His passing was announced by his record label Conquest Music in a statement on Facebook which reads in part, ”On behalf of his family, Conquest Music are sad to confirm the death of Paul Andrews, professionally known as Paul Di'Anno. Paul passed away at his home in Salisbury at the age of 66.

His first career retrospective album, The Book of the Beast was released in September 2024 and featured highlights of his recordings since leaving Iron Maiden. Conquest Music are proud to have had Paul Di'Anno in our artist family and ask his legion of fans to raise a glass in his memory.” Paul Di’Anno was the lead vocalist for Iron Maiden from 1978-1981 and sang on their 1980 debut self-titled album, their 1981 album Killers, and their live EP Maiden Japan which was also released in 1981. Paul Di’Anno had a project called Di’Anno and also played with Gogmagog, Battlezone, Warhorse, Praying Mantis, and Killers.

<p>Back when Leigh Whannell and Blumhouse teamed up with Universal to bring new versions of their classic monster stable to screen, it didn’t seem like Whannell — previously the writer of the Insidious movies and the director of Upgrade — would be the one in charge of what came after the failure of “The Dark Universe.” Yet his Invisible Man was a bona fide hit (one of the last ones before COVID came along, anyhow), so he became the man.

MakeWar have cancelled their upcoming performance at Fest in Gainesville, Florida. The band announced this in an Instagram post which reads, ”Dear Fest family, It breaks our hearts to announce that we have to cancel our shows at @thefestfl this year. Our drummer, Ale, tore his rotator cuff a couple of weeks ago. We were holding out hope that he’d recover in time, and while there’s been some improvement, he’s still not in shape to rock the drums next weekend. This really sucks because Fest is hands down our favorite time of the year. We love playing it, seeing our friends, and watching all the incredible bands. We’re truly sorry. Accidents happen, but we’ll come back stronger and better next year we promise you that! Much love, Jose, Edwin, and Ale MakeWar”MakeWar released their album A Paradoxical Theory of Change earlier this year. See the post in full below.
