Me neither - this was someone that my kids introduced me to in the 90s. I still think of him as young (compared to me of course). So sad.

I saw him a bunch of times and he was my second favorite artist around '09 and '10... his catalog is so diverse, his vocal abilities were off the charts, and he was a true artist...

Even more tragic is CNN is reporting that it was ruled a suicide.

Very sad, truly one of the best voices in rock history. He was an amazing talent.

Man that sucks. He's way too young and family is left behind. So tragic.

I was never a fan of Soundgarden (nor grunge in general), but I'm a geek about vocals and he was easily one of the most recognizable and impressive singers of his time.

It might have had more to do the antidepressant he was taking -- at least, that's the family's story. They can cause paranoid or suicidal thoughts in the course of trying to cheer you up. Oh, and Soundgarden was due to headline a festival this weekend...
