Will Carroll, Death Angel drummer said about period in coma and seeing the Devil:
“I woke up on the hospital bed with tubes coming in and out of me. And there was a nurse right there and my first words were, ‘Am I still in hell? She ignored me.”
According to him, he saw the Devil during the coma. It was a woman and punished him for the deadly sin of sloth and turned him into a “Jabba the Hutt-like-monster”. This monster vomited blood until he had a heart attack.
About his life after this experience, he said:
“I’m still going to listen to satanic metal, and I still love Deicide and bands like that. As far as for my personal life and my experience of what I went through. I don’t think Satan’s quite as cool as I used to.”
In addition to him, musicians like guitarist Gary Holt (Exodus) and bassist Steve DiGiorgio were also infected. But Will was in serious trouble having been in a coma for a long twelve days.
His doctors also talked about his condition:
“He still was near the limits of what we could do with our supportive care, and we were very worried about him,” said Dr. George Horng, a pulmonologist. He wasn’t getting worse, but if he were to get worse, there wasn’t much more that we could have done.”
