Carlos Denogean, drummer of North Carolina stoner/sludge metal act Weedeater, passed away on Friday, August 24. Circumstances surrounding his death have yet to be revealed.
Denogean joined Weedeater in 2017 following the departure of Travis Owen. The band put forth this statement regarding his passing:
"There is no easy way to say this. Our dear friend and bandmate Carlos Denogean passed away yesterday. It is with a heavy heart and intense sadness that we bring you this unfortunate news. He left this world far too soon and will be missed immensely by all of us. Anyone that knew Carlos was enamored by his kindness and his warm personality. He was an incredibly talented musician and a real joy to be around. He brought something truly special to the band and we all loved working with him. We simply cannot express how devastated we are by this loss. We don't know any details at this time and we ask that you please leave us to grieve now along with Carlos' family. Thank you for all of your kind wishes. Cherish what you have while you have it."
