the body count on grunge/alternative lead singers is pretty high. however, metalhead lead singers live damn near forever.
do you think that has something to do with grunge singers being total pussies who can't handle the mosh pit lifestyle?

I think most just pass with drug problems. Im betting that this is where cornell was struggling. alcohol, drugs, man they cost so many good artists their lives.

Most good artists wouldnt have gotten to where they are without them so its a catch 22

what? lead singers in the mosh pit? no, its because grunge singers cant handle the metal like our devil gods, Halford, Dickinson and Osbourne.

As an 18 year old, I most definitely did not know Cobain was coming.

They were doing fun drugs like acid, lsd and cocaine. Chris drank and ate oxy like skittles for a while, but supposedly that's at least ten years behind him.

Sure, most of his catalog made him sound like a guy who had never had a happy day in his life. But it seemed he had turned that corner years ago. He sure seemed to be having fun at his Higher Truth shows.

EDIT: Past tense. God dammit.

all of these pale in comparison to the loss of Dave Williams, singer from Drowning Pool.

also let's not forget DJ AM, DJ from Crazy Town and pal of Travis Barker who was tragically killed from a combination of massive amounts of cocaine and being on an plane that exploded.

Yeah cobain was a surprise. I mean the dude sang some fucked up shit, all moody, rape me my friends type of shit, but never expected for him to shotty himself.
But any of the others shooting heroine is like death sentence just a matter of time.

I really hate the reminder of how appropriate Drowning Pool's hit has proven to be.

Especially after the goddamn thing was used in EVERY VIDEO GAME YOUTUBE EVER.

Shut the fuck up Dave, people keep dying.

Oh, wait, right.
