Nevermore, Sanctuary singer Warrel Dane dies

Heavy metal vocalist Warrel Dane, primarily known for his work with Sanctuary and Nevermore, passed away today (Wednesday, December 13) in São Paulo, Brazil. Dane reportedly had a heart attack during the night and efforts to revive him failed. Guitar player Johnny Moraes, a member of Dane's solo band, was with Dane in Brazil recording a new album and had this to say to UOL: "He was in the apartment where he stayed during the recording of the album when it happened. I gave him cardiac massage and we called the Mobile Emergency Care Service (SAMU), who came very fast, but when they arrived, he was already dead."
