Another metal musician leaves the world this year. Too bad TGOS were truly great.
This is a small world indeed.

"It's a small world and I'm still alive. Remember that shit."

Not sure what he's implying here. :/

Sounds like a threat to anyone who speaks ill of the dead.

I suppose. I mean whenever a musician dies at a young age most people jump to the simple conclusion of an overdose or something similar related to the lifestyle. He's probably trying to keep those comments from surfacing while others deal with the grief, but at the same time people are allowed to say what they want.

I think criticisms of lifestyles are perfectly valid, especially when the outcome is serious health issues or even death.

Something something freedom of speech...

Not to take away from what happened. I didn't wanna turn this thread into anything other than respecting the guy's accomplishes while he was alive but just felt that quote seemed a bit weird.

Just out of curiosity would the same standard be applied to say Lars Ulrich or Axl Rose?

I hate to think what would happen if that news came up here. All it would take is one person to say the wrong thing... and you know someone would. haha

Looks like he left quite a big family behind - a wife and three kids. They're asking for donations to help with funeral costs.

Speak of the Devil, Karl just posted this message: "...Please understand, with regards to my post here from two nights back that I was in a bad place and had broken my sobriety - the "statement" had a definite dick head vibe that I don't want in my life anymore, it's not who I am or where I'm at. Please understand it came from a lot of hurt and booze. I'm sorry.

With regards to any future for TGoS, there can't be one now. And I'm very sad about this. I'd hoped we could iron out our differences and move on. Sadly that can't come to pass now."

Seems like a pretty heart-felt apology. Good on him for realizing it. It's not surprising alcohol was a factor - I'd probably get pissed too if a bandmate/friend passed away especially at a fairly young age.
