Dammit, this hurts.
Legendaty Motorhead guitarist Phil Campbell has passed away at age 64.
Former MOTÖRHEAD guitarist Phil Campbell has died at the age of 64. His passing was announced earlier today (Saturday, March 14) in a social media post on the social media of his band PHIL CAMPBELL AND THE BASTARD SONS, in which he was joined by his sons Todd, Dane and Tyla.
The message reads: “It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved father, Philip Anthony Campbell, who passed away peacefully last night following a long and courageous battle in intensive care after a complex major operation.
“Phil was a devoted husband, a wonderful father, and a proud and loving grandfather, known affectionately as ‘Bampi‘. He was deeply loved by all who knew him and will be missed immensely. His legacy, music and the memories he created with so many will live on forever.
“We kindly ask that our family’s privacy is respected during this incredibly difficult time.”
Double Dammit.
He had started a new band with his kids and it was a real Ripper. They had been touring all over and I was praying that they would come to Portland.
Looks like that dream is as dead as he is now.
Rest In Peace dude.
You rocked the shit out of the entire world.
Tear it up son.
Too soon. Too soon.
Requiescat in Pace.
