At the age of 35, Derek Jones, the band’s original guitarist, passed away. Falling in Reverse played post-hardcore and punk-pop music. The unknown is the cause of death. Ronnie Radke, Jones’ bandmate, tweeted a confirmation of the information. The vocalist penned the following about the electric guitarist: “I’ll never forget when you picked me up from jail in your old tour van to start Falling In Reverse.”
“I shall always weave your essence into the songs I compose. Derek Jones, please go in peace. My heart is shattered. Jones was born in Lake Forest, California, on June 5, 1984. He learned to play the violin, saxophone and guitar as a child.
In an interview with Alternative Press, he remembered that as a youngster, punk music and political punk rock “heavily affected” him and that he “always looked up to AFI and Swedish metal bands like At the Gates and Soilwork.”
Jones joined the post-hardcore band A Smile from the Trenches in 2007, and in the initial iteration of Falling In Reverse, he teamed up with Radke. Until 2010, when he formally departed A Smile from the Trenches, he was a part of both bands.
The Drug in Me is You, the debut album from Falling In Reverse, featured Jones and lead guitarist Jacky Vincent. Jones, the only band member outside Radke to appear on every studio record, would alternate between rhythm and lead during his time with Falling In Reverse.
I will never forget the day you brought me up from jail. To begin falling backward in Your vintage tour bus, I will always weave your energy into the music I create. Derek Jones, please go in peace. My heart is shattered.
