On the morning of November 30, 2007, the day after his 21st birthday, bassist Patrick Mason was found dead in a friend's house. The band posted a note on their Myspace [ [http://www.myspace.com/agatg Arsonists Get All The Girls official MySpace] ] [ [http://www.absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?t=281265 Arsonists Get All The Girls Bassist Passes Away - News Article - AbsolutePunk.net ] ] :

We can't describe the pain and sorrow that we all are feeling right now. Last night/early this morning our bassist, Pat Mason, passed away. Pat was an amazing person and brother to all of us. It was his 21st birthday and we all got to see him at band practice. He then proceeded to go out to the bars. He went to sleep at a friend's house. We don’t know the full details but when friends tried to wake him up this morning he didn’t wake up. We could never trade him for the world and could never replace him. We will always love him and will always be in our hearts. We are going to continue with the band cause that is what Pat would have wanted. There will be a donation account set up soon for his family and possibly a local benefit show as well. Thanks for everyone for the support that the band has since the beginning. We love you all and Pat loves you all as well.
