I am a drummer who played with Sean in a band called Multi-Color House, in 1988. I couldn't appreciate what he was doing at that time because I had never played with a bassist like that. I considered him to be a frustrated lead guitarist that got stuck with a bass. (He was 18 and was still evolving) Now, in retrospect, I very much appreciate his style. R.I.P. Sean

Lmfao, frustrated lead guitarist that got stuck with bass. Why is that so funny 🤣

It seems to me that only now i realised that Malone really had gone. I guess i was in denial with the fact that such an "super-human" like he could just die. I always had this picture of Sean being this serious musical intelectual who is above every other bassist in metal (even his looks would tell me that) and now to think that he was as human as it gets it kinda teaches us , in a rough way, that talented and gifted people are still people and mental health is so serious that it can get the best out of a HERO like Malone. Everytime i comeback to my suicidal thoughts i will remember Malone and , as a matter , out of respect for his life and legacy, i will live my life in its entirely.

Rip, Sean Reinert. Rip, Sean Malone.

"Love every sound" - Sean Malone Thanks for everything Sean.

I am 35 and have listened to this band for half of my life. It’s hard to find proper words to explain this thing. You can lose your friends, your wife, your love, but music will be with you forever. It’s like a best friend. Looking forward to seeing Paul with Cynic at a gig.

I won't lie, i discovered Cynic yesterday. I always been such a huge fan of Death, my favorite album is Human even after listened it more than 500 hundred times... I discovered this band yesterday, and im really glad to know that my favorite drummer played in this beautiful band, Paul is such an legend too. Love you guys and love this beautiful song

Rest in peace to both Malone and Reinert, I have no idea who I would be if I didn't listen to cynic and death. I'm a 16-year-old guitarist and I've had struggles with depression, anxiety, and suicidality my whole life, and unfortunately, I lost my first love to suicide last year and spent the rest of the year recovering in treatment, I always felt so alone. In December I found out you both passed away, and I was miserable for the next week, but there was a part of me that felt validated, my hero Sean Malone was going through similar things I was going through, but unfortunately didn't make it out. I realized that if I killed myself, all of my dedication to music was for nothing and I wouldn't be able to continue to make music that I love ever so deeply. Thank you both for just existing and doing what you love to do.

His fretless sound like a salute from other world to us. R.I.P🖤

I just heard about his passing. I loved his Gordian Knot music. The song Grace with hit even harder when I listen to it now. What a sad loss! Rip!

Paul Masvidal Argentina is waiting for your soul and Art!!!! 🥰

Not having Malone in Retraced was a fatal mistake in an otherwise flawless discography. This is the best version. How can one man be so importan?

I couldn't watch this back when it was first released. Since I finally could today, I guess I'm a little further along grieving the magnificent talent that we lost when Sean Malone left us. Still hurts, but it was worth it. That fretless work is utterly sublime, and a sublime take on a great tune.

Cynic is immortal. Thank you paul for sharing this. You represent all that's good and precious in the music we share our passion for, and deserve every single inch of love, respect and tears we manage to return to you.

Sean Malone you touched my heart thanks for every single song you played. You're in a better place doing great things. Descansa en paz hermano. 🙏🙏🇲🇽🇲🇽

RIP Sean, this band has gotten me through some dark times in my life. I want to thank you Paul and the rest of the band for creating such great music, it has helped me a lot through my life.

RIP Sean M. and Sean R. Cynic is my favorite band of all time, and those 3 guys are some of the most beautifully talented musicians the world will ever know. It is saddening to know that I will never hear new Cynic music. I am so sorry to Paul, he lost them both in the same year. Much love, healing and peace to you, Paul.

​@@dnbwu83h82wn28unbinb the new album was Paul saying goodbye to both Seans, the cover was made by Martina Hoffman (Robert Venosa's wife) as a tribute to her dead husband. The music is magical, Im sure bot Seans are there in the recording studio playing next to Paul playing you just need to hear with your soul. Its a masterpiece and probably the last Cynic album. But as Paul finalizes his mourning maybe we can wait for Cynic Mk2 or ReCynic or wathever he might call It.

Huge loss... This is so sad to hear... R.I.P Sean. you leyend, amazing human being. See you in eternity. ☄️

I got to see Sean play at a Thorougbred Music Store Clinic in Clearwater. I had heard his name. He actually blew me away. Playing his Kubicki I seem to recall. So sad to hear of how he passed. RIP Sean. Beautiful player.

One of the most beautiful songs of all time. Thanks for these treasure.

One of my heroes in music is Sean Malone, his work on fretless bass will prevail for eternity, thank you for everything Sean.

