I still miss him bros.why did he have to die so early (and retire even earlier)?
Who is that?
>>130162029Mark Hollis of Talk Talk
I learned of his death on /mu/ and thought it was a generic gag "haha made you look" thread. Then I didRIP King
>>130161968>and retire even earlierbetter than release mediocre or forgettable albums as most musicians do
>>130161968One of a handful of musicians that inspire me to try being a better person overall.
>>130161968I always get this band mixed up with inxs
>>130162870why?
>>130161968He retired to focus on his family. He had a brother who died of a heroin overdose, which likely influenced that decision. He probably knew he could live a comfortable life on the It's My Life royalties alone. He was one of my favorite singers.
>>130161968Tago Mago was his favorite album
>>130170069for real? doesn't seem to have too much in common with his own music
>>130170069based, now I like him even more
>>130161968IT'S MY LIFEIT NEVER EEEEEEEEENDS
for me, it's The Colour of Spring
>>130161968Alan Holdsworth died? I didn't even know he was sick....
>>130162029Uncle Rico from Napoleon Dynamite
>>130171726same actually. specifically for me, it's give it up
>>130161968For me, it's ALL his albums. lol. Rest in peace goat
>that solo in After The Flood
>>130171809chromaticism kills
>>130172510pure bliss
>>130170198have you not listened to Spirit of Eden/Laughing Stock? obviously a.very different emotional palette to Can but you can hear the influence
>>130161968Rimworld music.
>>130162029george beatle
>>130174381nothing psychedelic about both albums
I prefer the synth pop hits to the critically acclaimed new agey stuff, guess that makes me a normie
>>130162085I still remember where I was and what I was doing when I first read the news on Discord. A core memory right there.
>>130172510>>130174350for me the bliss comes from the contrast between that fucked up noisy thing and the beautiful piano being played in the background at the same time.
>>130161968thought this was a joke thread about paul weller. brits all look alike
>>130178820kek I thought it was a joke thread about Ye
His synthpop output is better than the post-rock shittery
>>130161968most artists should retire at 35 and go and be a family man like Mark did
>>130179377The Colour of Spring achieves the perfect balance between their synthpop and post-rock eras
