Mark Linkous of Sparklehorse has committed suicide, according to a report from Rolling Stone. His family has released a statement reading, "It is with great sadness that we share the news that our dear friend and family member, Mark Linkous, took his own life today. We are thankful for his time with us and will hold him forever in our hearts. May his journey be peaceful, happy and free. There's a heaven and there's a star for you." [Pitchfork]
"Linkous' publicist confirms he was nearly finished with a new album that was due on Anti- Records."

R.I.P.


This was a shock this morning I was just reading about their new album. I've seen sparklehorse a few times

Here he is with Nina Pearson
