Longtime Hum drummer Bryan St. Pere has died. He was 52 years old. No cause of death has been publicly revealed.

Posting on social media, the band explained:

“It is with very heavy hearts and tear filled eyes that we share the news that our beloved friend and bandmate, Bryan St. Pere, has passed away. We are devastated and deeply saddened by his sudden, and unexpected passing. Bryan was a dear friend, a loving father, brother and was an incredible person and musician. We all feel extremely lucky to have shared time and space with him. Peace and love to all who knew Bryan, and those he touched. We will miss him dearly.

Hum regrouped in 2020 to release Inlet, their first new music in 22 years. Their 1995 album, You’d Prefer an Astronaut, has become a cult favorite in the alternative rock and metal worlds. St. Pere had been in the band since 1990 and played on all five of their albums.

On behalf of everyone at MetalSucks, we wish Bryan’s family, bandmates and friends all the best during this difficult time.
