On the passing of Sean Malone.
Since my friend and Cynic bandmate Sean Malone's passing in late 2020, many people have publicly speculated about, and privately reached out to me regarding, the circumstances of his death. I have kept my silence as I have worked through my grief and out of respect for Malone's privacy. Questions and rumors have persisted, so I want to share what I can with the many fans whose lives he touched so deeply and who are seeking closure.
On December 7, 2020, Malone was found dead by suicide in Largo, Florida, where his mother had lived. She had been ailing for some time before her death in 2018; Malone had been her sole caregiver during her difficult final year. Then, in January 2020, we suddenly lost our bandmate Sean Reinert. Combined with his mother's loss, it was an emotional double whammy that hit Malone hard.
After his mother’s death, we spoke often, having long chats about grief, loss, and the future of Cynic. I urged Sean to move out to California and live with me so he could get back on his feet and start fresh, and he did. I noticed a newfound vigor in Malone I hadn't seen before. He was excited to be in the world again, we were working on new music, and he even began teaching bass privately. Then came the pandemic. Everything shut down and so did Malone. His pain and suffering re-emerged and his light began to dim.
Matters took an unexpected turn. Late one early summer night, he disappeared. I called him, left messages, texted, emailed, contacted missing persons and everyone we had in common, but no one had heard anything. There was no response. He quit the world. My hope that he was regrouping in private and would turn up safely turned to heartache on December 7th.
As I share this sad news about his death, I want to celebrate his life by sharing one of his most beautiful and lyrical moments ever recorded, and one which his fans have not yet heard. A few years after the release of Cynic's Re- Traced EP, Sean Malone recorded fretless bass on this solo guitar and vocal track titled “Integral.” Here's a video celebrating his playing, and a full transcription in his honor along with the song file + transcriptions for download from Bandcamp.

I am grateful to be able to share this video with you now, and I will share details about new music in the coming weeks. Please celebrate the genius and transcendent talent that was Sean Malone. Read more about his fascinating life, unique passions and accomplishments at his Wikipedia page.
As an act of support, and in honor of Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, I invite you to donate as you wish for the “Integral” song download which comes with a guitar/bass transcription of the song and an instrumental (no bass mix) for fellow musicians to play along with. 50 percent of proceeds will be shared with suicide prevention organizations To Write Love On Her Arms (TWLOHA), and The Trevor Project. The remaining will go towards funding a documentary about the lives and artistry of Malone and Reinert.
With love and courage, Paul Masvidal

Bas tuzno, mega se smorih

[Haos sam ja]

Tuga. Nisam imao pojma da je reč o samoubistvu, ne znam da li je to sad prvi put otkriveno kroz ovaj Paulov post. Baš specijalna ekipa je ovo bila, njih trojica.

[ShinigamY]

Zvanicno nikad nije bilo objavljeno, ali bile su glasine kao sto je napisano, pa bolje da kaze kako jeste ... Stvarno tuzna prica, i pesma je predobra i emotivna do bola, posebno sa ovakvim backgroundom kao ovaj post. 

[Haos sam ja]

Meni su sve te stvari nepotrebne generalno, retraced, acoustic, whatever bukvalno, ali integral birth je ionako jedna od najboljih pesama ikad pa može u kojoj god varijanti.

Michael Berberian, president and founder of Season of Mist, adds: "I have, by now, released close to one thousand albums. None have been more dramatic, none have even been more difficult than this one. I can’t listen to Ascension Codes without goose bumps, a mixed feeling of pride – because it’s a musical milestone, but it also contains a lingering layer of sadness. I hear Paul’s pain on this record. I can feel it, I can touch it. But it’s transcended. 'Art is to console those who are broken by life,' said Van Gogh. Here is a demonstration of that."

Ali ovaj neki growl sample što ima na početku, da pošalje lažnu "vratio se Cynic" poruku

Simpatično, trebalo da izađe pod Paul Masvidal imenom.

Lepa pesma 🙂

[VoivodBG]

Iskreno ovo je daleko bolje od vecine pesama na Kindly Bent To Free Us. Jedino ne znam zasto je ovako muljav zvuk, da li je miks los, ili Youtube lose kompresuje. Radujem se albumu i nadam se da ce biti dobar za vise slusanja.

[Haos sam ja]

Sasvim ok pesma, jeste malo nabacana i trying too hard al opet bolja od maltene bilo čega iz post-TIA faze.

[Chicken Little 420]

Nova, doduse kroz drum playthrough

 

[Demon Seed]

Fenomenalno, sjajan bubnjar.

Više sam na strani "vratio se Cynic" i ovoga što priča Berberian, nego stanovišta da je trebalo pod Masvidalovim imenom. Teško je za slušanje s obzirom na sve, ali je dostojno oba Sean-a i album na nivou TiA u najavi.

Može taman za vikend.

[Marko, Mon_a[MOR]e]

Samo cekam nekog pametnjakovica da kaze kako je bolji album od Kindly Bent To Free Us 😀

[VoivodBG]

Zar nije? 😁

[Chicken Little 420]

Meni se čini da jeste 🙂

[Atheist]

Dosta bolji
