Members of a world famous heavy metal band, who have sold more than five million albums worldwide, have paid tribute to two men killed in a horrific car crash near Braintree.
Bullet For My Valentine posted a tribute to James Simmons and Corran Powell on their Facebook page, which has almost 10 million fans, last Monday.
The famed band members, who hail from Wales, also posted a video of James and Corran, known as Coz, playing a cover of Bullet For My Valentine’s single Your Betrayal, which they performed as part of Braintree Sound Academy.
The post, which has been liked by 5,000 people, read: “We received some very sad news over the holidays, when we learned that two young Bullet fans tragically lost their lives in a car accident."
