Singer/bassist for Mastodon. It's rumored he was the victim of a brutal assault.

Like them or not, we've got a man down.

From mtv.com it would appear that he was drunk and instigated a fight, and got his ass handed to him.

edit : Hes guitard/singer, not a bassist. hehe

Not saying its not true, but itd be stupid to take anything MTV says as true.

I heard that he's expected to be ok.

Troy Sanders is the bass player.

"It is rumored that Hinds' injury was sustained during a brutal assault that took place shortly after MASTODON performed "Colony of Birchmen" at the Palms Casino Fantasy Suites in Las Vegas. However, it should be noted that this information has not yet been corroborated by an official source."
That sounds terrifying though.

Heavy metal is dangerous, kids. Whatever happened, I hope he recuperates okay.

Isn't mayhem supposed to chime in here saying he is the one who beat the guy?
