Khaotika drummer, Nick Crisostomo (Dyret), perished in a van crash that occurred on I-85 in Georgia earlier this month.
The van carried members of his band as well as members of Wormreich, with guitarist Ian Andrew McKinney (Nazgul Vathran) and bassist Paul Truesdell of Wormreich also passing away. Several more members of both groups were severely injured in the crash.
Yesterday was Cristomo's birthday. To commemorate his life, Khaotika put together a tribute video. Watch the clip embedded below.

I played this tribute on my show last evening. The metal community mourns the passing of this fine young man . As a mother to see Nick in this video breaks my heart, he was somebodies son,friend,co-worker,band mate. It will take much time for all to heal this emotional loss. At the very least he died while doing something he loved and with friends. Rest in eternal peace Dyret \m/

Awesome tribute. Condolences to family and friends of Nick (Dyret). Nick, I've never met you, but you were a great musician and a great person (from what people who knew you have said). I wish I would have been able to catch one of your performances. You will be missed, and never will be forgotten. RIP Dyret \m/
Wishing members of Khaotika fast recoveries. Hail Khaotika!

An awesome tribute to Dyret of Khaotika, as well as Ian and Paul of Wormreich. R.I.P. ...... This is such a great slideshow and tribute. It is a shame these 2 bands have gone through such a horrific tragedy. My condolences to the Crisostomo, McKinney and Truesdell families in the loss of their loved ones. My continued well wishes for the physical and mental healing to all others who are suffering from the accident. Stay Dark!! Hail Khaotika!! \m

Loved the video of my family, my sister Lariyah rocked as usual, was there at Reggie's to see the performance, it was the best. Only met Nick that one night but I considered and still do consider him a brother. Cried for hours when I heard of his passing but I love the tribute. We miss you Nick but we will keep a part of you with us always!.Much love!! Hails!!!
