as if I all do with this blog is announce deaths.
well, unfortunately, here's another one:
North Carolina resident Mark Linkous, the driving force behind both Sparklehorse and the Dancing Hoods, took his own life yesterday.
while his exact age has not been confirmed, he was generally believed to be in his late 40s.
oddly congruous, a visit to sparklehorse.com reveals an opening page photo of Vic Chesnutt who took his life in December.
above is a photo from the Linkous' last appearance at Webster Hall in New York, and
below (here) is short, three-year-old interview I did with Mark for
Phoenix New Times in which he talks about his often crippling depression.
RIP.
