great guy and will be missed greatly.
