Oh wow, that's sad. Public Strain was pretty good and he seemed pretty talented at what he did. I wonder what happened.

RIP.

It was terrible to wake up to this news this morning.. I immediately went into my room and spun Public Strain on vinyl. Definitely my favorite album of the last five years.

RIP Chris.

If you're not aware of who the band "Women" are, this is quite honestly the most misleading and confusing news article title ever.

RIP though, 26 is far too young.

how the fuck is the title misleading? if you can understand the difference between the words woman and women, it should really be pretty self-explanatory.

i don't know if it was ever mentioned but i actually looked that up a while ago and it had to do with some heart problem he had.
