Chris Cornell - RIP

[Cockney Mackem]

Another decent one IMO

Reported. Bond themes should not be a load of falsetto whining performed at a pace that makes John O'Shea look like Usain Bolt

 

[Jokei84]

Had a hell of a voice

Rip

 

[Cockney Mackem]

You don't say.

I only meant that there was no indication he'd been dealing with an illness or anything up to now

Better than shit 80s pop.

Terrible news, what a voice he had. That's three of the big Seattle Scene front men now gone, Kurt, Layne and Chris. Someone get Vedder wrapped up in cotton wool

Scott Weiland too.

Sorry shouldn't have been flippant on this thread. It just sounded funny when I read it.

Great cover...

 

[The Spezial One]

Of the 5 frontmen from the main grunge bands of the 90's only Vedder remains

 

[Arkle]

Scott Weiland too.

San Diego, surely? (rather than Seattle)

Sad news about Chris Cornell...

 

[Black Cat Gypsy]

I can't believe this!!

One of the first bands I loved during my grunge phase. Still like them and Audioslave. He had an amazing voice. Black Hole Sun was the first video I saw on MTV. I can remember the day we got the analogy system with the foreign channels and MTV Europe was one of the few you had in English. That song just change how I liked music at that age.

Sources tell Local 4 Cornell's wife called a family friend and asked him to check on the singer. That friend forced open the hotel room door where Cornell was found dead in the bathroom with something around his neck. Sources said it appears to be a suicide.

Thats what I had thought, "Sudden and unexpexted" usually points to suicide

Vedder and Staley weren't from Seattle either iirc.

Or heart attack?

 

[Trauntrian]

[the veteran]

Rip.. great singer... love a recent track of his called "nearly forgot my broken heart"

 

[jacko100]

Or heart attack?

yeah possibly but along with tragically they always use sudden and unexpected for suicide
