RIP to an amazing human being. Thank you for all the amazing music, shows and just being a cool guy to your fans. We love you Andy!!!

Still kinda shocked. A tragic loss. One of the coolest fuckers out there in the scene. RIP.

Absolutely tragic. By all accounts, he seems to have been a kind and sweet human to everyone he encountered.

I could have never predicted any of the stuff that happened to these guys when Radical first came out. RIP, what a loss.

Man... huge loss for the hardcore/metalcore community. Was lucky enough to be able to say I've met etih him, and he couldn't have been a more gracious person.

RIP to an absolute sweetheart and one of my favorite guitarists. this fucking sucks man

Probably the first real artist loss in a long time that definitely hit me. R.I.P. man

Heart stuff is so scary man. RIP to an absolute force of nature

What a legend with so much more life to live. RIP

fucking sucks

man this is sad. Rest in Peace

Ugh, what. He seemed like a genuinely good human being. Thanks for your contributions to some of the best metalcore albums of all time Andy. Don't worry, we'll all keep spinning your shit for years and years to come. RIP

awful, awful loss. horrific. 2026 keeps being terrible

Bloody hell man, this guy had a heart to match his size. Hard RIP

What the fuck. So sad. Huge loss for the world. RIP to a beautiful human.

Rest in peace

This one ruined me.

Rest easy you big beautiful man.

By all accounts a great guy

RIP

A loss as big as Andy's heart

so sad man. don't take a single day for granted.

rest easy andy.

Fuck I’ve been to Mr Smalls for dozens of shows.

RIP

Keith’s Instagram post broke me. Honestly, a lot of the tributes have.

The outpouring of love and tributes dedicated to this man is a testament to how good of a soul he truly was. Unfortunately I never got to meet Andy, but I just know if we ever crossed paths he would make me feel welcome as though we were always friends. A big man with an even bigger heart who was genuine to every person he came across.

This one really fucked me up man. RIP Andy, I really hope you and Bo are riffing in heaven.

The outpouring of love for this man has been something I've rarely seen. After a while, it's almost like we knew him personally, so many are the stories everyone is sharing. Keith Buckley's posts in particular were very touching, to the point it almost made me feel I had lost one of my own. I don't know, can anyone aspire to a better legacy than this? RIP Andy.

Big RIP, this dude was truly a killer guitar player and riff writer. The wave that hit the metal scene has actually been insane to see from this, sounds like everyone never had a single bad thing to say about him.

Was hoping until the very end that the initial reports weren't true, fuck. RIP Big Man.

RIP hard. Another legend gone too soon.

See you on the other side, brother.

Great guy all around. I was always interested in his work as a wrestler and it’s a shock that this happened man.

no disrespect, do you think he was on steroids? guy was pretty massive, maybe had something to do with the heart issue

What I've read (and the police confirm) is that Andy struck his head on a post and collapsed. But also that there were no signs of trauma. So it's a bit of a weird (and clearly very unfortunate) situation.

RIP, only saw him with ETID once in 2005.

RIP. My prayers go to all his family and friends.

RIP The Butcher

What a legend
