Jason Richardson, guitarist for platinum-certified metalcore outfit All That Remains, took to social media late last night to air out some sharp frustrations, sparking speculation across the heavy music community. Though he didn’t reference anyone directly, his words were unmistakably pointed.
“I have not ever felt so disrespected, taken advantage of, for granted or undermined like this in my entire career. Unbelievable. Never again.”
The post has quickly caught fire among fans, especially given Richardson’s high-profile role in All That Remains and his history with several major acts. In response to the growing buzz, frontman Phil Labonte offered a brief statement on X (formerly Twitter), distancing himself from the situation when asked if he knew what was going on:
“idk? i haven’t spoken to him ?????”
Richardson has built a multifaceted career beyond his current band, including a string of successful solo releases, signature gear, online guitar courses, and plugins. Notably, he was previously involved in a public royalty dispute with Born Of Osiris and Sumerian Records tied to his earlier tenure with that band.
As of now, no further comments have been issued by either camp, leaving fans to wonder whether this latest statement points to tensions within All That Remains or another project altogether.
