yeah, when i went to bed last night there was STILL no confirmation from real news sites, and i was sure it would be up when i got up today, but still nothing? so wtg?

I'm seeing all sorts of "official" news reports everywhere worldwide (Swedish press is carrying the story), but still no coroner statement or anything. weirdness.

[FuSoYa]

[minxnim]

i don't understand what there is to be confused about

 

[lizard]

I've heard of him but was not wicked familiar with his work. it's a sad story for sure...man, it takes stones to kill yourself with a knife. that's like committing seppuku!

 

[avi]

I've never been a fan, but yeah - it's tragic

 

[deadair]

both josh and nick



see me on AIM... i'll rip you X/O. it's a great album

 

[The Dope]

I just heard the news, ironically, while listening to XO. Actually, I have been listening to his albums all day for some reason. Weird. This is really sad. Going by his lyrical content on the last album, I figured he was getting happier or at least less unhappy.
