The grindcore legend, Blake Harrison, has died at the age of 48. The cause of death was heart failure. Blake was battling and beating cancer and a number of other health issues that followed.

He was best known for being a member of the iconic US grindcore group, Pig Destroyer between 2006 and 2022; but Blake was active in other musical projects as well, such as Hatebeak, Zealot R.I.P., TRIAC, Tentacles of God, etc.

Rest in power.

That is way too young and sadly makes me think either suicide or drug related (hopefully neither but it sucks regardless)

R.I.P. Blake! I'll throw on some Phantom Limb in his memory.

> either suicide or drug related
Allegedly, he was battling with cancer, but I can't say anything for sure.
Sad and shocking news... he posted just a few days ago on instagram about his vinyl collection update...

I always worry about suicide in these cases, but usually there will be a message asking others to seek help… I’m not sure what could’ve happened, but it’s a genuine tragedy. 48 is sooo young…

RIP Blake

R.I.P. Blake

Blake added such a cool soundscape to Phantom Limb, Book Burner, and Head Cage (in addition to the several EPs) with his use of noise/samples/ambience

RIP BLAKE! last I heard he was undergoing some testing for sleep apnea so here hoping it wasn’t that. He’s battled cancer among other things over the years so really it could be anything. Everybody go listen to TRIAC, Blake sang for them and they’re a highly under appreciated killer grind band from DC

He had been battling cancer the past few years and his heart failed in the middle of surgery - per his 10 year partner

Blake was so well loved. Absolutely massive rip.
