All That Remainsin Phil Labonte: musiikkimaailma menetti jotain tärkeää Olin menehtymisen myötä

All That Remainsin laulaja Phil Labonte on todennut uudessa haastattelussa musiikkimaailman menettäneen jotain todella tärkeää bändin kitaristin Oliver ”Oli” Herbertin menehtymisen myötä. Oliver löydettiin menehtyneenä viime lokakuussa kotinsa läheisestä lammesta. Labonte kommentoi Oliverin ainutlaatuisuutta seuraavasti:

”A lot of people don’t know, not only was Oli a great stage presence and a great guitar player, Oli was literally the best guitar teacher I’d ever seen. And I’d taken lessons from a bunch of dudes. Oli had a knowledge of music theory and this amazing patience and ability to articulate what he was trying to explain in a way that was… Everything seemed simple, and it just clicked. So, someone would come in, and they’d sit down, and I’d watch ’em. And everything that he said, there was never miscommunication. Everyone always was just, like, ’Okay. I get it. Okay, I get it. Okay, I get it. Okay, I get it.’ All the time. The way that he could transfer that knowledge to someone else was like no other human I’ve ever met in my life. As good as he was at guitar and playing on stage, he was a better teacher than anything else. So I really feel like music as a whole lost something significant.”
