The band posted the following on their Facebook page: "It is with a heavy heart that we inform you of the passing of our friend and bandmate Pascal Vervest. As many of you know, he had been fighting for his life after a tragic accident last Saturday night but lost the battle Tuesday November 8.

"On behalf of the family, we thank you for your interest and concern. All condolences here will be passed on to the family, which they appreciate sincerely. An online condolence register will soon be opened.
