Ivan Moody Is Retiring From Heavy Metal

Five Finger Death Punch frontman Ivan Moody is “retiring from heavy metal.”The singer made the announcement onstage at a gig at the Ball Arena in Denver, Colorado on Friday, saying there will be one more Five Finger Death Punch album.Moody told the crowd, “The last 15 years of my life I have toured the world, I have seen every country, every city on this planet at least twice. That’s a fact. And through that time, as many of you parents know. I have missed a lot of time with my kiddos. So I made them a deal today, and I’m going to stick to it. After this year, I am going to make one more Five Finger Death Punch album and then I am retiring from heavy metal.”It’s not the first time Moody said he was quitting the band.In June 2017, he told a crowd in Holland that it would be his last show with the band, though he later admitted that he had “fallen off the wagon.”
