Tarot - Drummer Dies
Band mates Zachary Hietala and Tommi Salmela have posted on their Facebook pages that Tarot long time drummer Pecu Cinnari has died from a long-term illness. The band didn't disclose what it was. He was in the band since 1985 when they changed their name from Purgatory to Tarot. The group has been on hiatus since 2015 due to an illness. Condolences to his friends and family.
The band wrote today: "We're devastated to inform that our dear drummer Pecu Cinnari has passed away last night due to a long-term illness."
Tarot wrote back on the 4th of November 2015 - Espoo, Finland: "Something about the current status: Many fans have been asking us when Tarot will play again or record new stuff. We have to say that 'here's a serious illness with one of our band mates. Until we know better, the band's on an indefinite hold. We've done new demos for Tarot and when the situation's gonna be clear, we will come back! Stronger, willing and with raised fists, as we always do!"

RIP. I could tell it was K7 just by the not-very-euphemistic-at-all news title. Should've been "Tarot - Drummer passes away" for Chrisssakes.

Fuck... 2015/16 just aren't the years for metal musicians, are they? Rest in peace, brother, thank you for your gift of music.

Tarot was one of the first metal bands I got into... This sucks and I wouldn't be surprised if they call it quits after this. R.I.P.
