9Electric celebrate Wayne Static's life by posting song featuring the late frontman
In light of what would have been Wayne Static's 49th birthday, Los Angeles-based 9Electric have posted a song celebrating the vocalist's life, titled “Destroy As You Go,” which features a guest vocal appearance from Static. Below, you can listen to the track, along with an accompanying music video featuring in-studio footage of the band and Static recording the track. Be sure to leave us a comment with your thoughts!
Singer/guitarist Wayne Static, founder of industrial metal band Static-X, passed away on Saturday, November 1 at the age of 48.
9Electric had this to say of the song:
We recorded the song in late 2010, before we had played our first show in 2011. Wayne was gracious enough to lend his voice to the track and he and his wife Tera even had a bit of a laugh at how reminiscent the song was to Static-X's sound. It was such a fun day in the studio recording the song as the video below illustrates. In 2012, Wayne took us out on the road and even jumped on stage a few times to rock ‘DESTROY' with us! Wayne believed in 9E from the very start and we will always be incredibly grateful for the opportunities that he gave our band.
