lokithelion Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 Committed suicide. Got details on my site cause I'm a ghoul. http://www.the1stfive.com/?p=60 I'm seriously fucking bummed out by this. Sparklehorse was one of those bands like Built to Spill for me in high school. So much great guitar rock. I don't think I'm ready for my high school rock idols to be dying. Shit.

scottheisel Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 I just read on MSNBC that he killed himself because of a text: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/35767351/ns/entertainment-music/ Knoxville Police Department spokesman Darrell DeBusk said Linkous shot himself outside a friend’s house around 1:20 p.m. Saturday with his own rifle. DeBusk said Linkous was staying with friends and became upset after receiving a text message. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
