Lead singer of one of my absolute favorite bands, Soundgarden. Head man of Audio Slave. Singer, songwriter, and very talented musician.
A pioneer in music.
Only 52 when he died.

His music had a huge impact on my life. I will miss him dearly.

It’s very sad that a talented artist can battle inner demons through the hardest years, make it past 50 and lose it. I don’t believe suicide is ever a sudden decision but it does shock everybody who didn’t know the struggle.
I guess there’s a “full meter” on some lives.
