Bill Crook, former bassist of Canadian metalcore band Spiritbox + hardcore punk band Living with Lions has passed away. 2 of my favorite Canadian bands https://exclaim.ca/music/article/former-spiritbox-bassist-bill-crook-has-died

Health update + gofundme started for Dave Smalley (ALL, Down By Law, Dag Nasty...). Chemo + surgery in 2023, still fighting. https://www.gofundme.com/f/donate-to-help-our-friend-dave-smalley

Travis Dopp has died Small Brown Bike was a classic emo-post hardcore band for me. extremely sad about this one. Don't expect obits past like, BrooklynVegan.

No Devotion isn't too bad, they're fronted by the lead singer from post hardcore/emo legends Thursday and grindcore band United Nations (Geoff Rickly). No Devotion is more of a post-punk thing with heavy use of synths etc.

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex...in a terrible accident...y'know the f'in drill.

Tommy Wiseau, if that counts as a "younger" ""star""

Been seeing a few things in multiple Leslie West/Mountain related Facebook groups that Leslie West might be in hospital because his heart gave out. And he's not expected to live. Not that big of a surprise because he's a big guy and he has diabetes etc.. still sad as a huge Mountain fan if this is true.

Powfu , Canadian soundcloud lo-fi (c)rapper known for song "deathbed (coffee for you head)" is being announced as dead on Wikipedia. No sources however

Agh, really sad about this one. Great live shows and nice guy, got to talk to him in passing at a show once. Rest in Power.

The Sam Lloyd pick was a big gamble for me, but I got it, albeit sadly. Also got Jill Gascoine. I had Denis Goldberg on my list last year but cut him this year because I couldn't find anything new on him (although I did have him on my shadow list here, hmmm)

https://www.blabbermouth.net/news/falling-in-reverse-guitarist-derek-jones-dead-at-35/ Derek Jones, guitarist of post hardcore/metal act Falling In Reverse has passed away aged 35. Ronnie Radke has paid tribute on twitter. Cause of death has not been released but my guess is suicide. He lost his wife to cancer a few months ago. Also, I'll make the joke already: Guess he really did fall in reverse I'm here all night.

Because I wanted to put this somewhere... Jimmy Webb, owner of extremely famous and influential punk rock and metal clothing store "I NEED MORE" in NYC, has died. He is seen pictured here a few years back with the metal singer in my profile picture, Alissa White-Gluz of band Arch Enemy. R.I.P

Very sad, another Willie Wonka death too...

I'd also like to personally congratulate @Drewsky1211 on winning 10 pounds of coffee from Sir Creep's comment on page 1