Please get this version on spotify... it's so good

On friday when I read what had happened to Sean Malone, I felt shocked and my soul just couldn't handle it for a second. This year has been hard to get through and I contemplated suicide more than once. At my worst, I spoke up and told my cousin about it, and he really helped me to get out of that mindset. I still have good days and bad days like everyone, but damn, the passing of Malone and Reinert hit me hard. I get chills everytime for poor Malone thinking he could have gotten more help, but I also rejoice in thinking that he's no longer in pain. His amazing musicality will always inspire me to be better every day and I will be dedicating my next album to him, where I will be talking of my own suicide as a concept. It will follow a narrative and such. Rest easy, Sean Malone. And see you on the other side. Thank you for everything.

Just when I thought this song couldn't get any more beautiful. Rest in peace Sean.

This is beyound touching and beautiful. RIP.

Hey paul, It's 3:40 in the morning right now, I just came back home from backlining a gig and stumbled here by chance. Might be a little incoherent and emotional. A little more than a decade ago when I started learning bass my teacher decided to get me to learn this song, which is how I was introduced to cynic.

..On September 11th, 2016 i lost my best friend, Rob Delugach.. For weeks after he passed I couldn't get this song from my mind. It haunted me for months and months.. Maybe even over a year or more.. Upon seeing this.. I had to try and watch it. The moment, Reinert appeared i cried like a fucken baby.. Rest in peace Sean Malone.. And you too my dearest brother Sean Reinert..

Rest In Peace Sean Malone and Sean Reinert. Two of my musical heroes gone too soon. They’ll forever live in our hearts 🖤.

My brother brought home "Focus" back in the early 90s and it made a lasting impacting on me. So terribly sad to lose Sean Malone after we lost Sean Reinert not long ago. Your music will not be forgotten...

Altough I consider myself an avid follower of "the metal scene" in general, for somehow I just learned about his passing. Sean and Sean were instantly two of my favourite musicians after I heard Death - Human and Cynic's first album respectively. Such talend. I wish Paul and Seans' families all the best and all the strength. Sad day.

its not easy to tell how awesome sean was,no word can describe it..

We have so much love for you Sean. Cynic has and always will be such a massive influence on us.

Straight through the heart. Thanks for sharing this. I'm out of words but a rush of feelings.. and tears... RIP Sean ❤️

Three prog gods together playing such beautiful music! Only one remains now... So sad.

Still so heartbroken. So thankful that their music will be an integral part of the rest of my life and I can enjoy them the rest of my days.

An amazing musician, and a true innovator. Even when I wasn't actively looking for his music, I still found his playing or influence in so many places, and that's just a surface-level indicator of all the people he reached. There are many people who will continue to explore the boundaries of music and art, and as they do so, I'm sure Sean's music will be ringing in their mind.

I understand and can deeply relate with why Sean felt he needed to leave. But so much sadness has been left behind. Sean I pray you found peace for all eternity.

His eyes always looked like he was sad. RIP to all souls who gave up before reaching happiness.

Man, Sean Malone was one of the many greats made me want to play bass, even have his instructional books he's written. I took his his death pretty hard. RIP Sean Malone and RIP Sean Reinert.

I've tried to watch this video several times since it was posted, and I just can't do it. From note one of Sean Malone's playing, it just makes me so sad. He was such a brilliant human and musician, and to think that he and Sean Reinert are no longer with us to share their gifts is just too much for me to make it through the video right now. Thank you for posting this.

Wonderful tribute...such a beautiful song. May his soul be at rest.

Some of the deepest and most innovative musicians of the XX century. We love you.

I listen to this whenever I need to feel something and just crumble. This is the most powerful bass performance I've ever heard; the solo is simply perfect.

i haven’t cried in a long time and this really brought me to tears rest in peace one of the best rhythm sections in music history

Illusions leave no mark, friend, and pain very much does. It is up to the individual, however, to decide if that mark will be beautifying or condemning. Pain can change a person in profound ways. But how one processes it determines how that pain manifests. Sometimes it can be a useful tool. Other times, it can be a hindrance. Strive to use it as a growing experience. The alternative is destruction of self.

Very powerful performance. This should be officially released on an album, the sound and performances are top notch. Sean was such an exquisite composer of lines that burst with emotion and propel the song in the most beautiful ways…

I still look up to these fallen hero’s. His 5005e fretless sounds absolutely incredible and I dream of having my own one day! Paul what you all achieved will influence generations to come and resonate forever within the motions of a universe. In those moments of darkness and introspection, I hope their legacy blesses you with strength and you heal. Please know it has and always will be, an honour to have listened, watched, studied, reflected, meditated and played along to, a part of the journey!

Being a drummer myself, I have always admired Sean Reinert's artistry and precision and Malone's exceptional bass performance and unique tone. Knowing they are both gone is like I have lost two great friends.

As I was about to go to bed, for some strange reason Sean's name popped into my head and I felt compelled to pull up some video of him playing... it seems like the universe pointed me towards this tribute. I have fond memories of this song; had I thought of it a day earlier I would have missed this.
