ROCKERS WE LOST IN 2012
The legendary and incredibly influential Montrose founder Ronnie Montrose passed away on March 3 at the age of 64. The heavy metal innovator had numerous battles prostate cancer during his final years, which eventually took Montrose’s life after five years of fighting the disease.
Ronnie Montrose lent his skills to the 1971 Van Morrison album ‘Tupelo Honey’ and was a member of the Edgar Winter Group before the inception of the band Montrose, which Ronnie formed with Sammy Hagar in the early ’70s.
Soon after his passing, a heartfelt statement was posted on Ronnie Montrose’s personal website. “He passed today. He’d battled cancer, and staved off old age for long enough. And true to form, he chose his own exit the way he chose his own life. We miss him already, but we’re glad to have shared with him while we could.”
Dee Cernile was the guitarist for Canadian hard rock band Sven Gali. Cernile passed away on Feb. 25 at the age
of 46 after a long and hard-fought battle with lung cancer.
Sven Gali began to achieve fame in 1992 with their self-titled debut, which earned the band a Juno Award. Cernile’s success with the band lasted until 1996 when the band broke up. The band however, reunited in 2007 to play sporadic shows including two benefit concerts for Cernile in 2009, with the guitarist himself taking the stage.
Sven Gali released a tribute message on their Facebook page after the death of their friend and guitarist. “He went so very peacefully with love surrounding him and his hand held. He is now resting in peace. His family would like to thank everyone for all of your love and support.”
Michael Davis, bassist for the politically charged punk-rock pioneers MC5, passed away at the age of 68 on Feb. 17. MC5′s influence in the hard-rock world stretches from their contemporaries the Stooges to future acts like Rage Against the Machine.
Davis was also a successful music producer and a talented graphic artist. In addition he started the Music is Revolution Foundation to help fund music classes in public schools.
The legendary bassist died at Enloe Medical Center in Chico, Calif., after being hospitalized for one month due to liver disease.

Our dear friend and band mate, “Otus” Tonmi Lillman, has sadly passed away.
He will be greatly missed and we send our condolences to his family and friends.
Otus: we thank You from the bottom of our hearts for the short time we got to know you and spend with you together.
Rest in peace, friend.

A heartfelt eulogy has been posted on Reale’s official website. “The RIOT army meant everything in the world to Mark., it’s what kept him going. The loyalty and love of the fans fueled his passion and desire to continue making music for as long as possible.”
Heavy metal lost an important name on Jan. 14 when former Diamond Head drummer Robbie France passed away at the age of 52. Born in Sheffield, England, Robbie France moved to Australia and studied at the National Academy of Rudimentary Drummers of Australia until 1974, when he began teaching his own students at the Australian Academy of Music at the young age of 15.

Singer Nicole Bogner passed away after a battle with an unspecified “serious disease” in early January 2012 at the age of 27. Bogner fronted the Austrian symphonic metal band Visions of Atlantis from 2000 to 2005, handling vocal duties on the band’s first two albums, ‘Eternal Endless Infinity’ and ‘Cast Away.’
Bogner possessed a haunting yet operatic voice, which helped give Visions of Atlantis their signature sound alongside co-vocalist Mario Plank. After Bogner’s passing, the band paid tribute to the late singer on their Facebook page. “With Nicole a great part of Visions of Atlantis died as well. We will always treasure your warm hearted soul, you will never be forgotten Nici.”
Larry “Rhino” Reinhardt, former guitarist for rock legends Iron Butterfly, passed away at the age of 63 on Jan. 2, 2012. Reinhardt was a member of Iron Butterfly shortly after they released their trademark hit ‘In-A-Gadda-Da-Vidda,’ playing on their 1970 album ‘Metamorphosis.’ Reinhardt also joined forces with Iron Butterfly bassist Lee Dorman and original Deep Purple singer Rod Evans for the supergroup Captain Beyond, which released a trio of charting albums throughout the rest of the decade.
According to his longtime girlfriend, Tracey Hooper, Reinhardt was taken off life support as requested in his living will after a struggle with complications from cirrhosis of the liver.
“He had a love for music and when he couldn’t play guitar he was depressed,” Hooper told reporters. “His love of music was everything.”

The cause of death has been officially ruled as coronary artery thrombosis due to pre-existing heart disease. GWAR have since retired the ‘Flattus Maximus’ character in honor of Smo
One of the saddest and most bizarre deaths of 2011 was that of Sole Remedy guitarist, Mikko Laine. Laine was reportedly sleeping backstage next to a fence after playing the ProgPower Festival in Holland, when a truck filled with stage equipment backed over the guitarist, ending his life. Laine was only 30 years old at the time of his death. Sole Remedy posted a tribute to Laine on their website, Mikko was a vibrant, happy and funny person with lots to offer to the world. We had the best times with him and we’ll be remembering him with warmth and smiles on our faces, hope you do

Taiji was a victim of epilepsy, chronic strokes and necrosis. After being arrested for a violent outburst on a Delta Airlines flight, the bassist attempted suicide by hanging himself with a bed sheet in his jail cell, which left him brain dead and on life support. On July 17, 2011, Taiji’s mother and fiancee took him off life support.
Scott Columbus was the longtime drummer for one of power metal’s most important acts, Manowar. The drummer spent 21 years with the band with a four year hiatus from 1991-1995. Columbus’ cause of death has not been publicly announced, but Manowar bassist and creative leader Joey DeMaio paid tribute to his bandmate during a show in the Netherlands. “Scott Columbus was our brother and your brother in metal,” said DeMaio. “He was a father, and he was a friend. And he was a great musician, and he was a great guy. And he had a heart of gold.”
Swedish black metal band Lifelover disbanded this year after founding member and multi-instumentalist Jonas “B” Bergqvist passed away on Sept. 10, 2011 at the young age of 25. The cause of B’s death is not of public knowledge, but the band has reassured their fans that suicide and foul play have been ruled out as potential causes. The band performed two final shows in Belgium and the Netherlands in honor of the fallen musician.
Mikey Welsh was best known for his three-year span as bassist for alt-rock band, Weezer. Welsh had struggled with drug use during his Weezer days, suffering a mental breakdown in 2001 that led to a suicide attempt and being committed to a psychiatric hospital. Strangely, Welsh predicted his own death via a post on his Twitter page. “dreamt i died in chicago next weekend (heart attack in my sleep). need to write my will today … correction – the weekend after next.” On Oct. 8, 2011, Welsh was found dead from a drug overdose in a Chicago hotel.
