My Sparklehorse

Yesterday I heard that Mark Linkous killed himself this past weekend. His "Goodmorning Spider" album is one that I listened to over and over when I was a teenager. His songs gave me hope, when I really believed I had none. His songs healed me to go on. It breaks my heart that he couldn't.

  2. Even Colin from Radiohead gave a shout out to Mark Linkous, he was truly a special guy.

    The similarities between him and Elliot Smith are uncanny, both with their thin spider web voices and tragic end.


    RIP Linkous
