As I Lay Dying Guitarist Slams Tim Lambesis
.
(Metal Hammer) Former As I Lay Dying guitarist Nick Hipa has slammed his former bandmate Tim Lambesis, saying the singer still thinks of himself as a victim - despite serving six years behind bars for plotting to have his wife murdered. Lambesis was jailed in 2014, leading Hipa to split with the band and form Wovenwar with Shane Blay, Josh Gilbert, Jordan Mancino and Phil Sgrosso - the latter leaving the band earlier this year. Lambesis recently filed a $35 million lawsuit against a medical team he alleges denied him medication after he was caged - a move which Hipa says proves the singer hasn't changed. Hipa tells Billboard: "It's sad to see somebody that we spent so much of our lives with end up in such a place. He could have made such a great impact on this world, but he just gave in to the worst parts of himself. "Even more discouraging for me is the fact that he's trying to file a lawsuit for that amount. It says to me he's still the same sort of personality at his core - nothing has changed. He thinks of himself a certain way, and he thinks of himself in a situation he created as a victim."
