01.11.11 | Lots of hangings. Listening to 4 now. |
kanecooper
01.11.11 | how inspiring |
omnipanzer
01.11.11 | Good list - never thought that many people would hang themselves considering how easy it is to fuck it
up... un less they were all into autoerotic asphyxiation? |
Counterf3it
01.11.11 | inb4 courtney killed kurt |
bjorkil
01.11.11 | The best music is done by depressed alcoholics. |
eternium
01.11.11 | Eh, people argue over several of these. I'm sure somewhere would argue over Layne Staley but I consider his situation to be a drawn out suicide. |
bloc
01.11.11 | Don't want to sound nasty or anything, but thanks to 4 one of my favourite bands was formed. |
Knott-
01.11.11 | happy list |
FadeToBlack
01.11.11 | cool stories bro |
omnipanzer
01.11.11 | "self-inflicted stab wounds" always makes me cringe. |
Enotron
01.11.11 | don't care for the list idea |
eternium
01.11.11 | At least it's an original list. I haven't seen one on here. |
WithHorsesInHerEyes
01.11.11 | 4 is awesome. Joy Division influenced a shit load of music I listen to. Too bad Ian had to go out like that. Same for the others too. |
FadeToBlack
01.11.11 | Worship - Fucked-Up Mad Max (jumped off a bridge)
Funeral - Einar Frederiksen (unknown) |
ConsiderPhlebas
01.11.11 | Smith stabbed himself to death? Grim. |
FadeToBlack
01.11.11 | also Christian Loos of Funeral, unknown |
eternium
01.11.11 | Was wondering who else was out there that I may have not been aware of. |
Cavs
01.11.11 | awesome

01.11.11 | 22rocks |
eyedea420
01.11.11 | necro-you did it should answer all the questions on suicide |
Enotron
01.11.11 | i dunno i mean i just don't see the point of making a list of bands who've had band members kill themselves. should prolly just discuss the music. |
kanecooper
01.11.11 | we get way worse lists here i dont think it's too big a deal |
eternium
01.11.11 | In most cases they were depressed while they were making the music and it had a major impact. |
pizzamachine
01.11.11 | Depressing list. |
Enotron
01.11.11 | fair enough |
eternium
01.11.11 | Thought about doing this list while listening to The Angelic Process. Really makes me wish I was going to local shows four or five years ago and could have seen them. |
eternium
01.11.11 | 21 is probably the most interesting of them all. Fucking psycho. |
foreverendeared
01.11.11 | huh? He really wasn't psychotic at all. |
foreverendeared
01.11.11 | He was depressed. That's all. |
ffs
01.11.11 | all these fellas got pwned |
SeaAnemone
01.11.11 | A) Does Richey Edwards count? Because that mofo was really fucking crazy/depressed/most likely killed himself
B) Obviously depression and suicide is a VERY sensitive subject for some, completely understandably... and while I don't think this list is necessarily in bad taste I can understand why people might |
bjorkil
01.11.11 | It would be more right to take Dawn of the Black Hearts in 21. |
kris.
01.11.11 | dave rubenstein's life was so fucked and depressing |
eternium
01.11.11 | Just because something is a touchy subject doesn't mean that it shouldn't be discussed. I think it should be discussed more actually.
bjorkil, I'm changing it to that. |
SeaAnemone
01.11.11 | "Just because something is a touchy subject doesn't mean that it shouldn't be discussed. I think it should be discussed more actually."
debatable |
eternium
01.11.11 | Well, now the artwork doesn't work for 16 or 20. Fuck.
Of course it's debatable. |
FadeToBlack
01.11.11 | change them to albums without apostrophes or other punctuation and the artwork will show up |
eternium
01.11.11 | Already did that. |
foreverendeared
01.11.11 | No one should have any problem with this list, it's not as if it glorifies suicide or anything. |
eternium
01.11.11 | There's not a single thing about suicide to be glorified by anyone. |
FadeToBlack
01.11.11 | grow up and deal with it |
eternium
01.11.11 | How is it tasteless? And it's a list of musicians who committed suicide and the state of mind that these people were in heavily affected the music that they made. I made it ambiguous on purpose so you can consider it whatever you want. |
Josh D.
01.11.11 | What is the picture supposed to be on 4? |
Josh D.
01.11.11 | What? |
accompliceofmydeath
01.11.11 | From Pokemon, duder. |
37er00
01.11.11 | my grandpa |
eternium
01.11.11 | Touchy subject but being silent on it probably hurts more than acknowledging it. By that I mean that if you think someone is suicidal or whatever, you shouldn't just ignore or refuse to talk about it because it bothers you but rather you should try to help that person.
You should know that I get sucked into these conversations whether I intend on them happening or not. |
Josh D.
01.11.11 | I found it online, nevermind, dum dums. |
37er00
01.11.11 | jerk |
Josh D.
01.11.11 | I thought you died last night. Welcome back. |
Josh D.
