Talented multi-instrumentalist frontman of Sparklehorse, one of my favourite bands, has shot himself.

I was really looking forward to a new album from him sometime soon. He only released four albums with Sparklehorse and all of them are fantastic, dreamy, lysergic pop straight out of the top drawer.









Anyone who's missed them and wants to investigate should start with either Good Morning Spider or Dreamt For Light Years in the Belly of a Mountain, then It's A Wonderful Life and then Vivadixiesubmarinetransmissionplot. There's a whole wealth of brilliant music contained therein.

I don't normally have anything to do with NME but this article about him is bang on the money, I think.

Rayanne Graff: His name is George. Also, he started Spam.
Rayanne Graff: i spoke to him a couple of times and that was in October of 2009.
the doc: Wow, a proper old head
Rayanne Graff: Yeah, he was the 15th person to join.
satansrubberduck: I didn't directly start Spam. Also the proof of that long since disappeared.
Rayanne Graff: No, it didn't; the Spam spam spam you made in 2002 is on page 105 of the Spam board.
satansrubberduck: Oh. I looked for it years ago and couldn't find it. The colour tags are (thankfully) broken.
satansrubberduck: Odd to think it's been over a decade since I first got involved with 'Zine.
Claire: It's not odd to me since I've just had the exact same conversation with you...
