PAUL RAVEN R.I.P
Mob Research founder and bassist Paul Raven passed away today Saturday 20th october, apparently from a heart attack. The cause of the attack is currenly unknown. He had just arrived in Europe to commence recording with his friends Treponem Pal.
Raven was the charismatic bass player for Killing Joke for many years, also Prong and most recently Ministry and Mob Research. He was a great friend to many and a legendary bass player. We shall all miss Paul incredibly. When we have more information on his untimely passing and cause of death we will let you know. We are still in a state of shock. We understand the funeral services will be held in England. Any messages of condolence are welcomed.
We love and miss you man...

When we heard the news of Paul Ravens passing this weekend it was as if all of us had been kicked in the gut. I personally was not prepared for such overwhelming grief.
Having worked closely with Paul on his signature stompbox over the last year and a half we can not begin to express our profound sadness. We grew a bond based in creativity but grounded in the business world, and watching Raven weave the two was a pure joy. As many have said over the weekend he was one of the good ones. A Rock N Roll pirate, a freedom fighter, a creative spirit that will not be stopped.
We send our best wishes to Paul's friends, family, and most importantly to his children.
