Looks like the aids denialism was the bassists thing. It's strange how little information there is on it online.

Yeah wasting light would easily make my top 200 albums ever and they have 5 songs that would make my top 1,000 songs ever.

His surfer look and childish smile was his trademark image. He was always looking happy next or behind Dave Grohl, and thats how i will remember him.

Also arguably the second most famous drummer in the world...and also the second most famous drummer in his own band.

“Dave can't keep getting away with it!”

All that’s left is a bass player...

In all seriousness, though, Taylor’s death is quite sad. I really like Foo Fighters, and when he came onboard, the Foos were suddenly a band with personalities. He was not only a skilled drummer, but he was also excellent vocalist (listen to “Cold Day In The Sun” from In Your Honor or to “Holy Man” from the deluxe version of Dennis Wilson’s Pacific Ocean Blue).

Echoing the 'Wasting Light' love. Never been a huge Foo fan (I like them fine), but that album is one of my all time favorite rock albums for sure.

"Hawkins had ten substances in his system at the time of his death, including opioids, benzodiazepines, tricyclic antidepressants, and THC"

holy fuck

may he rest in peace, will never forget the first time I heard his performance on The Pretender, legendary drummer.
