Falling in Reverse Guitarist Leaves Band

Falling in Reverse is going to be down a member during their upcoming set of tours. On Friday (Oct. 30), longtime guitarist Jacky Vincent revealed that he had left the group after being with them since the inception of the group. In a statement released exclusively to Alternative Press, the guitarist as well as Falling in Reverse frontman Ronnie Radke, announced that the “split is amicable” and that all “parties are on good terms.” The press release can be read below.

“Falling In Reverse has announced that Jacky Vincent is leaving the band to concentrate on his solo career.

Ronnie Radke said, “I remember the first time I met Jacky, I walked out of prison and he was waiting there so stoked. Hands down one of the greatest guitar players to ever live. And one of the most genuine people I’ve ever met. I wish him nothing but the best. Love you Jacky.”

Jacky Vincent said, “I can’t thank Ronnie, Derek and Ryan enough for the last 5 years. I will most likely never laugh as hard again in my life. I feel proud to have played with such brilliant musicians and I will miss touring with them enormously. I am forever grateful to have experienced what I did in Falling in Reverse and I feel very fortunate to have lived what I dreamt of doing for so many years. To the fans, I loved meeting you all. I kept as many as your gifts and letters as I could and they all mean so much. Thank you for everything.”

The split is amicable and all parties are on good terms.

All upcoming shows will go on as currently scheduled.”

At the time of the press release, there was no mention of who will be replacing Vincent. Instead, it appears that Radke and company already have someone and will be revealing their identity soon. Fans of the band will be introduced to the new member during Falling in Reverse’s upcoming “Supervillains Tour” with Attila, Metro Station, and Assuming We Survive. Dates for that tour as well as “The Christmas Vacation Tour” with Atreyu and From Ashes to New, can be seen below.

Falling in Reverse’s latest album,  Just Like You, was released back in February. Now that Vincent has left the group, the only remaining member from the original lineup is Radke.

Oli Sykes in the Middle of Another Feud

We all know that there was some major bad blood between Oli Sykes and Kellin Quinn earlier this year about some fan packages that Quinn had posted for the Sleeping with Sirens tour.

Now it looks like Sykes might be in the middle of another feud and this time it has nothing to do with Quinn or Sleeping with Sirens; it’s a looking more like a one-sided “disagreement” with Tyler, the Creator (you know, that guy that had his entire speech bleeped at one of those awards shows).

According to Tyler, Sykes stole some lyrics of his and put it on one of his shirts from his Drop Dead line, but instead of just calling Sykes out like a normal person, he took to Twitter to call him a “Tumblr Fag.” Then again, do you really expect some eloquence coming for a guy who’s speech was nothing but curse words roped together?

Tyler, the Creator tweeted the following when he found out about the shirt,” THAT KID WITH RADICAL LYRICS ON HIS SHIRT IS SOME TUMBLR FAG FUCK HIM DONT USE MY SHIT PUSSY” and Sykes, not one to give a crap about anything responded with, “I just thought skip school had more charm to it. You could try watchdogs but I think they have bigger fish to fry ✌️”.

And of course, not being one to miss a fight, Falling in Reverse’s Ronnie Radke had to put in his two cents, siding with Tyler. Radke wrote on his social media account, “Certain people that steal others art and music and designs WILL get exposed. You can’t just jack peoples shit dude. You know who you are” “Stop defending that fucking fraudulent pussy..”

And to think, this started over some lyrics that pretty much every kid in high school going through their rebellious phase has said more than a couple of times.
