Mark Linkous took his own life...

I've never heard of them before, I'm listening to "It's a Wonderful World" right now. Interesting stuff, I can't quite put my finger on who it reminds me of.

What's their best album?

[Gandalf]

I've listened to some of their stuff over the years, but never bought any of their albums, by all accounts they were pretty good.

It's a shame he had to go like that, but that's life sometimes.

[Oggie]

Yeah, he seemed to be battling depression for a while, obviously it all got too much for him. On the upside, he did leave a legacy of great, heartfelt music behind him, music that people will always enjoy.

In response to CFH, here is the album 'It's a Wonderful Life', recorded in 2001. This is my personal favourite... but the debut album 'Vivadixiesubmarinetransmissionplot' runs it close. Let me know if you want that one too!


Sparklehorse - It's a Wonderful Life.

I've downloaded all of their albums now. It's pretty good, but it's the type of music that I have to be in the right sort of mood to enjoy.
