Nooooo! I heard he was sick for a while but I wasn't expecting this. Hopefully there will still be a new OTC album.. Thank you for your amazing work on Black Foliage: Animation Music and Dusk At Cubist Castle. R.I.P. bro

devastated.
RIP

This is pretty horrible news. Elephant 6 rules.
|
| |
Wow. That's very unfortunate. I really enjoyed Dusk at Cubist Castle.
|
| |
I'm really torn up about this, I adore pretty much everything he was involved in. I was actually lucky enough to get a chance to meet him once at an Apples in Stereo show. He's a really cool guy in person, it's terrible that he's gone.
|
| |
@Nick and my cred thanks me for it. But really, it was a fun album to listen to. Sucks that he's dead.
|
| |
what!
this is so awful

|
| |
what a loss. RIP

MS-DOS R.I.P.

RIP

This is terrible, terrible news.
|
| |
Oh, this is unfortunate. I'm huge fan of The Olivia Tremor Control, as well as the other bands that formed after their break-up. These musicians never got the attention they truly deserved, certainly one of the greatest psychedelic artists of all time. RIP.
|
| |
It's unfortunate to see him go so soon, especially since he was so happy to be writing with OTC again. It was an awesome time when I discovered the Elephant 6 record label. So many great projects came out of that group that included Bill. OTC opened up my mind up to the amazing possibilities there are recording music, Black Foliage is absolutely surreal.
|
| |
Still kind of can't believe this. Glad I got to see them in April. Terrific performer.
|
| |
RIP, one of my favorite 90s bands. hope they still are planning on releasing some of the new material they were working on
|
| |
what a bummer
|
| |
Never heard of him or any of those bands
|
| |
@nash1311 If you like lo-fi or psychedelic indie rock, I definitely recommend both The Olivia Tremor Control and The Apples in Stereo. This guy used to work with Jeff Mangum from Neutral Milk Hotel after all, and I'm sure you've heard of that band if you have an account on this site lol. The entire Elephant 6 collective is essential if you're into that genre or scene at all though.
|
| |
RIP
^ Elephant 6 is one of the most influential groups on the modern "indie" scene, look it up you might learn something
|
| |
rip. could never get into olivia tremor control for some reason but it's still sad so see him die so young.
|
| |
I'm not particularly into that BUT I liked to hear new stuff so I'll check it out regardless
|
| |
Ah... I have heard Neutral Milk Hotel, Beulah, and Of Montreal though.
|
| |
I kinda despised OTC but Elephant Six was/is amaaaaazing
RIP either way
|
| |
i like most elephant six stuff that i've heard but i always thought olivia tremor control was kind of boring. maybe i should give them another shot, i've only listened to a few songs from them tbh but couldn't ever get into them.
|

Black Foliage: Animation Music is probably the best album to start with or for anyone who didn't like DACC, it's more solid than that album overall.
