RIP, Jhonn.

ODB and Balance in one weekend. this is too much.

this man was a genius and a true pioneer of experimental electronic, gothic, and industrial music. Psychic TV, Coil, Death in June, Current 93, 23 Skidoo, Zos Kia, and Nurse With Wound were all lucky enough to feel his direct influence. every other artist in the genre has benefited from his indirect inspiration.

Having been a Coil, Wound, Death in June and Current 93 fan
for many years it is sad to hear the news.
Big loss and so young.
Remember the song: First five minutes before violent death - or was it after?

it was a tragedy, but he went out at his peak, as a true artist should. And perhaps it was that he was not going to stop, because he was incapable of doing so... which was understood and fate helped him become a legend, although i disagree with myself because i want more Coil... and more expression... and more Batwings... this is very emotional
