Deathcore newcomers Rev3rent have announced that vocalist Joshua Bailey-Guard will sit out the remainder of the band’s current tour because of mental health concerns. The announcement was reported on November 15, 2026, and places the singer’s well-being ahead of his immediate live commitments.
The decision means fans attending the remaining dates should not expect Bailey-Guard to appear with the group. The band is continuing its live activity with assistance from other vocalists, although the exact arrangements may differ between performances.
Bailey-Guard’s decision comes during a period of growing attention for Rev3rent. The band has been building an audience through its intense deathcore sound and live performances, making the temporary lineup change significant for followers hoping to see the group’s usual frontman.
The announcement identifies mental health as the reason for his absence. No specific diagnosis, treatment details or return date have been confirmed in the material available, and none should be inferred from the decision to step away.
Fans discussing the announcement have expressed support for the vocalist and emphasized the importance of prioritizing his health. Online discussion has also mentioned potential guest singers for remaining concerts, but the exact guest assignments should be checked against the band’s own announcements before attending.
Hello, I am coming on here to make a post addressing my future absences for the rest of the Slaughter to Prevail tour. Unfortunately I will not be performing for the remainder of this tour due to personal mental health reasons. I apologize to any fans who were excited to see me and to anybody this may disappoint. I hope you all can understand. My good friend Mike will be filling in for me in Canada, and my other good friend Cory will be filling in for the remaining shows after. I will be seeking professional help and will be back to participate all future activites with Rev3rent after this tour is over.
Please continue to support Rev3rent on these last few tour dates and support Cory and Mike. I love you guys and I am sorry again to disappoint, I look forward to seeing everyone in the future.
Rev3rent‘s rise up the deathcore ranks has been rapid, with the band’s debut album “She Let The World Run Rampant” recently arriving through Atlantic Records imprint Deep Love Recordings.
