Lazarus A.D. Drummer Ryan Shutler Dead at Age Twenty-Eight

Correction, 12:45 pm: An earlier version of this story said that Shutler was twenty-nine at the time of his death; his girlfriend informs that he was actually twenty-eight. We apologize for the error.

Very sad news: Ryan Shutler, drummer for Lazarus A.D., has passed away at age twenty-eight. According to Lambgoat, “Details surrounding his death have not been disclosed, though it’s being said that a heart attack may have been to blame.”

Regardless of the circumstances: we’ve been Lazarus A.D. fans here at MetalSucks for some time now, and have worked with them on several occasions. They’re good dudes and this is just… horrible. Really, really horrible.

Our thoughts are with Shutler’s family and friends during this difficult time.
