2018-08-26 by Rowan5215 EMERITUS | 73 Comments
Kyle Pavone, clean singer and keyboardist of metalcore act We Came as Romans, was pronounced dead today via an announcement on the band's Twitter. A statement from TMZ says Pavone was transported to a hospital in Michigan last Sunday, and died the morning of Saturday the 25th from an unclear cause. The band's twitter statement memorialises Pavone with a lyric - "will I be remembered or will I be lost in loving eyes?" - and asks for grieving fans to stay tuned for charity donation details later in the week. Pavone was 28.

He'll be remembered, definitely. When I was in my metal phase 5-6 years ago, We Came As Romans were always hovering over me. I've never been a big fan of their music, but they were omnipresent. I wonder where they'll go from here.

And 28 is far, far too young. R.I.P.

This hits me so hard, WCAR was the first band that got me into metalcore as a whole. It's awful news, Kyle was such a loving and nice guy

RIP

Although I couldn't stand this guy's singing, rest in peace. You will forever be instilled somewhere deep inside my heart that stores nostalgia. Even though I didn't care for his singing, I'm pretty sure this guy did wonders with producing their albums and composing the piano and synth parts. To Plant A Seed had the most wonderful atmosphere thanks to him. He will be missed.

Man I freaking loved this band in high school. Still listen to their older stuff even now. This breaks my heart especially since we’re about the same age. So, so young and tragic.

I remember working at Wapred Tour 2015 and meeting Kyle. Because the past few concerts rained out, they put all the headliners on first. WCAR was so excited to close the show that night. I loved how the crowd lifted him as he kneeled during the bridge of 'Hope' when he sung, "We won't fall to our knees/we are the one true hope/so give me an answer," and the rain just started pouring after that. Such an underrated group in todays spectrum. RIP.

I think it was just assault, and no excuses but was a mild case by most standards. He actually apologized for the crap he did when he was younger before any accusations appeared. He did do some rough stuff though.
Still really sad, been on a Discog run

This is the band that got me into metalcore. Kind of a gateway to Underoath/ABR/TDWP. Saw them so many times, the guy always seemed like nice loving dude. Hearing this yesterday was surreal, still hasn't totally set in. One thing I always admired about them is that they never seemed to have beef with themselves or others - everybody loved the dudes and never had any drama. Their lineup remained the same for about a decade. It blew my mind when the drummer Eric stepped down....but that doesn't even compare to this. Never would have guessed WCAR, of all bands, would be dealing with a loss this great. RIP Kyle.

Heard through the grapevine that their tour manager said OD. But I understand that with severely depressed people, the line between accidental OD and intentional OD can get blurry.

RIP. These dudes slapped when I was in high school. Jamming out to the Dreams EP and To Plant a Seed. They formed in Troy, MI, not even half an hour from where I live. When I was a kid I thought it was really cool seeing a 'local' band making waves in the metalcore scene I was just getting into.

been reading about this all day, people are saying it was heroin.

he was in the hospital a week before he passed, so maybe a coma was involved after an overdose

poor guy. rest in peace, brother. love the electronics you wrote on the new album

Yeah. No one just drops dead at 28. Usually drugs or car crash in those cases. Regardless this guy has been on my mind the past few days. I’m still bummed out. I really feel for his band mates and family. I had a roommate who struggled with heroin. He’s been in and out of rehab a couple times. I don’t think he’ll ever quit it. Some bad stuff. Not saying that’s the case, but wouldn’t be surprised if so
