This is bullshit! i'll never understand what goes through these minds, what the hell he was thinking? RIP but i think he's an idiot, ending his life with such cold way. I hope that musicians would stop acting as if they are perfect.

man that sucks, he was really young. but I still think that if h decided to do it, was because he had his reasons, so I respect it, although I think it's a shame. R.I.P

RIDM = Rest in death metal... I don't think metalheads really want to rest in peace. Fuck tradition

Go to hell, you who say suicide is an emo and trendy thing to do. Go make your bad jokes somewhere else. A shame he felt this way.

apparently I more or less knew the guy. I heard yesterday that I had bumped into him quite a few times in my local record store which he also went. From a reliable source I heard that he somehow couldn't handle the pressure of Brutus becoming quite big (especially in the dutch death metal scene) R.I.P.

So young , just 25. I dont know the band, but this is a loss none the less. R.I.P M.Luysterburg. Much symphathy to family, friends and the band. P.S: Second what Nervel said, take your views of suicide and post them in a thread if there is one. This thread isnt the place for them. R.I.P.
