Never listened to Huntress but nevertheless a definite RIP. Beautiful and talented, but sometimes the mirrors through which we view ourselves have cracks in them.

RIP
| | | Ugh. Condolences.
| | | Terrible news. Giving Starbound Beast a whirl right now since I never gave them a listen.
| | | Really sad news.
| | | uff, RIP.
| | | always a damn shame when this happens, RIP

RIP #fuck2018
| | | sad loss, RIP
| | | Damn... Rip
| | | Damn... it's always worse when it's suicide. Cancer and diseases, I understand. We age and get sick. It happens. But suicide... it's the person's own choice and that is saddening.
RIP
| | | Horrible. Rip.
| | | I still feel like not enough is done to support musicians with mental health issues like depression. Even in spite of high profile deaths including Chris Cornell and Chester Bennington last year.
| | | I'm not sure what else can be done. Plenty of us purchase their music, see them live, buy their merch, but what comes after that? Nothing could make their mental health issues go away, except for something like therapy or medication. And that's usually temporary.
RIP, regardless. But I'm wondering what ^ that commenter ^ had in mind.
| | | RIP Jill
