Eagles of Death Metal continue to reflect on the tragic terrorist attack that took place during their recent concert at Le Bataclan in Paris, where 89 concertgoers lost their lives. Drummer Julian Dorio is the latest to reveal his thoughts on the horrific experience, which he's done through his Instagram account.
Today (November 24), he posted a photo of himself lighting a candle in a church, sending out his thoughts to the many killed during the mass shooting in the nightclub, as well as other victims claimed during the city-wide attacks.
"Absolute and unnecessary evil turned our world on its head," he wrote. "I am beyond grateful that I was able to find a way out of the venue, but I am mourning those who did not, including our mate, Nick Alexander."
As previously reported, lives taken inside Le Bataclan on November 13 included Eagles of Death Metal merch seller Nick Alexander, as well as record company colleagues Thomas Ayed, Marie Mosser and Manu Perez.
In Dorio's post, he goes on to thank various figures for their kindness, including a man who ushered the band into a taxi to make an escape and a fan who lent them a cellphone.
Dorio concluded: "I am forever changed but hold fast to the love around us. I'm counting down the days until I get to finish that concert. Peace & love. #prayforparis #bataclan #eodm"
Last week, Eagles of Death Metal issued a group statement on the incident, which honoured the dead and noted that they are "proud to stand together, with our new family, now united by a common goal of love and compassion."
A fuller interview with the band is forthcoming on Vice. A teaser of the talk can be found below, along with Dorio's Instagram post.
