Last night in Bucharest, Romania, the Romanian metal band Goodbye to Gravity were celebrating their album release party. The show resulted in tragedy when a fire spread quickly through the venue Colectiv, CNN reports. The fire reportedly killed 27 and injured at least 187 others. The Romanian newspaper Ziarul de Iasi reports that Goodbye to Gravity's guitarists Vlad Telea and Mihai Alexandru were also killed.
According to CNN, witnesses have claimed that pyrotechnics were responsible for the fire, though authorities are reportedly still determining the fire's cause. It's also been reported that Colectiv, the club built inside a Communist-era factory, only had one exit.
The Romanian government have declared a three-day national mourning, Reuters reports.
