Shaun Steels (born Shaun Taylor-Steels, 22 August 1970) is a British rock drummer and bassist.
He replaced Bill Law in My Dying Bride, and once was a member of Anathema. Like many of the black metal musicians, he has a pseudonym and adopted the stage name 'Winter'.
Shortly before the release of A Line of Deathless Kings, Shaun Taylor-Steels announced his permanent departure from My Dying Bride due to health concerns.[1]
In the band's official statement concerning his departure, Taylor-Steels is quoted as saying, "I would just like to salute MDB for the good times and wish them all well in the future, I feel I am not ready to fulfill the duties in a manner befitting MDB at this time and have decided to stand down. I am sad to be leaving but at this time I feel it is for the greater good of the band".[2]
He now plays drums for the Norwegian metal band Vestige of Virtue alongside Kjetil Ottersen and Frode Forsmo.[3]