01.11.11 | You call it a Pokemon glitch, I call it CP 919, but ok. |
Josh D.
01.12.11 | Well, CP 919 was the original name, now it's PSR B1919+21. |
37er00
01.12.11 | i died |
dr2den
01.12.11 | fuck yes 9 |
Josh D.
01.12.11 | Cool. |
eternium
01.12.11 | What the hell is the deal with a Pokemon glitch? |
WithHorsesInHerEyes
01.12.11 | Pokemon is necessary in every list, yo. |
Josh D.
01.12.11 | No. |
FilthyBorgir
01.12.11 | Surprised you didn't say anything about Jimi Hendrix and his overdose |
ShadowAmI
01.12.11 | elliott smiths death was actually homicide, people just assumed it was suicide at the time because of how often he referenced suicide in his lyrics. |
TheEnigma
01.12.11 | "Steal the glamor from and death and before you die, oh, you should see city lights like rain dance and explode." |
Aids
01.12.11 | Cobain didn't kill himself, Courtney Love did and framed it as a suicide.
and yes, I actually believe this |
eternium
01.12.11 | Jimi Hendrix was accidental. |
climactic
01.12.11 | what a joyful list |
Enotron
01.12.11 | surprisingly i sympathize with the group who believes courtney love was responsible for cobain's death
and I have doubts as to whether hendrix's death was accidental. he was a very experienced and knowledgeable drug user, in fact any idiot knows that pills mixed with alcohol is deadly |
NigelH
01.12.11 | Elliott Smith got stabbed by his girlfriend. C'mon now. |
TheEnigma
01.12.11 | Avenged Sevenfold's "The Rev"
Thoughts? |
Enotron
01.12.11 | yeah i've never hear anybody express layne's death as suicide, was just an OD that was overdue |
eternium
01.12.11 | Layne was an overdose but after being addicted to drugs like that for over ten years, what else would you call it? He was slowly killing himself and the overdose death was inevitable. It's really another method of suicide. |
Enotron
01.12.11 | except that he tried to kick it multiple times and had entered rehab? he couldn't control it by that point, it wasn't some desire to die |
Curse.
01.12.11 | I thought the guy from INXS accidentally killed himself? That shouldn't really be considered a suicide then |
LegendofPittman
01.12.11 | Still listening to 4? Love that album. This is a ridiculously depressing list. |
eternium
01.12.11 | As for The Rev, he should know that it's common sense not to mix alcohol and pills.
Listening to Swans now. |
Countess
01.12.11 | I don't think the Michael Hutchence thing was a suicide |
Josh D.
01.12.11 | GGGAAAAAAARGLLLLLEEEE |
qwe3
01.12.11 | and you can do it too kids! |
Spec
04.20.11 | Not sure 22 really counts, though I see why you would want them on the list. |
brochenski
03.04.15 | wtf |
SharkTooth
03.04.15 | late to the party but 1 was a homicide |
ArsMoriendi
03.04.15 | Depressing, but interesting list. |
deathschool
03.04.15 | Why wasn't this featured?! |
SharkTooth
03.04.15 | prob 'cause 1 was incorrect |
deathschool
03.04.15 | You think his girlfriend killed him? |
StallionMang
03.04.15 | I still think it was a suicide, considering he'd already tried to kill himself tons of times before |
ArsMoriendi
03.04.15 | I just realized: Sid Vicious isn't on this list.. |
deathschool
03.04.15 | Yeah, pretty sure it was suicide. Lots of lyrics about it too. |
SharkTooth
03.04.15 | some evidence from the crime actually points otherwise(the misspelling of Elliott's first name, the lack of "hesitation marks", the girlfriend's tesimony, etc.) hell it was actually left open to possible homicide by the police |
deathschool
03.04.15 | I think that's because cases of self inflicted stab wounds are extremely rare |
SharkTooth
03.04.15 | yeah but typically in these cases there will be "hesitation wounds", which are to test out the effectiveness of suicide through stabbing, those were not present in Elliott's death |
RoundOnEndHiInMiddle
03.04.15 | Elliot's case is a really tragic one, but i doubt he was murdered. yes, there aren't any hesitation marks, but he was on a cocktail of various psychiatric drugs and amphetamines at the time, so it's possible that he was so far out of right mind that he wasn't thinking clearly enough to test the effectiveness. and iirc, he killed himself in the spur of the moment after a heated argument, which is why he didn't take the time to overdose or get a gun. he just found the first thing that he thought could do the job. it's certainly possible that he was murdered, but it's pretty improbable imo. |
AmericanFlagAsh
03.04.15 | This list is too depressing for me right now |
TalonsOfFire
03.04.15 | 22 wasn't suicide |
Silvius
03.04.15 | one member of doom metal band worship killed himself. http://www.last.fm/music/Worship/+images/86884325 |
Artuma
03.04.15 | the stories about 21 are fucking brutal |
