Awsten Knight Obituary

Knight, Awsten

A product of Houston and the church, SOULSUCKER was a part of Awsten Knight, the vocalist of the band Waterparks. Rising to prominence in the late 2010s, Waterparks would release a handful of albums, under just as many record labels. During the cycle of the latest album, INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, a metaphysical manifestation of Knight called SOULSUCKER began to make itself known to the public and present its ideas in less than welcome ways. This side of the singer is the faction that harbored one of his greatest downfalls: a deep, built-in religious guilt that unknowingly affected many areas of his life. SOULSUCKER was never supposed to have an Earthly influence, and its existence was nothing more than a spiritual infection plaguing Knight, existing long before he was able to identify it. While only half of the antagonistic "being" is confirmed to be gone, we hope both halves may finally be put to rest in whatever realm they're supposed to subsist in. Knight hopes to someday move forward in a more positive direction, free from the weight of these two entities and bring more light, love, and luck into the world for everyone around him.
