Former MINISTRY And PRONG Drummer AARON ROSSI Dies At 44


The music world is mourning the loss of Aaron Rossi (PRONG, MINISTRY), who died at 44 from “a sudden, severe heart attack.”

Rossi died on January 27th, but news of his passing was only made public yesterday, Thursday, March 6th, through a Facebook post.

The post reads:  “It is with overwhelming sadness to share that on January 27, 2025, Aaron John Rossi passed away from a sudden, severe heart attack.

Aaron was a force with his own gravitational pull. His powerful energy instantly captured you. If you saw him on stage, you were blown away by his immense power, speed and agility – and if you were lucky enough to know him in person, you were equally taken by his kindness, humor and humility.

Aaron leaving us so soon is beyond devastating, but we know that he would not want to be remembered that way. He made us laugh and told us stories like it was his job. We sincerely hope you will share some of your own stories of Aaron in the comments.

“There will be a Celebration of Life in the future and details will be shared as soon as possible.

Aaron‘s talent on the drums and his ear for music was incomparable – and his sound will live on forever. He will always be The Shredder, The Beast, The Big Dog.

“Rock In Peace, Aaron! We love and miss you!!!”

PRONG frontman Tommy Victor said: “I’ve known about Aaron Rossi‘s passing for a few weeks now. It was requested that I not post anything until I was given the ok, but now since the tragic news is out, I need to finally come out and say how terrible I think this is. He was part of my inner sanctum of serious musical brothers. A great funny guy and a great drummer and dad. You are loved and you will be missed. Rest In Peace fine sir.”

MINISTRY‘s Al Jourgensen commented: “Great drummer, Great human being, He will be missed. Keep pounding that snare in the great beyond”.
